France has had the most native players and coaches in the last 4 World Cups… and their dominance has been on the rise. Players like Kylian Mbappe and Paul Pogba are the children of immigrants and the product of the French soccer academy system. French- born players have played for Togo, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Argentina, Portugal, and many more.

Vox correction it doesn’t imply dominant immigrant ghettos (not cool using that word either) is just means suburbs for example the Banlieue to the west the Hautes de Seine (92) is the richest department of all France , and is not heavily immigrant like let’s say the north , get your facts straight before making a video we know you did it in a positive way but as informative video is important to present facts.
2:59 will it happen again ????
mzindpendent7 That's true, I guess that they use "banlieue" like that because medias took this word in some depreciative fashion during violence peaks in the past, showed in the american style : exageration, not in touch with reality.
"Banlieue" is an old word, used in town planning back in the XVIIIe, with a lot of evolution and nuance in its meaning.
Indeed, "ghetto" is very inappropriate in this context. In France, we would use the word "cité", as deprived neighborhood, to describe some suburb with a bit more of violence, drugs or other social issues. Or no word, because each place is different.
Excellente vidéo. Félicitations.
The true word used in french media to qualify a "banlieue" as a immigrant dominant ghettos is "Cités". Litteraly it means cities but when used as the cities (les cités) in a suburb context, it means poor ghettos with high criminality, often seen in the french media and politics as immigrant dominated area.

The Law France won. All the time ! Every teams have a French born player or at least a player trained in France.
I’m more curious about why Croatia is so good but such a small country
Like uruguay and netherlands smallness makes it easier to scout talent and develop it.
Croatia isn’t good they just got lucky
@@Wise__guy nahh they're finalist of the last world cup as wel, they're good.
@@Wise__guy
They are very good because they have experience, have a system that fits the squad, and are methodical in their approach.
Luck did not carry them to a final in 2018 and a semifinal in 2022.
@@Wise__guy yeah made finals last WC and semis this one but lucky smh
Also a great thing about French football system (this applies to many european football system I think) is that football leagues are pyramidal systems. Where you have couple of national leagues, then regional leagues, then local leagues. Every year, the top teams goes to the league above, and the last teams goes to the lower leagues. Great thing is that it push the competition while allowing small/poor clubs to go higher if they have great results. And biggest clubs who have their team in the first league, can have their "reserve" second team in the third league. Allowing to switch players from the reserve team to the first team as they want. So big clubs can have significant training center where they will train and evaluate new talents in their reserve team.
in america there is no real tension rooting for a team thats not very good because they all pay to stay on top, in europe relegation battles can often be more exciting than who wins imho
similar in england
We can prob. Incorporate ncaa into such model.
This is standard approach in whole soccer europe (and i believe its similar in most fifa countries) , so its not special at all but it differs from the us system.
Ironically, America is the most socialist when it comes to sports, lol. European relegation is the most merciless, capitalistic version of sports.

95%? What's the source?
@@guilhermenunes3044 95% of these 61 sorryyy
It's fun when you enslave a continent and use that to select players worldwide and not nationally. If Brazil had colonized most of Africa, Im sure most players would be Brazilian. Nationality is just a formality. Most france players should be representing their african origin countries. Zidane was from Algeria.
@@paulocymbaum1566 why they « SHOULD » be representing their africain origin? They are ALL born and raised in france.
And don't worry about the African national teams 98% of Senegalese Tunisian or Cameroonian players are players born and raised in France and even like that there is enough for the french national team lol.
They are free to choose between their two countries like the example of Zidane that you gave and he chose france.

