Why wont Bobby learn english?

[xenon_]

As I clicked on this thread, I was shaking my head at the ridiculousness of the title of this thread.

Are you an idiot? Are you seriously unable to notice the difference between Mancini's English now, and his English (...double-checking that retarded OP...) when he first arrived in England?

If this is your honest assessment, then you're a complete idiot. If you're just exaggerating to make a point that he's trying hard enough to learn the language, then you're still. a complete. idiot.

This is f***'n ridiculous. Does joining this forum unlock all the idiot threads? I don't seem to remember ever seeing anything this stupid on here, before.

He won't learn English? Doesn't bother me because apparently I fucking speak Italian since I understand his interviews just fine. Must be his expressive goddamn eyes

 

[City Raider]

if we win the league and his post match interview isn't gramatically correct, the whole experience will be ruined for me

the rags might even start another countdown banner with the amount of matches since mancini spoke perfect english

but we must back him regardless and pray for the day when we can proudly display a dvd of a perfect interview in our trophy cabinet

I can understand him perfectly well thanks.

Eeeenglish? Iz not important. Winning, only this.

And iz a football.

Iz normal. But iz also very strange.

It takes seven years to fully learn a language. It takes two to get to a functional level. He's at functional in my book.

Being able to speak good English isn't important. What's important is being able to communicate in English, primarily, but ideally also in the languages of his various squad members. He seems to be doing that alright judging by his interviews and team performances.

Pathetic thread.

2012 has an early contender for shit thread of the year.

The OP has asked a fair question. I'd love for Roberto to be able to be a little more articulate when being asked questions - if nothing else to get a better insight into his thoughts on his team, players, opposition etc.

Yeah, we were much more of a club when we could listen to Peter Reid's dulcet tones coming over the airwaves. We knew where we were then.

An interesting article in the Telegraph this week pointed out that English is rarely heard in the MANUre dressing room. It stated that Frenchman Evra spoke in Spanish or Portuguese.
