I was curious as to how the hell Fabio communicates from the touchline as he can not speak a word of English.

Also is the rule is that you have to have English blood to play for your country, why is not the same to manage it?.

I want an Englishman in charge of my Country who has his team and country at heart.

So, even though it's been well documented that his english is actually pretty good you're confused as to how he communicated from the touchline? Another Croydon cretin.
Did you see his interview after the game last night?? OBVIOUSLY NOT. He needed an interpreter to relay his after match thoughts and did not speak a word in English. :yahoo: so before you go throwing stupid insults get your facts right.

He does speak some english, but doesn't want to use it on the press until more fluent.
He was on the touchline a lot of the time and clearly communicating with the players.

If you pull your head out of your arse for a moment you would know that he has decided he will not speak in English to the PRESS just yet as they have a habit of twisting what is said, so he would rather stick to his native tongue to ensure that he is certain of what he is saying. However, he speaks to the players in English.

f*** me, for someone with such a strong opinion on the subject you know absolutely f*** all.

He speaks English to the team and Italian to the press because he doesn't want to be misrepresented in the papers. Everyone knows this.

Doesn't speak English??? Should get on well with the people of Croydon

If you'd watched the news conference after, you'd have noticed Peter Crouch saying :

"His English was very good. That surprised a lot of the players, the fact he was getting his message across in English. "

"If he had a point to make, he certainly put it across strongly. We all know where we stand. "


The reason why he's chosen not to speak to the press in English is because, like yours, his English is not perfect and that he doesn't want the media to twist what he says.
