Well, since it's getting deleted in the Euro U21 thread:

 

If those are the best players, yes. I'd want to have the best players of a country in my team, no matter if they're all black, all white or anything in-between. Much like in a company I'd want for example the board of directors to be entirely filled with the best people for the positions, no matter if they're all male, all female or any random mix.

I mean it’s cool and all to say that, but if anything, Europe has proven in the last 3 years that they do not want that.

In which situations, to be more exact? Because I partially agree, with all kinds of 'quota' being introduced (or at least discussions about it being rather serious) to artificially change the representation of this or that group instead of focussing on the actual qualities per individual.

Well I just like the attitude of Europe is people who aren’t us suck, until they help us win a World Cup, then those few are cool.

Right, I wouldn't know anything about that :p

Important question... what you use for mosquitoes, guys ?

Mosquito repellent. I use a brand called “Off!”
