Nah man you taking it too far lol

You can be born wherever and you live wherever it don't matter the world is big. But to go as far as to represent a flag, a country that has very little to no ties to you but your immediate present and future I find that weak, especially when you have opportunity to represent a nation that is much closer to you culturally, linguistically and ethnically. Fuck sakes go ask the spaniards if Marcos Senna is spannish :lol:

However again that is said persons choice, and they go by what they will. Heck Diego Costa make it happen and so does 80% of the French squad so it's cool :lol:
There is one thing to be mercenaries who do it out of career choice ala Diego Costa, Senna and some of the Oriundi, these are adults who move to a country professionally to play a sport and then choose to play for that country after they are rejected by their nation more or less (Costa rejected Brasil at the end, but after years of being ignored). They have legal right to represent them so no real fuss, but its entirely another matter comparing that to 2nd generation immigrants. This is the upteenth time you question african players who are BORN AND RAISED in the countries they choose to represent (Pogba, Balotelli, this Keita kid, and others).

Its senseless dude, and if you think hard on it its not any better then the closeminded bigots who dont welcome them, because you dont respect their choice and will to represent the country they are born, raised, and is essentially is all they know despite their heritage and origins being elsewhere. Its hard to move on with attitude like the one you constantly show.

Soon though Eto'o 2.0


Also @Osman Eto'o and Drogba are two players I respect A LOT!! Because they made the conscious CHOICE of representing their native countries and nit their adoptive countries. Now they like gods there and are active members of their communities. How active is Malouda :andyandbarcelona:

Why are you critizing his choice? Why are you judging people you dont know even for a second, except for their passports/origins? You dont respect him or likes of Pogba at all, because they choose to play for their nations, because they ARE born and bred french and spanish players. Do you respect their right to live there and vote on elections? Or is it simply about football? Might aswell close all borders everywhere and only have homogenous populations if you criticize citizens playing for the country thats all they know (have heard bigots say this same shit about Zlatan here in Sweden).


Its very nice and good to choose to represent the country of your parents and heritage (understandable, but not a big deal, nor something to respect someone for entirely, silly to say that), its a choice, which you dont seem to realize since you only accept one outcome. Small correction, its adopted country if they come there when their young or older immigrants, but not when they are born and raised there and never lived anywhere else to be adopted to another. And lastly if they are integrated enough to be able to choose to represent said country, then it should be encouraged not chastised. You have a problem if you cant realize that basic point bro.



P.S How you use to word respect loses is meaning when you said just recently you have big respect for epic retard like Kanye West :p

Fuck their native countries bro. If Pogba feels French then he should represent France on a national level. Pogba was born in France, why not represent France?

He will defenitely wear our shirt in his near future, I just doubt its next season.
I wonder how we will go about it. His co-ownership (and co-ownerships in general) ends at the end of this season. I hope we at least buy him fully, and loan him back to Sassuolo, or maybe another Italian club higher up the table. I want to see him in our colours one day though.

You're right. We need to acquire full ownership of Berardi because he'll only improve. He's doing another fantastic job this season. It's cliche to point out, but once again a player has been written off because of a brief form lull. Keep in mind he's 20 and then consider what he's been able to do in his career thus far. He lacks the flare and fancy of a Dybala but he's clearly got a mature football brain to add to his work ethic, strength, speed (kinda) and good technique.

Great goal Zaza. I can certainly see roles for them at Juve whether it be to start or not but Berardi has a lot more growth in him and should play for a Fiorentina or Torino.

Good point. You don't develop talents by having them jump from a tiny side to a Top Team bench. You choke them, that's all. Aguero had his Atletico, Ibra his Ajax, Lewandowski his Dortmund, you name it.
Re-loan him to an EL team and see what he's made of. Dybala basically stole his "occassional sub in" spot which leaves Berardi the "rarely sub in spot". Not good for a talent.

Just bring him back... If we are willing to buy dybala why not bring him back
Because we don't need both of them? Because Dybala will cost a lot of money? Because there's no point in Berardi wasting away on our bench behind Tevez, Morata and Dybala when he could be playing every week at another team and continuing his development?

Loan him out again imo, just don't sell him.
