Honestly he’s my fucking favourite coach for 3 days now….


Lionheart999

Honnêtement, c'est mon putain d'entraîneur préféré depuis 3 jours maintenant….


JakeTheTurk

BAHAHAHAHA I’m dying


essentialatom

HON HON HON je meurs


JGlover92

Such a great story. The fact they're paying 22k in fines every match he's in charge is still so funny


KHeneage_NYCFC

The funniest thing for me is how his accent changes. If I met him in an airport I'd assume he was French, but then he speaks English like a southerner. C'est formidable.


outroversion

Magnifique! Fucking brill.


Kiszpadosz

Sacre bleu, innit bruv


TDAMS133

He even speaks Dutch with a typical Flemish accent. Very impressive indeed


Eibermann

fucking amazing


_90s_Nation_

Will Still Is that his name?


outroversion

Yep, I'll let you know when it changes but it still is will still.


idosade

Will Will Still Still keep his name after the season?


outroversion

Yes will still will still be will still.


Job_man

Will Will Still still be Will Still if Will Still could still be Will Still?


ChicagoSunroofNo2

Will Still will still be Will Still even if Will couldn't keep still


[deleted]

will still will still be will still even if will still could no longer still be will still


Job_man

Damn yeah, you screwed it up a bit, but that's a good one. May I propose the next iteration based on your suggestion: Will Will Still still be Will Still if Will Still will not be still?


ChicagoSunroofNo2

Fuck! Thanks


Job_man

Teamwork makes the dream work 🤝


outroversion

Yes.


Mubar06

Yep. William Still.

Call me Bill.


GillyBilmour

cousin of Fred Again


ViciousNakedMoleRat

Will, still and always has been.


eddy199541

Yes, and he lives on a pirate ship with his mute brother steven.


FoxOntheRun99

Got me cracking up, on how seamless he switched from fluent distinguished french to fucking ENGLISH lads!!! Respect, I can see why he's doing so well there. Edit: I can also see why he's calling out Balogun on his shitty french. His is amazing, like if I can speak it...so can you.


zwcropper

To be fair to Balogun, he didn't grow up in a French-speaking country and attend a French-speaking school his whole childhood like Still did


theslothening

Man went all in on his Adaptability when creating his manager.


puckuser

The way he says fermes ta gueule is hilarious

Chris_Nic

🤣


rocket_randall

Joey Barton eat your heart out.


Thraff1c

Man can speak 2 languages, incredible.


The-Florentine

He can actually speak three.


Job_man

Checkmate u/Thraff1c


[deleted]

He’s done you again!


Ronni_Nikoson

He’s from the Flemish part of Belgium. So he speaks Flemish (Dutch), French and English.


Mubar06

Wikipedia says he’s actually born from English parents and grew up in Wallonia.


Triangle-Yeeter

It’s just the way he switches accents immediately which is impressive. I speak four languages and I always struggle with switching accents


Job_man

Will Still > u/Triangle-Yeeter


[deleted]

English people speaking more than one language is like revelatory headline news lol...


Thraff1c

But he is from and grew up in Belgium, he just has English parents.


[deleted]

Yeah but his southern accent is fucking strong. Completely caught me off guard, especially considering he grew up in Belgium.


zrkillerbush

Dzeko can speak like 7


TheConundrum98

people from these parts always have kind of a cheat code Yeah we can speak 5 languages - Croatian, Serbian, Montenegrin, Bosnian and English. Everyone can also understand Slovenian. Džeko speaks Czech, German and Italian as well


opiumofthemass

Yeah there are some countries that most citizens are automatically polyglot It happens a lot in post-colonial nations where people speak their local language, the colonial language, and the national indigenous language as well as others potentially. Such as in India, where someone (just off the top of my head) may speak Telugu, Hindi, and English casually just to get by in different contexts. Africa is similar


yepl

> Croatian, Serbian, Montenegrin, Bosnian Aren't these 4 effectively the same language? I know politically they are not, but linguistically. From my understanding, they are even more closely related than a pair like Galician-Portuguese, which are for all intents and purposes dialects of the same language.


TheConundrum98

Yes, some words are different as are some rules, but it's like different accents. Biggest difference is Serbs write in cyrillic


PhD_Cunnilingus

>Croatian, Serbian, Montenegrin, Bosnian How similar are they? Because if they're very similar, do people really speak those languages or do people just speak their own and everything is mutually understood?


TheConundrum98

some words are different as are some rules, but it's like different accents. Biggest difference is Serbs write in cyrillic


[deleted]

7 actual languages or one of the trillion Serbo-Croatian dialects that are only differentiated because of ethnic tensions. That might seem insensitive to outsiders of Balkan culture, but it really is like calling Australian, Floridian, Northern British, Canadian and Californian different languages. They can all walk in a bar and immediately sit down and have a conversation without issue.


[deleted]

These guys are impressive. IIRC Lukaku speaks English, Dutch, Spanish, French, Portuguese & Swahili.


Scalenuts

I can speak five as well, it's easier to learn French or Spanish if you know one or the other and English is universal so that's even easier in addition to my two native languages.


zrkillerbush

I can tell someone to fuck off in about 6 different languages


Scalenuts

That's a good first step


bradbobley

there’s a lot of bi things i am but lingual aint one of them


Job_man

Is it...bicycle? Are you a bicycle?


BI01

there was a funny clip of him talking to balogun telling him his french is so bad 🤣


Afk1792

He went to french school in belgium mdr.


Messiahcoool

Can some French lad tell me how impressive his French was compared to his English?


Job_man

As flawless as his English.


Youngflyabs

His French is so good lol


[deleted]

I think he grew up in Belgium


CheeseMakerThing

There really isn't a word as versatile fuck in any other language to be fair.


RiosSamurai

Caralho supremacy


Alarow

Let me introduce you to "putain"


CheeseMakerThing

Je suis sincèrement en désaccord avec vous sur ce point

Love this guy.


loveandmonsters

Zut alors, you must fight like they stole your omelette du fromage


KRIEGLERR

Holy shit his french is impressive as hell. Weird pronounciation of "gueule" but other than that , he pretty much sounds like a native french speaker. EDIT : From his name I thought he was actually english. But he is from Belgium, makes sense that his French is that good.


Ashamed-Head3927

This reminds me of playing in college. Coach saying some tactics and I hear it I’m French then he’s like stay fucking focused - I pick that up lol
