Francophile Heartbreak

That Frank Yallop, such a downer.

Can anyone guess who on the Galaxy, if this deal had indeed gone through this year, would be able to converse with Zidane in French?

  1. French? No idea. I'm pretty sure Zidane speaks Spanish, though. So there should be no problem!

  2. Oh, yeah? Well, if you can't guess who speaks French, care to name those who speak Spanish?

  3. I believe that would be Alexi Lalas.

  4. Lalas does speak Spanish, as well as Italian, so he could speak to Zidane in both, since Zidane speaks Italian. But other Galaxy players can also roll their "r"s. Notably, Landon Donovan, Joe Cannon and Chris Albright speak passable Spanish.

    Fine, I'll ruin the suspense regarding the other matter.

    Cobi Jones studied and speaks French.

  5. I'm betting Yallop or one of the other Canadian players may know a bit of French as it is spoken a bit in that country to the north. ;)
