Amazed to hear an English footballer speaking very decent Spanish (pronunciation-wise) during his presentation today in Barcelona.

One might say he's not as stupid as he looks.

Apparently he was a boyhood Barça fan and has been preparing for this moment by taking Spanish lessons, while not haring down the wing at Newcastle.

However, if he is not equally as fluent in Catalan by next year, he should be sold.

 

[The Situation]

Or more likely the move has been on for months which coincidentally would have been the same time as a huge dip in his performances at Newcastle.

He was a Liverpool fan a few days ago FFS.

I'm sure if he'd moved to Bayern he would've also been equally fluent in Jorman

 

[Gennaro Savastano]

He's been using all the time sitting on the bench to play on duo lingo.

@Biffo The Bear and I called it. He’s a smart cookie

Looks like the sort of suit your Mum would put on you for your first day of work experience

Saw a clip before where he's said once a Geordie always a Geordie

So he was a Red Scouser who became a Blue Scouser then he became a Geordie and now he's a Spaniard

Mixed up lad

Must have been rooming with Trent on international duty... Oh wait...

Still, very impressive to do that in your unveiling in Spain . Seems a decent lad, now that he's not a Mag .

I've always said to my Mag mates that he's a very good footballer who lets himself down with his cheating, diving and feigning injury. He was even up to it against us in the cup game ar the SoL when we were crap - going down with 2 broken legs every time he was tackled!

He's like a living DNA test

This. But to his credit his pronunciation is quite good. Hansi Flick still does everything in English.

Is this not just Scouse?

Looking more and more like a goblin every year!

I've had Catalan Scouse in a tapas place in Liverpool. Like standard Scouse with chorizo in it. 7/10

Plus the mysterious hip injury that kept him out for a few games
