Tucked away amongst the usual round of tabloid transfer speculation in the Sunday papers is a beauty of a story from the Sunday People.
The People report that France's World Cup aspirations could be undermined by a ban on Vicks Vaporub!
Patrick Vieira is a big fan of the substance, smearing it on his shirt before every match to keep his airways clear.
Several of Vieira's Arsenal team-mates also daub themselves in Vicks and ex-gooner Paul Merson is a fan as well. But apparently Vicks is an illegal substance in Japan because it is classed as a dangerous stimulant, so Paddy and the rest of Arsenal's representatives will have to do without it this summer.
Just in case you're planning on going to the World Cup here's a list of do's and don'ts (including some advice on Vicks!)
