Monday; Carlo Ancelotti is appointed as the new Chelsea manager. His very first interview, admittedly covered by ChelseaTV, is entirely in English. He may have even thrown in the odd 'to be honest' line just so show his street cred, but alas no 'nowotameaaaaan?'. Yet, the first thing analysts say is "well he really needs to improve on his English". Only one bloke, I think he was a normal Sky News (not Sky Sports News) reporter put someone back into their box. When the main news presenter said something about him only having managed in Italy (well only the premier league in the world over the past 15 years on average for those with short memories) and couldn't speak English properly. The reporter, on the scene at Stanford Bridge, pointed out that a. he managed AC Milan including UCL wins and b. only three players at Chelsea actually speak English as their mother tongue, the rest Carlo can deal with in Spanish, Italian, French etc as he pleases.
Ever since all I read I hear is about how his first battle is to learn English. FFS.... move on you gits.
