Well, for several months, I have been living in France, and as a Swiss immigrant, I must admit: it's complicated.
Frankly, I realize that my immigrant journey is even more difficult than the others, because I have to get used to living in a country that functions less well than the one I left.
Just last night I was talking about it with a friend, who had arrived by boat from Sudan, and I said to him: “You can't understand what I'm going through. For you, things have improved…” But I am doing integration work. I realized that the Swiss and the French had a common passion: criticizing France!
Ah, but now, as soon as I speak with a French person and we have nothing more to say to each other, I just say, “Apart from that, this country is rubbish, right?” » and I'm quiet for 15 minutes… unless it's Tanguy, then it takes double…
And the last thing that I like to bring out as a topic of counter conversation is the arrival of the football players for their French team rally… That and medieval literature, but there, we were on the football!
No, but because, for some time now, the arrival of players has become a parade. Now, the fashion capital is no longer Paris, but Clairefontaine-en-Yvelines. You have surely seen these images passing by, unlike central defender Konaté who saw nothing, because at the beginning of October, he arrived with a green balaclava which covered his entire face…
I didn't understand anything and I found it a little ugly: so everything was there to make it fashionable and trendy.
Ah, but I don't understand anything about style, you can confirm it by watching my video review, just to check my clothes, not at all to increase my scores…
Well, despite my lack of style, I must say that I love this new ritual among the Blues, and as a Swiss supporter, it doesn't bother me that you beat us in the fashion field, because we have you beaten on the field of Bucharest, in the round of 16 of the Euro… I know, it's small to bring back a victory from a long time ago, deep down, I'm not that attached to this match, it's Was there what… 3 years, 4 months, 22 days and 15 hours…
Ah, but June 28 is now a public holiday in Switzerland, it's one of the only ones in fact, since we weren't part of the Allies and we like our banks to be open. Ah well, we're not closing what got us through the war.
In short, to return to the Blues parade, they are often criticized in the media for that, and frankly, I am on the side of the players…
Ah, but I dream of having their trust and also… their salary, to show up at work like that!
Once, I made a little money thanks to radio columns, no need to specify that it was in Switzerland… and I did something crazy, I bought myself a fluorescent orange Patagonia fleece. .. I was told that I looked like a cone, I never wore it again… But if I won millions, I would have totally bought a real cone costume, nothing to worry about!
When you have unlimited money, obviously you end up buying skirts and heels… Ah well if Koundé, they dress like that, it's not because he's stylish, he just had already bought the entire men's department at Zara!
But unfortunately, this is not everyone's opinion. This high-profile arrival of players poses a problem for commentators, such as former footballer Jérôme Rothen, who said: “It's incredible to accept that when you're Didier Deschamps! » But what do you want him to do, DD? That he washes their underwear and gives them a little kiss on the forehead so they fall asleep?
Sometimes players don't even listen to Deschamps when he asks them to make a pass, did you think they would listen to him for their style?
The rest to listen to and discover on video…
