Summary

Days before she could become the third U.S. player in history to win FIFA's Women's World Player of the Year award, Carli Lloyd joins the Planet Fútbol Podcast. Lloyd, who joined our podcast back in August as well, talks to SI's Grant Wahl (twitter.com/grantwahl) about being up for FIFA World Player of the Year, and also delves into the hot-button issue of equality across men's and women's players. Wahl, SI's Ben Lyttleton (twitter.com/benlyt) and Avi Creditor (twitter.com/avicreditor) also take a spin on Europe's coaching carousel, which has already seen some of the biggest names in management change addresses and surely has more moves on the way. Where will Pep Guardiola go? Is Arsenal a viable possibility? How will Zinedine Zidane fare at Real Madrid? == The Planet Futbol Podcast is brought you by the SeatGeek app, available in app stores and at seatgeek.com.
