Martin O’Neill has signed a new foreign superkid.
On the new boy’s first day of training, O’Neill picks up a ball and shouts very slowly:
“You get this and kick it at the goal.”
The new superkid looks a bit bewildered but carries on nonetheless.
The next day at training, exactly the same thing happens.
O’Neill stops play, scoops the ball up and shouts - even slower than last time:
“You get this and score a goal.”
Again the young foreign kid looks discombobulated, but carries on.
On the third day, it happens again:
“You get this and score a goal.”
This time, the foreign superkid finally cracks, so shouts to his new manager:
“Boss, I speak very good English and know what to do!”
O’Neill says:
“Not you son, I’m talking to Heskey!”
