If any of you don't think Joe Hart is world is class then you really haven't a clue about football.

...Except Africa hadn't been invented then. :P It probably went by the name of "ugg" or something similar.

Aren't Uggs from Australia not Africa? ;-)

The last England player with any right to be called that was David Beckham. And I have my doubts about that being so. Before him, probably Gazza "on his day". And if David Seaman wasn't a World Class keeper (he wasn't) then Joe Hart sure as hell was not either.

e : Actually, Ashley Cole was World Class for a short period. Two in 20 years then.

Pretty sure also that plenty of World Class players...genuine ones...never won it.

By the way I live in Spain, and my children would be russians despite having spanish passport. And it doesn't matter what they feel like. It is a matter of blood.

If it was about blood, just about every American (North or South America) would have to pick a European country to play for.

Or we'd all play for Ethiopia. :P

Well, you just proved that yes it is all about blood :)

Some of the french players have both parents africans (Pogba), and other only one (Mbape).

Another issue is that some people doesn't care about their family tree.

So Swiss National team having 7-8 in starting eleven makes them Albanians???

Aint no blood bro anymore. Each of those Albanians born or not there was fed by Switzerland, trained by them, taught by them, became human by them. They deserve to play for Switzerland and be a proud Helvetic as any other in there as much it hurts my heart they all made a right choice.

You cant judge them if they chosed Albania as you cannot judge them for playing for them. Motherland is the country that feeds you.

I understand your point, but they are still albanians. I have seen dogs growing up with cats and adopting some type of cat's behaviour. Does it make it cat? No, it is still a dog. :)

I do agree with you but look countries in Balkan they have this attitude. We dont accept them to play for us in under teams and when they get completed we expect them to thank the other nation for training our player and we expect the player to pick us.

I mean is kinda crap in that sense. They all accept they are Albanians but still they all went for a country they grew in. Maybe guys like you and me are more old school about bloodline but no one cares much nowdays.

Anyway enough of this politics :D

The Grand Prix of F1 has been in Sotshi and now the season is going forward to the next circuits. Now is good time to participate in other tournaments to Russia.. especially in this year's football tournaments. Fifa 18 is still time to join.

I buy a ticket to Sotshi and enjoy the tournaments. If you are there i can take a match from the game. My one friend is from St. Petersburg and he likes also driving games. He drives now in Yellow coloured car and his skills are better than last season.

Championship tournament is a tremendous view and then viewers have the best entertainment as in circus or performances.
