PASCAL Chimbonda is hoping Sunderland can spark a French revolution and help him and his international team-mates get back into Les Bleus side.
The Sunderland squad currently boasts three French players with international experience - Chimbonda, Steed Malbranque and Djibril Cisse.
But none of the trio have been regulars in the French side and Chimbonda is hoping a good season for Sunderland might change that.
He said: "I have not been in the French squad since the 2006 World Cup and maybe that will not change until the manager changes.
"I do not know.
"But maybe if I play well for Sunderland and Sunderland have a good season then it might be different.
"Certainly we are at a good club and in a good division to get noticed because the Premier League is one of the best leagues there is and as a defender you are constantly coming up against top players.
"So I think everyone at this club knows that if they play well for Sunderland it can really help them in other ways, like their international careers"
