Debate on Player's Personal Choices

I watched what she was saying live, and at one point, I thought it was a joke

and I said to myself, "No, it's not a joke, she's being clear."

She says what she thinks, I think it's from personal experience.

Because when someone says childbirth is disgusting, I find that scandalous.

That the dad is useless, I find that scandalous.

But she's on another planet, she's on another planet, I don't know…

Yes, but that's her opinion, Mad!

Hello? Yes?

It's her opinion.

Yes, it's her opinion, she's giving her opinion.

But what does she care if Jérôme Mudocu is going to take a 12-hour flight,

a 24-hour flight, a 48-hour flight, what does she care?

Jérôme Mudocu is the kind of Belgian player who insisted on being present for the birth of his child.

If he wants, it's his choice, he was selected for the Belgian team for the World Cup.

And then this event happens, and between the two, he chose the better option.

And he can be there to attend his wife's delivery

and then be there to celebrate that event.

But she went completely off the rails.

So I don't know if she projected that onto her own personal life or not.

But in my opinion, she should go see a therapist.

No, but it bothers me, that's another...

But while her comments shocked you, I think they shocked a lot of people,

there are many people who couldn't relate to her words.

But are you saying the L'Équipe channel made the right decision, or is it going too far?

Once again, her comments only reflect her own views.

Next season, she'll come back having toned things down a bit.

Okay.

Simple as that.

But then, indeed, that's a debate we'll find there, I'll admit,

but when I saw Brahim Absoob's reaction, he stepped up

like I've never seen him before.

Yes, but so it's a debate.

Both sides were ultimately presented, Mohamed?

Absolutely, but why does she apologize the next day?

If she's clear about her opinion, she doesn't have to apologize the next day.

Because her management is putting pressure on her, I think.

But then, Mohamed, when you hear a comment or an opinion that clashes with your own,

you demand sanctions for that person.

My own opinion? Oh no, no, I'm not the only one who thought that.

No, that's true.

Clearly, there are several million of us who thought that.

Yes, but of course, I know, but you expect sanctions

when someone expresses an opinion that shocks more than one person.

But it's regarding a specific subject, it's about a birth.

A kid, he's not going to reject this birth in 15 years.

Yes, but he didn't buy his child either.

But that's your opinion, Mohamed, but actually, France Pirron, in this case,

that means that actually, you think we shouldn't necessarily give our opinion when it's disturbing.

But yes, we can give it, but there are limits.

And there, I think she crossed a major line.

But she hasn't crossed any legal limit.

What she says isn't illegal at all, even if it may shock you.

Personally, what she says is not my opinion.

But I'm telling you, I don't see why she shouldn't be able to express it.
