I have to say I do cringe at our reporting on stuff.
Whilst swooning over Mbappe playing on a pitch, they are more interested in talking about the beer festival at the start, they still aren’t able to speak fluent German and they were both seriously injured.
Maybe I’m just a grumpy old man but none of the above makes me think that they are bold, chirpy or gallus and have a fantastic attitude.
What an angle you’re coming from.
16 year old lads move to Germany on their own, Covid hits and they’re utterly isolated and stranded.
And your reaction is to say they should be fluent in German.
Anyone would “swoon” over Mbappe, especially a teenager. And yeah, if you’ve been unable to socialise for over a year, have just turned 18, you might chat about the world’s largest beer festival being on your doorstep for a minute or two.
You’re right, you are a grump.
