Brian looks at the meteoric rise of Kylian Mbappé, whose goal in the 2018 World Cup final made him the first teenager since Pelé to score in soccer's biggest game. We'll discuss the contradictions of contemporary soccer, where the joy of stories like Mbappé's sits alongside high-level corruption. Also: three classic Arsenal jokes and the difficulty of dragging the creator of the universe into county court.
