If you believe that Olise chose France over England because there is less racism aimed at black players in the French national team than England, I would suggest you read about the vile racist abuse directed at black French players after the defeat to Argentina at the last World Cup. That was the same year that the far right polled 41% in the French Presidential elections. Our equivalent can’t poll much higher than 25%. |  |

Wasn't the same scale as the abuse suffered by England players. I had to hunt to find any report of the French instances you cite. Wouldn't be surprised if Londoners like Semenyo & Olise would only be aware of the Euro 2020 final racism. |  | |  |

They're hardly going to come out and say it's because elements of the English support are racist. [Post edited 1 Jul 23:55]

Indeed. My son is born and bred in Scotland with a Scottish mother. But if he was good enough he would choose England. |  |

Once again twisting things to suit your agenda. Pointless engaging with you. |  | |  |

Amazing that all the racist people in the world are from England. Thank goodness there are no racists in France, Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Scotland and Ireland. |  | |  |

You might be right that Semenyo and Olise chose Ghana and France for unrelated reasons. I might be right that they were deterred by vile racist abuse handed out to England players who were more successful in a major tournament than any since 1966, at the time when they'd have been choosing which country to represent. It's an unwinnable argument either way. But it's undeniable that elements of English support have, for certain groups, made representing their country of birth and upbringing a less attractive prospect than it should be.

Sadly, some people won't change their stance on anything, no matter if you can prove otherwise, on both sides of the argument to be fair, What gets me is people like the OP can't understand that they are just as bad, because they have to start the argument in the first instance and then wonder why it all kicks off, it's almost like they need to justify their own opinion [Post edited 2 Jul 6:50]

The 2020 thing was mostly a tiny minority of idiots on which nobody would have noticed until media and others amplified it for the sake of condemning. I remember going through my social media feeds at the time, the noise was 99.5% people reposting, replying or commenting in outrage. Ragebait works, sadly. Makes it look like there's a massive problem when it's just the usual proportion of morons you will find in any nation or society. |  |
