Juan Jesus

So do I - but there is an accent on the u as in Jesús
Also don't they speak Portuguese in Brazil?

 

Is this a whoosh? They speak Brazilian....

 

Sorry but Brazilian is not a language ...

However it is a cracking hair style

 

**** him - he doesn't have a say in the matter. Jee-zuss it will be.

 

24 years old with 104 appearances for Inter and 5 for Brazil

Could grow into a real star

 

:whoosh:

BOOM!

 

great! do you want to know how they pronounce it in portuguese?

 

Brazil took its name from a tree

 

I thought Brazil got its name from an overweight no talent alcoholic freeloader of a radio presenter

 

You two are both nuts, Brazil takes it's name from Brasilia its capital. Sheesh

 

No Brasilia was founded in 1960, Brazil is much older.

 

:whoosh:

 

In Portuguese, Brazil means 'Land of silver.'

 

That's Argentina.

 

Brazil was named after Toni Brazil, the choreographer who had a hit with 'Mickey'.

 

So, Juan Jesus eh

 

The "land of brazilwood"

 

I didn't have a clue so I whacked it into Google and it sounded more like "shey-zoose". Any good?

 

Don't think Argentina means Brazil in Portuguese m8?

 

I thought it was Hey Zeus.

 

depends where in brazil he is from i guess. but change the shey for a jey and youre there!

 

:whoosh:

The clue is in the name

 

In Ireland its pronounced

"Jay-sus"

They also pronounce

"Fxck" as "Feck"

The rest of their words, I dont have clue what they re going on about tbh

CHELSEA TO TARGET JUAN JESUS

Inter Milan defender Juan Jesus is a potential transfer target for Chelsea, according to Mediaset.

The 25-year-old is rumoured to be heading for the exit at the San Siro and it is thought the Blues are considering the Brazilian as an alternative to Roma defender Antonio Rudiger.

Rudiger recently suffered a bad injury while away with Germany at Euro 2016.

Sky Sports Transfer gossip feed suggesting Chelsea want him now, probably just an easy rumour to churn out as they have an incoming Italian manager and he is reportedly available from a top Italian side... I can't wait for something to actually happen to talk about.

 

So long as he don't make it bad.

 

At least we would have a good chant.

 

defo would...even nowadays

 

According to that tremendous brainbox and Classics prof,Peter Jones, 'Z' in Ancient Greek is pronounced 'sd' and the diphthong 'eu' is 'ayew'.So that may put the tin hat on simple old 'Zeus' then!

 

More accurately, there is no real "Z" in Ancient Greek. Zeta (Capital = Z, lower case = ζ ) is pronounced "zd", not really an English Z at all.

 

It's a brilliant squiggle though!

 

Whoever invented the Greek alphabet was probably well bladdered by the time he got to Z!

 

Zeta is the sixth letter of the Ancient Greek alphabet, so (s)he must have started early then!

 

My personal favourite is 'xi' our x.It is a belter in both forms! Takes me ages to write the lower case,thankfully it is rare!

Meanwhile is this chap heading to Chelsea?

 

You're right!

It is a wonder they had time to write all their plays,build their temples etc. It must have taken them forever to get it all down,with all those curls and squiggly chaps going on!

 

€10mil bid made according to the Italian media
