Any non-frenchman who is willing to play for the french national team is sick in the head. I don't understand why even the french would play for France.

If you mean that this player is, say from, Denmark and has lived in France for like a month and wants to play for the French National team, then yes it's wrong. If you mean that the Danish player has established some sort of citizenship in France and has lived in France for a while, then, no. If it is wrong, then Camoranesi should not be representing Italy, and Deco should not be representing Portugal.

No, as long as they join the French nationality. Many french players were actually born in part of Africa that used to be French colonies. Same apply to all other countries. Japanese had a Brazilian player who joined the japanese citizen and played for Japanese. And many european player have dual nationality. Klaus of German National Soccer team was half Polish, so he is eligible (and was invited) to join Polish national team.

Because sport is one way to make a lot of money for poor people. In France most of people issued from immigration are poor, as the blacks...So there is more blacks playing soccer in France than white and logically 60%/80% of the national french soccer team is made up of blacks....

It would be wrong if the player has played for another national team or if not a citizen. But most of the time it doesnt matter, for instance; leagues have mixture of races. But if they are there for a while they have to seek citizenship.

No, anyone who joins a team has obviously been prepared to represent that nation.

Morally, yes. But, look at it like the French foreign legion. Lots of non-frenchies there.
