midian Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I dont think its him on Twitter because surely he would leave his profile open to private messages also favouriting Bentekes goal today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yayoboy Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I can't find the tweet to link, but I remember seeing some French journo saying when we officially announced the signing "don't be fooled by the account, Jordan doesn't do social media"....

avfc1982am Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Maybe not then but in the tweets around the 3 july there are personal selfies with his missus. Who cares anyway twatter is crap. As long as he settles ok and does the business on the pitch he'll be adored by all villa fans while he wears our colours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 That's not his twitter. He doesn't speak English yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) That's not his twitter. He doesn't speak English yet. An extremely brief tweet, using an unnatural construction (new player of) and a spelling mistake (verry), doesn't prove his ability to speak English.

In fact, did you know that Lexicon himself is known to not be able to utter a word of spoken English. He speaks only Welsh, in which he converses with his grandmother in the cottage kitchen. That's how I imagine him, anyway. Not sure why. The image is also non nation-specific, so substitute a rare Alpine dialect of Italian if that makes it easier to conjure up.

An extremely brief tweet, using an unnatural construction (new player of) and a spelling mistake (verry), doesn't prove his ability to speak English. I watched his AVTV interview (which was all in French). He said that he is looking forward to learning English. Granted, that doesn't mean that's not his Twitter. I think it's highly unlikley though.

It's really basic - he could easily have written it. As he's French, he most likely studied English a bit at school, so he probably knows a little.

As he's French, he most likely studied English a bit at school, so he probably knows a little. even if you do not understand english, or do not speak it, I can more or less guarantee you that 95% of the civilized world are able to use the words such as 'like' , 'I' , 'car' 'blue', 'love' etc. You do know the whole world uses English, right?

Tippers Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I think this guy is the real deal and we are lucky to have him on board. Cannot wait to see him in action. Him and Gueye will complement each other well. He could be the midfield powerhouse we've needed for some time. Future captain material on the basis that he sticks around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Pace was just a bit too much for him today. Going to take time. Was absolutely blowing on the bench behind Sherwood. Edited August 8, 2015 by rodders0223 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
