The Guardian's Ed Aarons joined us this week to give us an overview of his latest book 'Made in Africa - The History of African Players in English Football'

Ed Aarons gives us insight into the sometimes forgotten about World of African Football, and we speak about how African players are treated both in today's game as well as historically.
