Lisandro Martínez has called out Manchester United’s hierarchy, and Sam Allardyce admits that “a lot of the statement is true”. On this special episode of No Tippy Tappy Football, Big Sam and Karl Robinson join Natalie Pike to debate Martínez’s comments, Jason Wilcox’s role in recruitment and who really has control at Old Trafford.

The panel discuss whether United’s problems run deeper than one player’s outburst, what needs to change under INEOS and how the club should handle Martínez. Karl takes a particularly strong stance, questioning whether the defender should play for United again.

Plus, what happens next for Michael Carrick? Could Antonio Conte be an option, and would things look different if Gary Neville owned the club?

Is Harry Kane England’s greatest ever striker? Is Jude Bellingham on course to become one of the greatest players in England’s history? And how will Manchester City respond to the latest developments?

Big Sam Allardyce is back on No Tippy Tappy Football to discuss the biggest talking points from the international break and the Premier League.

Sam gives his verdict on Thomas Tuchel’s England after four games, before discussing Jude Bellingham’s incredible rise and whether the Real Madrid midfielder is already ahead of Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard and Paul Scholes at the same age.

Harry Kane is also in the spotlight after reaching 91 goals in 125 England appearances. Sam debates whether Kane is England’s greatest ever striker and chooses between Kane, Alan Shearer, Wayne Rooney and Michael Owen.

Sam then answers your questions, including what Premier League managers spend too much time coaching, what teams don’t practise enough and whether modern football managers overcomplicate the game.

Plus, Big Sam reacts to Cristiano Ronaldo’s treatment by Portugal, Manchester City’s trip to a potentially hostile Anfield and the toughest football grounds he experienced during his managerial career.

The episode finishes with Sam reflecting on the Legends of Football Awards, his conversations with David Moyes and Roy Hodgson, and where Thierry Henry ranks among the greatest players he faced as a manager.
