It seems Kylian Mbappe is so good he's made former England star Daniel Sturridge randomly break into song.
The Paris Saint-Germain forward has made a terrific start to the World Cup, scoring three goals in two matches for France, who booked their place in the Round of 16 with a group match to spare.
Mbappe has three goals and an assist in two matches at Qatar 2022
And Sturridge expects more goals to flow for the 23-year-old in Qatar.
"I think Mbappe will win the Golden Boot. I just think he's a special player," Sturridge told Sky Sports.
"Just his abilities, the runs he makes, he's always shooting as well which is important. People probably don't look at that stat much but the more shots you take the more goals you score.
"And I think he gets himself in position to score goals, he creates his own goals as well."
The interview then took a very surprising turn as Sturridge hilariously broke out into song about the superstar.
"And that's why I'd probably say Killy Killy - Mbappe, Mbappe, Mbappe, ohhhhh!" Sturridge sung. "That's what we say."
Perhaps what was even more impressive is that, quick as a flash, Sturridge resumed his serious analysis of Mbappe without so much of a smile.
"But I think he's a special player," Sturridge added. "There are a few other players in there, England have the likes of Harry Kane who can detonate, Raheem Sterling and Bukayo Saka are playing well.
"There are a lot of players really but I think Mbappe's the one that stands out for me the most."
