Thought I would share this excerpt of Joel Santana (coach of the South African football team) trying to speak a kind of English.

Paul,

Thanks for posting this link...it made me chuckle this afternoon!

The subtitles are hilarious! I also liked the next video..."Funk do Joel". Quite amusing!

Best regards,

Tonia
