  • How Mbappe can create World Cup Déjà Vu
    May 13 2026

    Matt Forde is joined by comedian Alex Brooker and World Cup winner Emmanuel Petit to discuss the hopes of France ahead of the World Cup this Summer!


    He explains to them why France are more set up to win trophies than England and why he expects them to go very close in America.


    He tells us what the French fans really think about captain Kylian Mbappe and why the Real Madrid star will never be considered as great Zinedine Zidane regardless of what he achieves in a blue shirt.


    And he tells us what French fans think of England and their chances, and believes the Three Lions should have won that game in Qatar four years ago.

    Matt Forde is joined by comedian and star of Last One Laughing Maisie Adam to discuss all things food ahead of the World Cup this summer!


    They speak to celebrity football chef Jonny Marsh to find out what the diet of a World Cup footballer looks like and how important it is at the highest level.


    He tells us how an impromptu Christmas dinner with Kevin De Bruyne ended with him working with the likes of Ilkay Gundogan, Kyle Walker and the Murray Brothers.


    He explains the demands some top footballers have with one of his clients demanding a different meal every day for 10 months!


    And he explains why players will have to alter their diet in America this summer with conditions set to be far more extreme to what they are used to during the season.