Riyad Mahrez, August 2018: "Paris region, Ile de France, there are the best players in France, because we always play outside, there are small pitches everywhere. When you're young, you want to play with the older ones. When I go out in England, I never see people playing outside"
Rain always come down here😭
This is especially true in USA. it's always a good laugh when people say they even have a chance of winning the WC.
Thierry Henry, Lilian Thuram, Chritian Karembeu, Bernard Diomède, and Bernard Lama are not immigrant or son of imigrant. They come from the overseas territories of France. It's like saying Hawai is not part of America.
Not quite. Hawaii is more like Corsica.
Nope, there is no diffierence between Corsica and French Guyana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Reunion, Mayotte. They all are French Region, like Normandy, or Alsace, some are just further. I'm born in Cayenne, French Guyana, a French teritory since longer than Corsica, i'm a French citizen by law not born in a foreign country, not an immigrant. Even if i'm black and the Racist Pig don't like that :D
Auriël OK hold up don't call me a racist pig
Auriël because French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Mayotte and Reunion are considered overseas departments, and some of them have football teams, although not FIFA sanctioned
Is it the FIFA who determine who is an immigrant or not ? Born in French territory, not an immigrant. End of the discussion.
These players were born in France, grew up in France, were trained by the French educational and football system. Their mother tongue is French, and most of them do not master the language of their origin country ... and have a knowledge of their parent's culture which remains approximate.
They know only too well that they owe their success to France, and are proud to defend the colors of their country. Even those who play today under the colors of other countries and possess dual nationality have all one day caressed the idea of playing for France. They remain a pride for our football training system, and prove every day the competence and quality of our academies.
Each country has its own definition of nationality. In France, it is not blood that defines nationality. Otherwise our compatriots from French overseas departments and territories would not be French.
French nationality is a social pact. We are French if we cherish the French language, and a certain way of life. We are French if we adopt a number of values such as democracy, human rights, gender equality, and laicity. These values are summarized by our national motto: Liberty, Equality, Fraternity. You will notice that after the World Cup victory, many players of the French national team have publicly resumed this motto, or declared "Long live the Republic" to show their commitment to their country, to celebrate the victory.
Ironically, the player whose attachment to France could be questioned is Lucas Hernandez, who was born in France but grew up in Spain and mastered Spanish better than French. But nobody questions his attachment to France because he corresponds to the inconcient representation of a French man.
I apologize for my approximate English and I specify that I am a Frenchman of Moroccan origin with both nationalities.
Merci!!
You sound like Macron the imperialist
I am from morocco but born in the Netherlands and grown their up but my mother tongue is still the berber language (from morocco) but i still am a moroccain who is born in Holland so do they look at me in the Netherlands..
Imagine Nigeria or Japan was in Frances position, the citizens would protest against the national team. Lucas might not have been raised in France, but he is French by blood no? Umtiti, Areola, Varane and Dembele aren't. How do you west Europeans not understand this? I am not European by the way, I'm just baffled by your "mentality"...
@Jerome Builles French blood is the blood of the descendants of the people who fought for France. Of course now I don't think it can identified anymore as there are already millions of African and Middle eastern blood mixed with them. As for Varane, is he not a 2nd generation immigrant? Is what I was told. Anyways, I see no profit in arguing about one player out of dozens. Varane could have all French roots (let's assume he does) there's Umtiti, Mbappe, Dembele, Mandanda, Pogba, Kante, Matuidi, Fekir, many many more who prove my point.
*4 years later, and now Morocco finally defeats Portugal 1-0, same score, for different teams.*

Instead of insulting France for having a lot of black in their team, just respect and admire how much this country give to the world and to the football.

3:12 Lilian Thuram, Christian Karembeu and Bernard Lama(circled in red) are not immigrants, they are from the French Islands which are already French territory. Get it right!
And varane
Did not made his research properly
Just because they're French territory doesn't mean they're French
WATCH MY PLAYLISTS FOR THE TRUTH PLEASE ! ! ! Lol they are. They come from french territory so they are french.
It's the same in USA with Hawai. They are US citizens
Bernard* Lama isn't even from an island, he was born in Tours ...
The English Cricket Team too has the most immigrant players such as Jofra Archer ( Carribean ), Ben Stokes ( New Zealand), Eoin Morgan ( Ireland ), Jason Roy ( South Africa ), Adil Rashid ( Pakistan ), etc
😂😂 true
In case anyone is wondering, this year 60 player from the world cup were born in France and for 95% of them training on the way to become pro was also in France.
indeed, with the mayority of them with african roots unlike the mayority of france population
another factor: the young people in these banlieues are super motivated to be good at football, it's a way to escape their situation, at least in dreams. meanwhile "rich white kids" will usually play other sports.
Feakos hahaha exactly they better go play golf
not unlike the NBA and NFL in the USA, tbh. (though the NFL still is more of a mixed bag of rich and poor because of the culture surrounding american football is in the school system).
Excuses. I guess Serena is super poor and thankful to win grand slams lol
Which sports will Rich kids play? I see many Rich kids that want to be the next Ronaldo! It's just talent that's an excuse I guess every Rich kid will want to be the fastest Man on Earth like bolt.

