Description:

What does it really take to lead at the highest level of English football — and what happens when the battle goes far beyond the pitch?


In this special interview on the talkSPORT Daily, Henry Winter and Shaun Custis sit down with Arsenal legend and England icon Tony Adams for a powerful and deeply personal conversation.


Adams opens up with striking honesty about his life away from football, reflecting on his long struggle with alcohol addiction, the moment he accepted he needed help, and how seeking support ultimately changed — and saved — his life. He explains how those experiences reshaped him as a man, a leader and someone now determined to help others facing similar battles.


On the pitch, Adams revisits some of the defining moments of his career, including unforgettable memories of Euro ’96 and the responsibility of captaining Arsenal through one of the most successful eras in the club’s history.


Honest, reflective and deeply human, this is a compelling conversation with one of English football’s most influential figures — offering insight not just into the game, but into resilience, accountability and redemption.
