Marc Albrighton's Leicester's The Place Highlights
Some of the best quotes from the long-serving Fox's appearance on the podcast.
Becoming A Fox
”I chose Leicester in the end because I looked at the squad and saw players like Danny Drinkwater, Matty James and Andy King and felt I’d fit in at the Club. Location was a big part as well. Two years later, we’d won the league. It’s these sliding doors moments.”
Contributing To The Great Escape
“I slotted into the right wing-back role. It was the first time I’d played there and loved bombing on. Once we got one and then two wins, it was just momentum. The whole mood just changed. We played with confidence and it snowballed.”
Going The Distance In 2015/16
“I look back at the 2016 season and the intensity that we started with, we just put teams on the back foot. The defeats that we had, we bounced back straight away, we never lost two in a row. We won the next game and then we went on a run. I think that’s crucial.”
A Special Club
“Some of the dressing rooms I’ve been in, some of the lads that I’ve met along the way and the relationships I’ve built with the players, it’s special. There’s a feeling about Leicester and the group and how close-knit everyone is.”
His Legacy At LCFC
“It’s about leaving the Club in a position where they haven’t gone backwards. With the honours that we’ve achieved, I don’t think it would be seen like that. But to be back in the Premier League next season, that was always the main objective.”
