Noni holds court on winning World Cup and being Three Lions basketball king

- FROM JOHN CROSS in KANSAS CITY

NONI MADUEKE admits he has a super competitive mindset - even when it comes to basketball.

And the Arsenal winger insists that edge is what has carried him to the "pinnacle" of the World Cup and is the reason why he thinks the Three Lions can go all the way this summer.

Madueke played in Atlanta over 12 months ago in his non-stop year for Chelsea against Los Angeles FC in the Club World Cup before his £52m move to Arsenal.

Now, after helping the Gunners win their first title in 22 years, he is brimming with confidence - even when it comes to throwing basketball hoops in the team hotel in Kansas City.

So, who is the best?
