VfL Wolfsburg - Borussia Dortmund - Steve McClaren im Interview

[jimmy199244]

He's an idiot for not learning the language, all the managers who are foreign and manage in the premiership have to learn it. No wonder he was rubbish as England manager. I feel sorry for the people at home trying to understand and put up with this translator.

@jimmy199244 .. you can't learn german overnight

[predatorhateex]

@jimmy199244 in england practically no-one speaks german, so a german manager in the PL would be forced to learn quickly. in germany people speak excellent english so there isnt the same pressure to learn german.

i'm guessing also, that you speak several languages excellently (you probably can barely even speak english properly! )

[kuyt90]

@predatorhateex you said a german manager in the PL would be forced to learn quickly, and then you said in germany people speak excellent english ? what would they be forced to learn in the PL then ? LOL just wondering...

[haggisman1971]

Give Steve a break, he's only been there a couple of months and can't possibly be expected to converse in the language after such a short time.

[TurbulentG]

hahahaha he doesent even speak german the fucking pillock why would any team get a manager who doesent even speak german

[MatchAttaxTradeTV1]

@TurbulentG you arent too

[TurbulentG]

@MatchAttaxTradeTV1 wie bitte ich kann deutsch reden

[thebri2]

The most cringeworthy part of it is the slow, considered way he speaks as if speaking English to a roomful of people who might not understand... except he has a translator! He patronises the translator by speaking in a stupid, dumbed-down, faux-German way and probably makes the guy's job harder!

"I-zi keethin."= "is the key thing."

Some people have a good ear for accents and can't help but pick them up, a lot of uni students will tell you that, they pick up some of the dialect and accent, and some people can go full blown. It's funny how people laugh at Steve McClaren, but no-one ever had anything to say about Jan Molby.

[thebri2]

@Tomdom88 Jan Molby is a Dane who learnt English with a Liverpool accent after years working there. Steve McClaren is an Englishman who speaks English with a German accent (!) after working there for.. a few months! The two are not comparable.

The equivalent is Molby speaking Danish in an English accent after three months in England... ridiculous no? It would be understandable if McClaren spoke German in a German accent...

McClaren has made a conscious decision to sound like an idiot!

[jonasHM]

@thebri2 he does not speak with a german accent in this video clip

[madness2901]

whats all that about,first class twat

[DaiDaithesequel]

I think he is a good enough manager but where is this bloody accent coming from?

[tom02021988]

[obiy2k]

I love the Germans...bottles of beer on the table...Nice!

[MikefromMadrid]

@obiy2k wtf

[obiy2k]

@MikefromMadrid Erm the Krombacher Beer...Do you not see it? If I was Schteve, I would stop the interview tell all the journos to chill out, while I crack open a Krombacher.

[8KeyserSoze8]

Wahey! Ritual humiliation of an English manager who has the temerity to try and coach abroad. Wahey!

Does speak like a bit of a tit though.
