eh, I've no problem with immigrants playing for national teams. The naturalisation process exists for a reason. Besides, many of them moved to their new country at such a young age that they're much closer culturally to that country than the one they were born in.

Yes, that reason is money.

I don't think immigrants should play for national teams, this kills the whole purpose of national competition and I'm happy we have none on our team. But I'm against the process of destroying nations that's taking place in Europe in general.

I mean, look at this. I understand there is global warming, but this is just wrong.

Are you trying to say that Anelka who was born in France didn't have the right to play in the national team?
