loz Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Funnily enough I was about to post proof that Benitez is an idiot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mod Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Fantastic post G4, and really couldn't believe it either :D Pure comedy! He's actually even trying to find what to say, and making the noises of a foreign manager trying to speak english, though Mclaren is speaking English! Quality!

Englishman Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 :D What a tit. He sounds like he's trying to do a Martin Jol impression. Surely he can't be serious?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWestwayWonder Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) Its like he is imitating Christopher Walken playing Wenger if he were imitating a Rhodesian land owner.

Maksimov Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I think he's trying too hard to speak simple English to make sure the journalist understands him. Makes him sound a bit daft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valerie Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 seems to have both gained a comedy "dutch accent" and also is losing the ability to speak english.is he taking the piss or plainly completely mad? your problem now val, your problem. Lovely Very sweet of him to use simple English.

moi Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) I think he's trying too hard to speak simple English to make sure the journalist understands him. Makes him sound a bit daft. He is doing what a lot of the English who live here do - they don't speak French, but they think if they speak English with a Frenchified accent, raise their voice at the end of a sentence (like the Australians do) and say "Yes?" every now and then, that French people will understand them. They do it with the best of intentions, but it does make them sound like plonkers. Edited August 14, 2008 by moi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do it with the best of intentions, but it does make them sound like plonkers. i was in france on holiday 2 years ago and half way through had remembered enough frnch to ask for things, ask directions and hold the minimum of conversations. we went to a cafe for lunch and i ordered. everything was going well, i ordered everything perfectly and got a compliment from the waitress. then i screwed it right up by saying "gracias" as she left. all my mates and the waitress were pissing themselves laughing. gits.

moi Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 So you're multilingual? A polyglot! Your mates probably envied you. The waitress probably fancied you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassiya Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 He's really going to endear himself with the fans..................not, if he continues to dismiss his teams chances like that. He lost the match before it was played! Fair do's FC Twente are not a great European name but to qualify for the Champions League is not mean feat. I'll watch with interest how he will cock it up in Holland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
