Description
Jimbo, Mauricio Pochettino, Michael Cox and James Horncastle study two groups that feature two of the favourites - France and Argentina.
Mauricio gives us his insight into managing the famed front three of Messi, Mbappe and Neymar. Hear why he got unlucky with Messi, wanted more consistency from Mbappe and loved every second of Neymar.
As for Argentina, will the confidence gained from having won the Copa América power them on to a first World Cup since 1986?
We check in with Julien Laurens on the world champions France who the rest of the panel are expecting to bore us silly in the group stage.
Plus can we call Denmark dark horses? Can Poland finally deliver at a World Cup? And can you imagine rooming with Diego Maradona?
Produced by Charlie Jones.
