Why are the french NT not like azzuri, spain or england?

Question

i mean have most players with french names?

like jacque, francois lol etc etc?

i am not a racist but its like chinese immigrants representing all of the USA's table tennis and most of the badminton roster at the olympics.

their main players in their successful years were all sub saharan african, north african.

case in point gallas, zidane, trezeguet.

platini's parents too were italian.

now look at the azzuri, even if you dislike them, the team demographics represent national demographics. even england though they're not that good.

is it because the typical french dude cannot play?

not attacking anyone or trying to stir up racist sentiments.

peace.

FQ: is france mediocre without zidane?

i think they're just a notch above england but nowhere in top 5 in europe.

Answer 1

True that mate.

Truuuuueeee that.

Answer 2

thanks GOd

someone says it in yahoo answers!!!

Answer 3

Yeah most of them aren't very French.  

Answer 4

My dad and I were having this same conversation, LOL. If you look at the French players, only some were actually born in France. A lot of them are born in French colonies far away from France.

FQ - They're definitely not nearly as good without him. LOL Anyone is better than England. xD

Answer 5

um 1st of all let me explain gallas isnt african nor is most of the black people on the french national team i can only think of three people :viera.diarra.and mandana they have more but they didnt make the euros so i wont name them since makellele retired im not considering him as 1 the reason this is because there are two islands in the carabean that are 'french' and most of there parents go to france instaed of staying over there gallas.anelka.henry,malouda,abidal,evra,... more

altough you say ribery is overrated i dont think so when you have multiple famous clubs like milan man u and real wanting at you at the same time people all over the world must think your good that's how i see it like you said most of the french players are from other countries but there are several good players such as toulalan,coupet,clerc,guily and rothen.the reason i think the white french players stay in the fench league which is not as skillful as the others.but yea i know eric contona was like the best french player but if you take it back to 98most of the team was white and thats the only time the won the world cup so yea and for last france not to be in the top five in europe i find theat to be crazy  most of the other teams didnt even when the world cup at this moment in time france is surly not in the time but in overall ill say theyre second brhind germany ,england sure isnt they didnt even make it to the euros and i find them to have the best players in europe.

Answer 6

well yes, it seems kinda racist to question these players tho as you said thats not your intention. but nways, these guys are french citizens regardless of origins (some were in fact born in france) and when they play they represent france not the countries of their elders so...and besides, if ethnic cleansing is suggested (lol) it is appalling (!) mch more so in sports where all the good things abt humanity is supposed to be celebrated, so unless thats carried out (shudders) then footy not only in the NTs but even in clubs (brazilians becoming italian citizens and playing for Milan hellooo) will always have this shall we say interracial quality. not a bad thing either coz many of these players are good (some great even), and football is so mch btr for having them and as a footie fan i would be furious if by some inane rule we exclude these talented ppl frm playing for NTs just coz  they're "immigrants'.
