[QUOTE="Big Ewis, post: 570010, member: 57076"] Right, but it's still unfair if he's born and raised and trained elsewhere. I'm by NO MEANS a soccer/football fan, but Zidane is a french footballer because he was trained in France. He's a French professional athlete, not someone we bought off from Algeria coz he's good. Arabs don't understand that, they say "no no no he's arabic ! he's algerian !" coz they're fallacious dumbasses obviously... Because he's so young, and the only pro ball he's ever played is French all the way (ASM Clermont and France in a month) I'm semi-okay with it; but just imagine if this occurrence gets blown out of proportion, France or other nations (NZ included) could turn into the Fiji national rugby union team in about another 2-3 years of recruiting, by the time we hit the RWC 2015 !...of course I exaggerate, but point's made.