Before Zidane there was Kopa who was from polish origin and Platini from italian origin. Sport, and Football in particular, has always been a way of social climbing.
michel brillaud yes but they were white so this is not interesting from an american perspective
Max MG but to me it is
Life in general not just sport ... we all come from migrants
Now the entire team is African. Great comparison.
Max MG In France minorities are more defined by 'Origins' then 'race'. In France, a person of Portuguese or Armenian descent for instance would be considered a minority just as a Senegalese or Algerian would, they're all products of immigration and in a lot of cases working class.
Le Pen said the immigrant and sons of immigrant players harbor no real national pride, yet Kylian Mbappe, born to Cameroonian and Algerian parents, felt such a sense of national pride and duty that he refused to accept his World Cup salary and donated it to charity. 🤔
He doesn't say all of them, only the ones that don't sing the national anthem which is true, and world cup salary are are absolute peanuts in comparison to PSG salaries, the salaries they get are between 10 and 30K€ per match his salary at the PSG is 1.5 millions per months, so effectively 273k€ per match without the bonus.
He’s not wrong look at all the players who live in France but play for other countries... take advantage of a countries benefits and they don’t even support them in the World Cup smh.
Love Europe, Hate EU often when players play for the country of their parents it's because they are scared of harsh competition and don't want to end in the reserve team.
Some player may be ungrateful but it's not a reason to generalise.
Made me think of the Benzema case in which he is accused of being anti French but was revealed to be paying his taxe in France despite playing for Madrid in Spain where Taxes are more likely lower meanwhile some "respectable" French singers and actors weren't even denying that they live abroad to pay less taxes.
That's because they don't make the French National team. These players would jump at a chance to play for France but there's limited spots on the rosters so the go to other countries they're eligible to play for.
Love Europe, Hate EU
Most players who play for other nations its cuz they are not good enough to play for the French national team. Its not the case of everyone but thats the most normal scenario, but like i said there are exceptions, like Mahrez who decided to play for Algeria because he made that promise to his parents.

Mwahahaha, last time Brazil won vs France in the world cup was 60 years ago with Pelé. Since that, France has eliminated Brazil each time both teams met in the world cup. 1986 : France wins in the quater final (penalties 4-3). 1998 : France wins the final 3-0 (i know, it's still painfull). 2006 : France wins in the quater final 1-0 (a lovely pass of Zidane for Henry). And this year you lost vs a french speaking team! Please keep entertaining me Penido!!!! 😊😊😊
Thuram, Henry, Lama don't have immigrant parents they come from Guadeloupe, Martinique and Guyane which are regular parts of France since a long time, their official status is in no way different than any other place of mainland France, the distinction is only geographical. In History they join France even sooner than some other parts of France like Savoy or Nice. So we can even say that Thuram, Henry and Lama are more French than some other white French.

Well, the French World Cup victory proves it...
France produced the most world cup soccer players, and won the victory of they're effort!
Indeed. But they are *football* players
DongChan Kim yeah you're right. France does not only produce talents for France, but also for many African countries like Cote d'Ivoire, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Senegal etc. Those African countries I mention have so many French-born players in their squad.
That's why I always laugh when ignorant people speaks as if France buys talent from Africa, because it's actually the other way around. Many African countries like Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Senegal, Cote d'Ivoire try so hard to convince French-born players to play for their grandparents' country. Look at the roster of Tunisia, Algeria, Cote d'Ivoire, Morocco, Senegal etc, you will see that the majority of their players were born, raised, educated and trained in France. The main language of Algerian football team dressing room is French, not Arabic because the majority of Algerian players were born, raised, educated and trained in France so they naturally speak more French than Arabic.

Non french people trying to teach us who is french or not, very crazy. Overseas territories are a part of France with the same language, same laws, same rights, same passport. They are french like every other french living on the Europe part, they are under the EU law system as well, they use Euro currency. there is actually no difference between us, we are a united France. Just, our country is spread out around the globe. These are not colonies, but french parts and proud. People born in metropolitan France move and settle in overseas territories just as people from overseas territories move and settle down in metropolitan. These are not immigrant but french people moving in their country.

