This is exactly why i like this italian team. There is the usual passion and dark arts, but Vialli and Mancini has achieved to give a collective attacking mindset to this Saquadra Azzura. I hope they will win this Euro.

Vialli lives in London since a couple of decades; his wife is English and the daughters are born in England. Besides, he is a smart, well educated guy: among soccer players, he was (and is) unusually articulate also in Italian.
His English was superb and sublime. He sounded really like a native. We wholeheartedly, sorely and dearly miss him both as a player and as a human being 😥😭😱
Gianluca, long shot but if you ever read this you was my hero growing up, you and Gianfranco made me fall in love with football so thank you so much. Up the Chels.
a Chelsea cult hero and a class act his appointment was honestly the start of something special for us in our ascent towards the top we were a decent mid table club when Gianluca arrived but after a few years with him as our player and manager we became consistent top 6 contenders and more importantly trophy winners. What a man.
@@christiangarau7647 watch interviews with John Terry - for me, he's one of the worst in terms of English (saying that as a former English teacher of 10 years, not as a snob but just from a grammatical point of view).
He's from a wealthy family. I'm sure that he learned English as a child. Then living in London with an English wife helps, too, to be fluent. He's a very intelligent man. He could have lived his life as a hotel realm heir playboy. He chose to be a sportsman and he turned out to be one of the best footballers in his country and in Europe.

Well, he had been playing as footballer and manager in Premier for years, got married a beautiful english lady and he still lives in UK spending time between London and Italy. I think it's enough to achieve a good command of english language...
@@graziflorida4377 To be honest, nowdays Italy has a Prime Minister, Mario Draghi, the former president of BCE, who speaks an english as impeccable and fluent as Vialli's one.
Maybe you haven't looked hard enough. Incidentally, how many British or American people have you seen express themselves in Italian or in any other foreign language eloquently?
R.I.P ...a true legend, I remember waking up early back in the day to watch Gazzeta football Italia...a lot of fans might not know how awesome Vialli and Ravanelli were at Juventus...truly one of the most underrated strikers because he was a total masterclass.
A true gentleman!!! If you don´t know what to wear, take a look at Vialli or Mancini, class act!!!! The world need´s more gentlemen and less haters today!! R.I.P Gianluca.
How embarrassing when an Italian of obvious grace and intelligence can speak English so eloquently while many British footballers can barely string a coherent sentence together.
Vialli and Mancini, together you made a history for your own country.You gave to all of your generation fans a huge contribution regardless even some of them were a different countries fans. God bless both of you.
What a class have Vialli goddamn. If only just half of the players (read clowns) of today have his same class, personality, honesty fotball today would be a way better sport imho.
Vialli and mancini had to be one of the stand out strike partnerships nether of them are classic strikers yet in a period of big goal bound centre forwards they excelled. What they brought together after their retirement has been special too when Italy won the euros it felts like the pinnacle of these guys decades long partnership. Vialli will be missed
Obviously, easy for me to say that being half Italian, lucky to be at Wembley on the day - but the image at the end of the Euro's will always be remembered.
His English is essentially perfect. I was so surprised that he was able to infer what the interviewer meant by the _"Did you work on that relationship?"_ question. There are players and managers who have played and managed the majority of their lives in England who would visibly release question marks when asked that question.
@J .....so, when you grow up in a Castle, especially if it is huge, ....you automatically speak English ? I did not know that ! I live in a 1000 square feet apartment and I speak Italian, French and English !! My dad was a truck driver ! How do you explain that??!?
Quest’uomo è il miglior Capitano che la Juve abbia avuto, impersonificava la forza, l’eleganza, la voglia di vincere e la tenacia. Se ci fosse stato lui in campo non avremmo perso le altre finali
FACT: Vialli is from Italian aristocracy. Despite a tremendous career and fame, his wealth is dwarfed by his family inheritance. Humble, intelligent and truly a wonderful guy.
Wow, Vialli's English is excellent! I'm used to Italians speaking with a heavy accent and struggling to express themselves (DEL PIERO ON ESPN), but Vialli is a pro

You mean Italian soccer player ! Be more specific! There are millions of unknown Italians that speak great English, they just dont play all soccer with the National team !
Great player as was Mancini. Lots of wonderful players in their time. Glad to see the new generation has lots of quality too. Always a fan of Italy, even when they beat my own country Belgium a few weeks ago!
I’m Italian but I practically grew with AmE as a second language, then I graduated in Foreign Languages with a major in English. I’ve met so many people from so many different countries. Usually people look down to us (Italians) and to other Southern Europeans as really bad English speakers, and you can immediately tell where we’re from by the accent. I’m really impressed by how fluently he speaks but most of all by his accent!! Amazing!!
Meno male che in America Latina stanno figliando. Prima o poi anche lì ci sarà più sviluppo e ci divertiremo quando sarà richiesto al nord di imparare almeno lo spagnolo nel quale gli italiani saranno fluenti in 6 mesi col minimo sforzo. Chissà se ci sarà il luc daun all'inverso.
British people will NEVER look down on any foreign person speaking coherent English. It doesn't have to be perfect only understandable. Which is more than can be said for some British people who don't even speak our native language properly anyway.
We lost this beautiful man and legend today.. Rest in peace Gianluca❤
Rest in peace. A gentleman of the sport.
Vialli's English was impeccable
Italy & England football fans will miss him.

Love Vialli. A class act on and off the pitch.
What a man. Bellotti is lucky to have Vialli coaching in the squad.
Can tell he's intelligent just from his spoken English. Speaks more clearly and eloquently than most of the current England starting 11
He was the Chelsea manager at the same time Chelsea player. He will never managed to did both position if he couldn't speaks english properly
Very well spoken guy.
