One of these billions will be James who will be up at 7 am to watch the game.

“I’m not gonna chose. Umm, what time is the match? ‘7 am.’ 7 am, okay, cool. So I can get up and watch it. I just want to see a great match like the rest of the world, besides who’s ever rooting for friends or Argentina; so we’ll see.”

Messi is undoubtedly one of the greats if not the greatest of all time but James also puts Mbappe in that conversation, despite his young age.

“I mean, it’s gonna be a great one, and look forward to seeing, you know, two of the greatest who have ever played that sport go at it. It’ll be fun.”
