SPURS boss Mauricio Pochettino has left football fans bemused after rambling about cows ahead of last night’s Champions League clash.
Commenting on how past experiences might affect Tottenham before their game against Inter Milan, the 46-year-old said: “It’s like a cow that every single day during 10 years sees the train crossing in the front at the same time. And if you ask the cow what time is the train going to come it’s not going have the right answer.” But he wouldn’t be the first famous figure to make statements that appear to be udder nonsense. Here JAMES MOORE has rounded up some other hilarious examples of gobbledygook… Footballing legend Eric Cantona: “When the seagulls follow the trawler, it’s because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea.”
Politician Boris Johnson: “I could not fail to disagree with you less.”
TV funnyman Russell Brand: “People don’t realise that the future is just now, but later.”
Ex-England boss Steve McClaren on Wayne Rooney: “He is inexperienced, but he’s experienced in terms of what he’s been through.”
Actor Richard Gere: “I know who I am. No-one else knows who I am. If I was a giraffe and somebody said I was a snake, I’d think: ‘No, I am a giraffe’.”
Boss Jose Mourinho on his players’ style: “Omelettes, eggs. No eggs, no omelettes. And it depends on the quality of the eggs in the supermarket. They are class one, two or three and some are more expensive than others and some give you better omelettes. When the class one eggs are not available you have a problem.”
Ex-US President George W Bush: “Our enemies are innovative and resourceful and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people and neither do we.” Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown: “Total spending will continue to rise and it will be a 0% rise in 201314.”
Actress Alicia Silverstone: “I think that the film Clueless was very deep. I think it was deep in the way that it was very light.”
Artist Tracey Emin:
“When it comes to words, I have a uniqueness that I find almost impossible in terms of art – and it’s my words that actually make my art quite unique.” Supermodel Naomi Campbell:
“I love England, especially the food. There’s nothing I like more than a lovely bowl of pasta.” Former Scotland manager Gordon Strachan:
“Genetically we are behind. In the last campaign we were the second smallest, apart from Spain. We had to pick a team to combat the height and strength at set-plays. Genetically we have to work at things, maybe we get big women and men together and see what we can do.” Ex-US Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld:
“As we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns – the ones we don’t know we don’t know.”
US President Donald
Trump on climate change: “We’ve had times where the weather wasn’t working out, so they changed it to extreme weather, and they have all different names, you know, so that it fits the bill.”
Football pundit Jamie
Redknapp: “These balls now – they literally explode off your feet.”
