I love Fabio, he makes me feel confident.
Also Antonio works hard and has a lot of 'passions' haha love it!
These passionate Italian's at our club is class.
Also love how he says this club deserves success.

Ok, I watched that interview and it annoyed me. As an English language teacher I can clearly tell that he hasn't made any effort learning English and does not have a tutor. Fabio paratici is a business man and he is earning huge money.

To have that many mistakes in his English is quite frankly unprofessional.

As it's on the same page, look at Hugo, his English is excellent and obviously he has been in England longer but he speaks to an advanced level.

It just frustrates me that Fabio paratici couldn't get close to passing an English (as a FL) test which is a basic requirement in almost all jobs in businesses abroad (let alone England). Yet he operates as a high ranking business man at spurs.

Hopefully he is taking classes to improve and doesn't become another poch.

Rant over

Jesus Christ, what a dumb take.

As long as he trades players effectively, I couldn't care less if he spoke exclusively in farm yard animal noises.

He's also been here 3 months and one would hope has more urgent priorities than mastering the Queen's.

The version on Spurs YouTube, the questions are so quiet I could barely make them out.

I understand he didn't want to talk about January and signings just yet, because that would piss the squad off immediately.

My take on it was that he seems to have about as much charisma as Levy. It’s no wonder they get on so well!!

Oh and it takes time. Tell that to Nuno lol

That is a press conference I would love to see

On the interview, just another example of an utterly pointless formality. He gives away nothing here. He gives bland answers to bland questions, and anything that could court controversy is easily side-stepped.

Question: "Does Harry Kane hate Spurs?"
Answer " Harry is an excellent player and will give his all to the club, as will everyone else"

Not blaming Paratici at all. That's exactly what he should be doing knowing how journos are looking to twist every word. What really surprises me is the poor technique of the journalists in asking about 3 questions at a time knowing that the interviewee will only every answer the easiest one. Pick one zinger of a question and you MIGHT get an interesting answer.

Ok….?He’s been in the country about 3 months and speaks better English that probably most English native speaking fans who go to our games ?

 

[ardiles&villa]

I like Fabio. Seems like a good guy.

As if England's the best country to learn English.
Next week he'll walk in to a press conference and say:
"Top-hole. Bally Jerry, pranged his kite right in the how's-your-father; hairy blighter, dicky-birded, feathered back on his sammy, took a waspy, flipped over on his Betty Harpers and caught his can in the Bertie."


...cue the puzzled look on Ally Gold.
