• No-one is Messi, except Messi

  Kyle explains what was behind his widely-publicised chat with Joao Felix in the Napoli tunnel at half-time where he was heard saying, “Just pass the ball - we are not Messi.” This leads to a chat about heated debates in the dressing room and whether he and Michael Brown preferred an arm around the shoulder or a kick up the backside.

Browny asks Kyle about the jokers in the Milan squad and at some of his former clubs: which Milan player is now speaking English because of Kyle? Why should you never go for Riyad Mahrez? And who has the “strongest arms in the world”?Don’t forget to check out Kyle and Browny’s first Q&A episode, where you’ll discover how they spent their first paycheck and the one match they wish they’d never bothered playing in.Listen here exclusively on BBC Sounds: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0l4zvx0If you want to ask Kyle and Browny a question about themselves, about something to do with football or something completely random, email [email protected].
