Joe Cole and Ashley Cole and former England defender Joleon Lescott discuss team-mates and opponents from their careers: what was the weird noise Micah Richards used to make when he was running? Who was the biggest target for heavy tackles at Manchester City? And why were Didier Drogba's studs a problem?

They look ahead to the FA Cup 5th round with Preston goalkeeper Freddie Woodman, who also reveals what it was like having Gareth Southgate as his godfather. Joleon gives his thoughts on some of the best English youngsters he’s worked with, including Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers, Burnley keeper James Trafford and Ipswich forward Liam Delap, and the guys debate if Plymouth can produce another shock against Man City after their win over Liverpool last time.
