Konate should definitely start ahead of that other guy giving out too many fouls.

I remember when we were linked with him :beli:

Football London reports that YEARS of background work had already gone into cultivating a relationship with Tchouameni, who at that time still played for Monaco.

However, according to the Telegraph, when it was put to senior figures at the club such as Marina Granovskaia to make a decision on the transfer - they decided a loan deal for Atletico Madrid's Saul Niguez was the better option.

Joke club.

Man, every major Sports events, we get those silly takes about French players not being French just because their parents are of non-French descent or not French themselves. There are a couple of cases where it's true like for example Mandanda or the Hernandez brothers who are binationals but most of the times it's about their parents.

I tell y'all that, if those players weren't black and weren't winners, we wouldn't be talking about it at all.

Look at past French teams, we've been having great players of non-French descent (that's just how it is here) but the difference is back then their lineage was Polish (Kopa), Italian (Platini), Portuguese (Pires) Spanish (Fernandez, Amoros) or Armenian (Djorkaeff) and so on so ultimately they were all white (looking at least) so nobody cared.

Smh
