As you might notice, english is my second language as well but it isn't that hard all it takes is some effort so i do question his "heart" when it comes to playing for the flames
He did take english lessons before he came over here. If you've ever tried to learn a new language, it's very difficult to do.

Right now I'm trying to learn French. I find reading it in French and converting it to English is the easiest. Listening, and trying to translate it into your native language is the by far the hardest part of learning a new language.

So when the guys on the bench are talking to him, I feel for him. It's very difficult to understand. I think he's doing very well considering.
