All hail new France manager Laurent Blanc for suspending the 23 players who so shamefully disgraced their country at 2010 South Africa. Blanc has refused to pick any of the pampered millionaires who put ego before country when they threw many toys out of the pram at the World Cup. Their behaviour was shameful, and thank goodness that a man of principle and probity has had the guts to say…I don’t need or want you spoilt, vastly over-paid children anymore. Go for it Lauren – bring through the kids and other good French players who care more about playing the game the best they can. The hubris of French players at the World Cup was utterly astonishing. Despicable. An arrogant slap in the face for football fans everywhere.
