The former Aston Villa man was in fine form for Claudio Ranieri's side as the Foxes swept Sunderland away with a breathless display to emerge as 4-2 victors on the opening day of the new Premier League campaign,The former England under-21s ace, who signed for the East Midlands 
club last summer, ran towards his 
family in the stands, gesturing up at 
the sky, after scoring Leicester's fourth of the afternoon.
"At 
the minute we have my girlfriend's brother Conor Fulford living with us.
 He was getting into me last night saying you need a celebration, you 
need to do something for my mum.
"We were wracking our brains and 
couldn't think. Chloe has been saying her mum has been up there putting a
 few things right and she has definitely helped me out today."
Albrighton
 was brought into the set-up at Leicester by former manager Nigel 
Pearson, but says new boss Ranieri is settling in well after his 
surprise appointment last month.
"It has been brilliant, he noticed we did well towards the end of the
 season so he has not changed too much. He has come in and put his mark 
on the side and come in with a couple of fresh ideas. 
"We are 
working on them and it showed today it worked. Especially today we felt 
confident attacking and felt like we could create something and get 
goals every time we were going forward.
"When you feel like that and are in a confident mood it is only good for the team."
