Basically he's showing support for a ruling that will cut the percentage of youngsters with dual nationality (primarily Africans) accepted into academies to 30%. He set up a press conference saying that the reason is due to France's overemphasis on physical size.

I can kind of see where france are coming from in saying there training up players intended to come through for the national side and there going off and playing for different nations.


Only problem is with the quota there is no guarentee they will ever play national football so to stop somebody under that pretence i cant really agree with me

The only reason the dual nationalities play for their home countries is because they arent good enough for the France team. Blanc has probably been annoyed that the french team have been getting beat by teams with players they have trained :rofl:
