Aston Villa fullback Cash warns England: Mbappe just unstoppable

Poland right back Matty Cash warns England that Kylian Mbappe is unstoppable.

The French forward is already the top scorer at the World Cup, leading his side into the quarter finals.

France will now take on England in the last eight, with the Three Lions besting Senegal in the last round.

“Amazing, obviously unbelievable, probably my toughest opponent," said Aston Villa defender Cash after his side was beaten by France in the same stage.

“I'd have said before that Raheem Sterling was my toughest opponent. When we faced Manchester City he was brilliant. Sterling's rapid but I think Mbappe is electric. He's the quickest.

“I spent the afternoon watching his clips, but I'm watching the videos while lying in bed. In real life, he's burning my legs, that's the difference. It's a massive difference.

“He's a different level. I play in the Premier League week-in, week-out, and I play against top-class wingers, but he's easily going to be the best player in the world. Speed, movement, look at his finishing. He's got everything. He put two in the top corner, one in the left and one in the right."
