Tekashi69 doesnt have to answer to a professional sports body?
This is looked at as a purely sporting person trying to stop other teams having their players and stuff so their club is left in a disadvantage - it's got hardly anything whatsoever for doing something racist.
Don't necessarily disagree with this at all. I do think there'd be a a few butt hurt if it got rejected though.
No I wouldn't because I am black, speak Spanish and respect other languages. Shall we ban all foreign people from using their vocabary because the English might get upset? What words in Spanish to his Uruguayan mates is he allowed to say now? Shall we compile a list of banned Spanish words?
Can say what he wants in private. Gotta be more thoughtful using a public platform.
He doesn't because his language is also valid on Instagram and that is a normal part of the language. I think people are being anglocentric here.
No but players should be aware of how things can be perceived, plus he'd be more than familiar to what went on with that pool bellend. All players should know whatever the put on social media will be harshly scrutinised, that's just how things are now.
A couple of questions..
No, no and no.
He's speaking his native language to a fellow countryman, should be nothing to do with the snowflakes over here.
+1 from me, unbelievable that this is a thing.
Therein lies the problem, you know what racism truly is. You have to be white to get offended by something that amounts to the square root of feck all.
he'll be put in a dungeon for 10 years.He gets himself more chances so is bound to waste more.
He will be, no doubt. Bewildered at the rationale behind it all, but will just get on with it.
Stop making sense.
You're a dinosaur. Get with the insanity of the 2020 anglophone world.
Yeah he definitely inspired the comeback that day,Eddy could have had a hattrick of headers because how good was that leap on Wan Bissaka's cross.
oh, so language can only be racist or wrong if you’re trying to rile up the person that it relates to?????
I understand different words in context and culture but that word in particular has history in English football and at United in particular.
Isn't that what being "fan" all about? We defend our own players, our own team while pointing forks at the other opponents, not to mention that's Liverpool.
So I'm pretty sure this is untrue. Suarez said "negro" and not "negrito" as far as I remember. His camp tried to spin it to be "negrito" and it has evidently worked.
Why do you think it is OK to be called a black friend, by a white person? Does the same white person call his other friends, his white/Asian friends, directly when talking to them?
That may well be the case and if it is then so be it.
Well you're entitled to your opinion but I can't say I agree when you look at the respective contexts.
I agree and understand that there is context to it all. I am NOT saying that Cavani is as bad as Suarez in any way.
Suarez used "negro", and it was in a heated rivalry and when he was kicking Evra.
No you're absolutely right. Even Suarez admitted that he called Evra negro in his autobiography. Our fans are genuinely thick that they got influenced by Liverpool's PR blitz.
The current affairs in this world continue to blow my mind. How this absolute non-story is turning into a forest fire is just beyond me.
All these years, with so many articles, FA report available for download and still people don't know what word was used and somehow believe the Liverpool cover up job. They leaked the other word to the press and tried to change the whole thing.
Another thing is , only recently I have seen Carragher and the likes of 'Hendo' come forward and say how stupid it was for them to print T-shirts in support of Suarez. Does it take this long for the club and it's associates to admit it was a massive mistake?
How insensitive of the FA for not accommodating nuances from other cultures. They have to be fined for that.
Did you see some of the teams put out by Fergie???
Wanna bet?