The way you display information, man, is wonderful.
Brazil also needs a national system alike if they want to reclaim their hegemony on football. Nowadays brazilian best talents go to Europe when still teenagers and national teams get orphan of their best players, which reflects very badly on Brazil national team.
What rules football nowadays is money and it is very difficult for Brazil to compete in this regard with the Europeans. I'm Brazilian and I remember that in the past our talents, before going to Europe, were already successful playing for local teams, but now they go before they even become known in Brazil. Money is one of and perhaps the main reason why Europe has won the last 5 world cup titles.
You're right, but for some reason good players become famous only when they play in Europe, no matter how good they are in their own country. I think it's not only about money, the world in general pays more attention to Europe.
For example, about 60% of Brazilian population (which is the entire France population twice) strongly support their local football teams, and they are well disputed with top players, and even so it's not interesting for many countries.

From 1998 to 2018, 11 tournaments (World cups and Euros). France : 3 wins, 2 finals, 3 quarter-finals. Not bad.
Probably also that there is poverty amongst these communities. They have less life opportunities but a a way out is football.
BeAFreePerson Not true.
It’s more because :
1) A lot of kids in the french « banlieues » tend to play soccer all day long during their whole childhood,
and a lot of practice as such a young age made them good at soccer (obviously)
2) (Western and central) african genetics. Native people from those regions tend to be faster on a short distance and have more muscle power, which help a lot at certain soccer positions
Sony Ber speed isn't everything in football.
And the reason those kids spend all their time playing football is they don't have much else going on. Middle class kids would have other activities they go to. Football is cheep.
BeAFreePerson Speed isn’t everything in football,
but when 1 out of 500 kids playing football makes it to the pros,
Speed makes you stand out in a pool of players who have about the same skillset at yours.
Also, your second argument is not true at all:
kids in the french banlieues have really other things to do, this is France, not Bolivia.
All these kids have playstations, etc. I lived all my life in France so I know.
And don’t buy into the storytelling that the banlieues are the only « poor » areas in France while french whites are all rich or middle class.
There’s way more poor whites than poor blacks in France
Sony Ber ye possibly because whites are the majority. But if you take percentage than for sure there are more poor blacks than whites. And race does not mean much in football, Never has there been a black player considered the best in the world. Actually most of them are at least 1/4th white. Still do not think race plays within being good at football.
nikola 1809 Pele? Ronaldinhio?
As a white french-american allow me to explain how dual citizenship works since this seems to be confusing racists. If a player is born and raised in France to African parents, he is French simple as that. He is African too, by heritage, but it doesn’t subtract anything from his French-ness. It’s not either-or it’s both. Here’s where the nationalism and racism kicks in: I live in America and my first language is English but my Dad and his family are french so I have french citizenship. When I am in France I immediately subconsciously switch over to speaking fluent french, kissing people on the cheeks, dressing more stylish, and I even become slightly more abrupt and sophisticated in personality. Nobody would question how assimilated I was or call me American and that’s because I’m white. But when a French-African does it suddenly they’re not french they’re just African.
tacokenny oh please. Stop talking nonsense. These so-called French have nothing French in them. They are the product of racial segregation and are born in mostly monocultural banlieues apart from the mainstream society.
They are not really French. They were born in France, but culturally and socially they are not French. I am French-Colombian and there is more diversity in the Colombian football team, where you see more proportion of whites, mestizos and blacks from all regions (representing all Colombia), than in France, where you only see the children of migrants from Paris.
Germain Martel,
Lloris is from Nice, Pavard if from Maubeuge, Varane is from Lille, Umtiti is from Lyon, Lucas Hernandez is from Marseilles, Matuidi is from Toulouse, Griezmann is from Macon, and Giroud is from Chambery.
Only Pogba, Mbappé and Kanté are Parisians.
I don't know why you say you "only see the children of migrants from Paris."
I guess I do, actually. You don't know what you're talking about.
Edwin Luciano the problem is that most of the population are not children of African migrants. That is the problem.
Look at Argentina, look at Brazil, look at Uruguay, look at Colombia, Spain, Portugal, Germany and Mexico. They represent their respective country's demographics very well. Now look at France... They represent one tiny sector of society: the African banlieu. They certainly don't represent French culture. There is as much in them, as there is American in a Lasagna.
Germain Martel, if you look at the Ecuadorian national team you will see that most of the players are from the parts of Ecuador where the majority of people are of African descent. Most Ecuadorians are not of African descent. The reason the team has so many Afro-Ecuadorians is because the point of having a national team is to compete and win; not to reflect the demographic reality of a country.
There is such a thing as Afro-Ecuadorian culture. It's a subculture of Ecuadorian culture in general just like the culture of the banlieux is a subculture of French culture.
And Lasagna, although Italian in origin, has an important ingredient that came from the Americas: the tomato. Like France, it's something that is European in origin but that has ingredients that came from around the world to make it better.
@Geramain martel....i doubt if you really are a ''colombian''....never heard a colombian subliminally complain about the French team that much. And also argentina do not resprenst there demographics.....many of them are european immigrants...where are the native indgenous players of agerntina ? same can be said about Uruguay, Australia all european migrant team...where is your ''selective outrage for that mon frere ?
Thank you for this video much love from France :)

