Well I know about Italians and Buffon is Italian.
The only ones that in Italy are not ALL Italian are
Ferrari
Liverani
And thats it.
But most of the other from France etc are true. And GN, its ok if they were AT LEAST born there, but most of them are not.

:)
Still there is nothing we can do about this.
