Host Matt Spiro is joined by 'Across the Channel' regular Jonathan Johnson and a special guest this week as the former Strasbourg, Nantes and AS Roma midfielder Ricardo Faty makes his debut on the pod. As well as discussing Les Bleus' two opening World Cup qualifying victories against Ukraine and Iceland, Ricardo speaks candidly about his time as a boy at Clairefontaine - what he learned at France's esteemed academy and why the place is so special - and opens up on the subject dual nationality. The ex-midfielder, who played for France at youth level before representing Senegal, offers fascinating insight on a topic that continues to stir debate in the French media.