as French and banlieue man your vidéo is the most accurate vidéo about the french football ive never seen. nice work dude
"To make these players come from abroad and baptize them as the French team" nah nah nah Jean-Marie. I realize that even back then he used to tell half truth 😂
Quick precision : Alphonse Aerola was born in Paris from philippino parents so it goes even farther than Africa
Gosh reading those comments made me sad...
Why can’t you understand that they are french?? They need to be to play in the national team anyway.
Almost all of them were born and raised in France.
I’ll never understand Americans ; why can’t you understand the concept of migration when it’s how your country was born??
France is a beautiful country with multiple ethnicities and I am glad and proud to be french and those players make me even prouder.
Also, football not soccer thanks 😁
Their blood is majority African. It doesnt matter where you're born.
That argument is nonsense because it's only ever applied to players that are black. If France had fielded 11 white players there'd be absolutely no discussion, even if they were immigrants, or the sons of immigrants (Griezmann anyone?). My own country Australia is largely the same but it's never discussed because the players all have a fair complexion. This is racism, because you're all feigning to care about the ethnicity of these players but the only thing you care about is whether or not they are WHITE.
It's usually not Americans who make that argument. Come on, you know how much an issue this is in Europe. People in Europe say that all the time as well as a lot of French people..
Eastern Europe*. You people have never known a black person in your lives, and yet you seem to be the most vocal about them, always on about propaganda and what not but how did you come to know what you know about black people? If refugee's are an issue in France, which I'm not denying, what exactly does that have to do with the French Football team? Do you know what channels their parents used to enter the country? If the issue is crime perpetrated by immigrants, what does that have to do with these football players?
If the french dont want other nationalities in their country then maybe they should stay out of other nationalitirs political and socio economic affairs esp in west africa.
Simply because enough time passed for kids who watched France winning the World Cup in 98 to become young adults and reach their best potential age for football.
After France won in 98 so much money was spent for infrastructures for football, football grounds, clubs for childrens and teenagers, plus so many kids took a football license in the following years. Now is the time these kids reached their potential and some became some of the best players in the world.
It's not soccer, it's FOOTBALL

