We can merge more threads here, all the ones where France is mentioned and we can make this a +1000 posts thread too.
That Azzurri thread has posts from the qualifications, friendlies and some 500 posts where members are moaning that Lippi didn't call Del Piero for the qualifications match against Cyprus or Georgia, merged into one thread.
These threads die after the world cup so it makes no difference if they're sticky or if they exist at all.
That's why I see no problem if we open all kinds of threads in this subforum, related to the WC. Some will die in a day or two, some after 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks and all of them after the WC ends.

For the smart asses who will undoubtedly repeat again how the French team isn't French (I'm starting to think they're saying this just because the players are black), I can say that 20 of these 23 were born and raised in France. 1 was born in a French overseas department and two were born in Africa, one of which, Evra, came to France when he was six.
