JustMike Posted 22 January, 2013 Share Posted 22 January, 2013 so, the media did make out he cant speak english...? many of the papers did...since as we now believe what we read and all that As did the soccer Saturday guys and the Sunday supplement peeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 22 January, 2013 Share Posted 22 January, 2013 From the BBC report on the game... " On the sidelines communication seemed a major issue, as Pochettino does not speak good English. Strength and conditioning coach Nick Harvey appeared to be helping to pass on instructions to the players. Towards the end of the game it appeared to become a signficant problem." WHat's your point? No one said he spoke good English, they said that the media were "making a mountain out of a molehill" and unrealiable, lying journalists with a reputation for trying to destablise us suggested he didn't speak English, when he does speak some. Yet everyone seems to now believe these people. Wierd, internet people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 22 January, 2013 Share Posted 22 January, 2013 so, the media did make out he cant speak english...? many of the papers did...since as we now believe what we read and all that Precisely Jamie. Who "made out" that he cant speak English that was worth listening too? OR do we now believe everything that's in the media? It's very confusing who and when we are supposed to trust papers and when not too. Can someone clear this up for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 22 January, 2013 Share Posted 22 January, 2013 (edited) As did the soccer Saturday guys and the Sunday supplement peeps Do you mean Paul Merson who is on record as wanting us relegated or that c*nt MLT who needs to keep his gob shut about our club?

Pedro Posted 22 January, 2013 Share Posted 22 January, 2013 I think he used Nick Harvey more to identify/name players. He also wanted NH to ask Guly how bad the injury was and about subbing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Charlie Posted 22 January, 2013 Share Posted 22 January, 2013 For those that saw him on Sky tonight he does speak some English, not enough for pressers but enough to get his point over. He also said his assistant Jesus speaks good English. He will also learn English. Its very easy for the media to hang onto this just like they encouraged mass protests the other night that didnt happen. If he comes highly recommended from Jose Mourinho then he is ok by me and his comments in interviews show an intelligence IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mulletsaint Posted 23 January, 2013 Share Posted 23 January, 2013 If a "mountain out of molehill" is one line in an article then yes they did do that. Although it seems you've all be fooled into believing bullsh*t stories in papers where it is known they have an anti Saints agenda and not trusting his mate in Sky Spain who confirmed he can speak it. Shame on you all. Get out of the wrong side of the bed this morning? When the news first broke about our new manager, it was reported in several newspapers, on Sky Sports News and the BBC that he couldn't speak English. I'm currently lacking in work so I do not lack time to take in all of this crap. Obviously the English media did their usual stirring and many of us, not knowing the bloke, went along with it. I think most of us realise you can't always trust the media but on the other hand sometimes we just take their word for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 23 January, 2013 Share Posted 23 January, 2013 I'm not quite sure why everyone is having go at me. We had a trusted source which was a friend close to MP say he could speak English, yet people chose to ignore this. Instead they believed the papers and media, freely linking and quoting them, i thought these were full of lies and have an anti Saints agenda? They believed an ex manager of ours who people said is a football dinousaur, who slagged him off for not being English and admitted he had never heard of him and to cap it all a TV panel which contained an ex player that we've been told is only interested in sh*t stirring and keeping himself in the public eye, his mate from the telly and an ex Skate who has said he wants us relegated.

Lord Duckhunter Posted 23 January, 2013 Share Posted 23 January, 2013 Guillem Balague was on H&J Talksport Friday afternoon and he said that MP spoke ok English, yet Talksport and others still keep saying he cant speak English.

mulletsaint Posted 23 January, 2013 Share Posted 23 January, 2013 I'm not quite sure why everyone is having go at me. Really? You seem to be labouring under the misapprehension that being correct protects you from coming across as an idiot. Get your head out of your arse for a minute and you might hear some of us a little better. Most of what came out initially was that he could not speak English. I cannot remember the 'source's opinion coming out until a little later. Anyway it is pretty obvious, especially if anyone has watched last night's Revista that he has a good understanding of the language and that he speaks enough to get his thoughts across to the players. Time to draw a blue line under it I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Chalet Posted 23 January, 2013 Share Posted 23 January, 2013 The press failed to highlight Kenny Dalgleish's ability to speak English for a number of years. Think it is fairly clear that MP has a basic grasp of the lingo and won't need a translator for long. Probably won't be as newsworthy for the media when he conducts his first presser in English.
