Former Aston Villa, Wigan, Leicester and West Brom midfielder Marc Albrighton is our special guest on No Tippy Tappy Football.

Marc is alongside Sam Allardyce & Natalie Pike to talk all things football from living the dream of playing for his boyhood club to reaching the pinnacle of English football and lifting the Premier League with Leicester City.

Marc and Sam start off the podcast with a touching tribute to the former Leicester assistant manager, Craig Shakespeare as well as former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson.

The former Aston Villa midfielder talks about his love for the club, living the dream of wearing the famous claret and blue shirt as well as the heartbreaking moment he knew his time was up at the club.

They then talk in great depth about Marc's time at Leicester City and how he almost joined Sunderland under Gus Poyet, making history by winning the Premier League, playing against Lionel Messi and why away fans shouldn't wind up Jamie Vardy...

Marc then discusses his time working under the new Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca, his repetitive training methods, players forcing transfers and Dewsbury-Hall's move to Chelsea.

Finally, in our new segment 'True Or False' we ask, 'Is Carlos Corberan a Premier League level manager' and 'Will Lee Carsley get the England job permanently?'

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars?
