They've had 3 Prem promotions in the last 15 years and always used to beat us. Then they finally took hit and went down to League One but it seems like it just strengthened them. They look like they're aiming closer to the top 6 of the Prem now than just surviving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite interesting really. Giroud was born in Italy Greizmann - Germany Nabil Fekir - Algeria Mbappe - Cameroon In actual fact, they have only 2-3 players in the France squad, who are French. Pavard, Thauvin and Lloris I think You've got that well wrong. Giroud, Mbappe and Grirezmann were all born in France. Pogba, Kanye, Varane, Matuidi, Pavard and Lloris were also born in France so that's the nucleus of their team. Only Umtiti was born outside of France in their starting 11 in the final.

Yes, but Farage is right to some extent, and the accusation of racism is wide of the mark. When white-skinned immigrants come in from eastern Europe, they're not going to the Cotswolds, Kensington or Sloane Square. They're going to areas where public services are already stretched to breaking point, areas coincidentally where the ethnic minorities tend to dwell. It's the same situation in the southern US states where incoming Mexicans are taking the resources of the black community, and competing for the same jobs. Farage believes, as I do, that we should prioritize migration from former British colonies whom we owe an allegiance to, migrants who also happen to be non-white. So how Farage can be branded a racist bearng all that in mind is beyond me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zidane was born in France but I think at least one of his parents were Algerian. England have taken advantage of foreign players in Rugby and Cricket for years so we can't really become too objective of players parentage.

And there's something else Farage ain't wrong about. Mass migration from Europe pushes down wages. Two people for one job = power in the hands of the employer. Two jobs for one person = power in the hands of the worker. That's why the common people rose out of serfdom after the Black Death, because the workforce was so diminished. It's like the early 80s with 3.5 million people out of work and too few jobs to go round, and asking that drowning man where he works. OK, you can understand the Tories favouring it because it helps business by boosting their profits, but how can Labour sanction it? Up the workers my bottom.