It wouldn't be an understatement if I say that French team will dominate the football world for atleast next decade. Just like Brazil did in the era of Pele.
Facts 💯
France is nothing without importing any African players 😂😂 Where are the French people despite representing 80% of the French population?
I think the real reason French players play for other countries' national team is because they know they don't have much of a shot at the actual national French team. BELIEVE ME, if any of those guys playing in African national teams had been called up to play for France, they would not doubt it for a second!
3:12 this is very sad because you're giving false information
Some are not immigrants nor children of immigrants, but french from french islands.
like Varane! He is half-Martiniquais half-metropolitan france, so 100% French!!
P V Varane is half martiniquen;they're a separate ethnicity fr ethnic french.
Martinique is France! There's no such thing as Ethnic french. I'm from the North of France and all my ancestors that I know of were born in the Northern part of France... however my family name is Flemish, and I have probably a good share of Flemish DNA! So am I ethnically French? What about the french Basque, the Alsacians, the Corsican, the french Catalan, the Britons...? Martinique is part of France since longer than Nice, or Alsace...
If you consider that being Ethnic French is being descendant of the Franks then you can't separate french from German/Belgium/Dutch... we're all descendants of the Franks! And you miss out on many french.
People from Martinique are as french as any other french, and as for "ethnic french", it's impossible to definite it, the history of France is what it is, frenchness isn't in the DNA, never was, never will!
P V "There's no such thing as Ethnic french... I have probably a good share of Flemish DNA... So am I ethnically French?"...
You accept "Flemish ethnicity" but not "French ethnicity"... If YOU don't have "French ethnicity", it doesn't mean there's no such thing as "French ethnicity".
Fundamental French ethnicity's traits are inherited since Gaulois and longtime before them. Various historical and scientific sources corroborate that.
I'd define Thierry Henry's ethnicity as 100% French, tho not completely "Gaulish".
@Clément Flemish are much more genetically closer to each others, they come from a small part of Europe and form a genetically distinct group. There's no such thing for french! French is a mixture of plenty of ethnicities... As for the Gaulish origins is too far ago. Modern french aren't much Gaulish, the Franks were a germanic tribe! Maybe the Britons (in Bretagne!) are the closer genetically from the Gaulish!
Actually among the French squad only Umtiti was not born in France.
While 4 Croatian players were not born in Croatia: Rakitic (Switzerland), Kovacic (Austria), Corluka (Bosnia), Lovren (Bosnia).
yet it's the French team that doesn't represent its country, even though the vast majority of our players were born and raised in France and that's all that matters
Yes but because they are not black the racists like those in the comments won't make an issue about it
Umtiti 🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲

That's a very enlightening video. Nonetheless I strongly disagree by the description of "Banlieues" (even though you could have called them Suburbs just the same) as Ghettos. I'm French and more importantly Parisian, and those parts of the country arent anywhere near to be described as Ghettos. Yes they're quite poor ( in Northern Paris, not in the south where it's quite rich) but it's not like riots happen every day or it's a "no-go zone". Be careful with how you describe these places because it tends to marginalize its inhabitants who are just like every other french people.
Alexandre Baroin well said !
Hey Baroin viens faire un tour à GRiGNY tu va voir si c'est riche
"Be careful not to offend them or they might start stabbing, rioting and looting again" - French logic.
Sasha, true that
Describing "banlieues" as "ghettos" may be a little too much (and then again, maybe not), but calling them "suburbs" would be even more inappropriate and confusing to the American audience (who constitute the majority of Vox's audience): in the US, the term "suburbs" mainly apply to affluent, upper middle-class, or at least middle-class neighbourhoods, not to low-income housing projects like the "banlieues".
The "banlieues" are, socioeconomically, more like the American "inner city neighbourhoods", but while these (as their name implies) are located in the central area of a metropolitan area surrounded by more affluent suburbs, in Paris (and other European cities) the impoverished areas are in the suburbs, surrounding the affluent historical centre.
I'm french and I'm not sure you understand how french overseas territories work, a lot of the players you showed as "immigrants" or "children of immigrants" are not, I understand that you love to differenciate what you call "poc" from whites for political reasons and can't see past their skin color but american labels won't work here. It's like calling someong from puerto rico or hawai an immigrant to the USA when he comes to NY, french carribean islands are as much france as mainland and their black population exist since centuries, be careful with the false informations, also immigration was not only to rebuild france but also a political strategy to pressure working rights with competitive low wages workers, sabotage unions and establish an electorate, I understand that you have to simplify but it needs to be clarified.
AV good post. Thanks!
Ironically in america the native Americans aren’t the representation of what an “American” must be
According to US own stereotypes average “real” American must be of european descent specially the British isles
The rest will have labels and won’t be considered as a “true” patriotic American even if they are citizens they will be segregated by their heritage unless they’re of European descent
This is the thing: When algerian or african players play well you call them french. But when they are left alone without any media in the banlieues you call them sales and immigrants.
Racism is huge in France. Almost as big as in the US.
Algeria for example was mainland of france. But ask any algerian today, they all hate the french government and country due to the bloody history (1962 and 100 years before!)
'ask any algerian today, they all hate the country due to the bloody history' that's just BS, some do and others don't. Stop making assumptions sound like a universal truth.
Rosène Haddad whatever. most hate france. and some harkis do not. and maybe also some othee immigrants. sorry. but you got my point
ITS NOT FRANCE ITS THEIR COLONIES
im was born to france im french like mbappe dembele and all squad haha lol only mandanda was not born to france lol
[in french] super vidéo, tres bien réalisé et expliqué. Continue comme ça^^
correction: Mbappé was born from french parents of cameroonian and algerian origin
Well from a legal perspective this is correct. In terms of ethnicity it is not. It's like claiming that a bantu is a cherokee, when living with cherokees... he is not, but that's not at all a bad thing - it's just a fact.
Ethnic vision is stupid, we humans have a brain, not only skin colors
Yeah, but the nation of france (5th republic, since 1958) is fairly young. Your argument excludes almost 1000 years of french history, hence it must not be called "the beginning"

