Nike has a new commerical out about the new French Kit. It was cool to see Kakuta in it. I believe that his him at the 00:33 mark. Obviously they see Kakuta as a future star for the country.

They should have made Gérard Despardieus do the voice-over...much more fitting :P Good clip though

Not him. Is my expert opinion after two stop frames. Looks like someone else.

(Not Malouda, Kakuta. It's not Kakuta at the 0.33 mark)

I think it is Virosh, though admittedly it is very hard to spot as it lasts for around a second.

I thought you were saying you thought it was Virosh in the video!

The rap voice sounds very like Gérard Depardieu's, though they say it's someone else so I suppose it must be. (because why would they lie?)

No way. It is Kakuta.

Yeah it's Kakuta

Pretty clear who it is

Yes. Clearly Kakuta.

More likely they got him for a bargain fee

Its kakuta no doubt... anyways that new kit looks horrible. disgusting really

Eh? It is predominantly blue and white. Now what does that remind me of? And you say it looks "disgusting"? Am I missing a subtle point of sartorial pitch elegance here? Enlighten me, do...

It still is ugly. Looks totally cheap. Anyone could have designed that..and than that tight fit

Do you mean "cheap" as in inexpensive, or "cheap" as in tarty? The tight fit works for me. Just wish the shorts were a bit shorter - and a bit tighter!

Seriously, what has happened to the world when blokes are posting about the "look" of the kit rather than the skills of the men inside it?

I normally dont really interest in other teams kit´s but I find that one horribly ugly, seems like thats a trend. All those tight fit kits are horrible btw... just doesnt look good at anyone in my opinion.

Tight jerseys and roomy shorts? They should have tight shorts too, since they have no balls. Lycra bicycle pants would work well I think, so they can all quietly but quickly pedal away from training.

With you all the way on this, TD, but not necessarily for the same reasons...

P.S. I can't believe it's taken me all this time to notice that it's a "Commerical"

Thanks, I suppose. I'm just happy there was nothing in my post that warranted correction.

I've just read the history of French war heroes. It took four seconds and was written on a slip of paper that would fit inside a fortune cookie.

Where is Anelka ??????????????

Since he no longer plays for the national team I guess they didn't want to have him in it.

Check out this page from nikesoccer. Looks like Kakuta is being used as a big player for their advertising.

Also, the new French Away kit came out. Thoughts on the white with blue stripes?