Italy: *Failing to qualify for 2 world cups*
France: I understand your pain.
Thierry Henry is from Guadeloupe and Martinique so technically he’s not an immigrant
As well as Thuram
Is Guadeloupe and Martinique connected to Mainland “France”? No didn’t think so. So the migrated to France.
When India was under the rule of the British empire, would you say that Indian people who moved to Britain, not immigrants?
When prior to 1901 English people moved to Australia, would you not say they immigrated?
Your comment is the equivalent of saying someone from Hawaii immigrated to the US because they moved to California.
India and Australia were colonies (like Senegal or Cameroon were for France). Guadeloupe and Martinique are part of France. People there vote in French elections and everything.
(Minor side note: Algeria used to be like Martinique-- considered an overseas part of France-- but then it broke away and declared independence.)
Owen Rodgers So, is someone from Alaska moving to Florida immigrating to the US because it's not connected to the mainland?
Is an englishman from Gibraltar moving to Essex immigrating to the UK?
That doesn't sound right.
Cactus Jack Guy but Alaska is a state... Gibraltar is not a state or county of the United Kingdom or Great Britain. It is a territory.
Puerto Rico and Guam are territories... peurto ricans moving to America would be immigrating...

Why this video is recommended after france knockout by Switzerland in Euro 2020
This video is quite informative and almost on point. If I may, I'd like to add some critical information:
- The "academy" system doesn't concern only the best, elite clubs...Almost every town in France, and therefore in Paris' banlieues (there are 400 of them in the banlieue of Paris alone), has a soccer club, with an academy system.
- In France, school sport is relatively informal, it is designed to offer the most varied exposure to sports, team sports as individual sports, to the children, and to reinforce their basic fitness. Competition sport is done, out of school, in the "club academy" system, on an entirely voluntary basis; kids, or most of the time their parents, choose their sport. Competitions are very structured, even at the youngest and/or lowest level, whatever the sport. Competition is everywhere. When a player, even at a young age, shows prowess, "bigger" clubs will spot him and give him a chance to move to a higher level
- In the banlieues, where land is cheaper than in Paris proper, and out of the club system, many municipalities have set relatively well-maintained surfaces accessible for free to youngsters, on which countless informal games occur. One cannot stress enough the importance of informal play in the development of sports; Sport, especially soccer, is considered by many banlieue municipalities as an alternative to having an unruly youth, mostly African-originated, but not only, roaming around and destroying things in wanton accesses of violence
2 sports are mandatory at school: football and handball. Check the results and you'll see how the practice of sports on a weekly bases is so important.
@@nicolasviard2252 What? The only team sport we NEVER played at school was Football (I mean, out of the "five big ones", Football, Rugby, Volley-ball, Handball, Basketball)...Of course, we would play it plenty informally at recess...That was quite some time ago, true, but where do you get this information from?
Hugo Lloris was born in France, in Nice, has french parents and great parents. He still did amazing job as goal keeper. Lucas Hernandez was born and raise in Spain, did amazing job in left defensive. Benjamin Pavard, born in France in the North of the country scored one of the best goal of the World Cup. Adil Rami, never played a single match because he isnt that good. Stev Mandanda, Alphonse Areola never played during the competition either.
Talent has nothing to do with your origin. The answer to your question would be 'France has better formation center'
Mandada did play the match against Denmark in the group states (France and Denmark had already qualified).

dont they mean that those players originally have their roots in Africa, if you go wayyyy back?
Don Houston they're from another French territory and the culture is the same the roots don't matter because then you'd only see which country held which part of Africa
Exactly, also Martial, Coman, Varane and some others.
But everyone act like they came from another country
Don Houston it's like saying white american have their roots in Europe so technically they are not true american.
indeed but something like 300 years ago, the fact is that their families had french citizenship, before most american families got us citizenship.
