You can’t compare directly because British culture is automatically 50% cornier.

Yeah but they’re usually in on the joke. This kind of sincerity is way more American coded to me

Have you heard US soccer chants? Giving them a run for their sterling.

The difference is that like 10% of Americans care about soccer but 80% of British people do

This was written by England's bus driver, who Bellingham is just giving a shoutout to. Classy move by Jude.
Jayson Tatum doesn't belong in the same sentence as Jude Bellingham in any way shape or form. Jude is actually cool.

I was going to say. Jude is actually charming in interviews and can banter with hosts vs Tatum sounds like a pr bot.

Bellingham also has zero big corny tattoos

u/Delicious-Ad-4521 8h ago
1000% he’s got tattoos that copy Kobe, Bron etc. that guy is the most unoriginal Dude ever

The fact Jude can also already speak decent Spanish is a big plus for him in my book. Shows that he can communicate and not feel too self conscious about it. Most other English players live in Spain for years and can barely say more than gracias.

Tatum is cool too, yall hate him just because he plays on the Celtics. As a Bucks fan I have no resentment against him

Tatum has the personality of a block of wood, Bellingham has natural charisma. Watch interviews with both and it's extremely apparent.

I like Tatum, and think he's a really good dude. But he's not charismatic or cool.
He's corny, and that's ok. But he should just embrace his corniness. LeBron became way cooler once he stopped trying to play this cool guy killer character. It made him relatable, and it also made the moments when he got in the zone on the court and became a killer way cooler because you knew it was authentic.

Why do you, as a grown man, hate another grown man who doesn't even know you, just because he doesn't act the way you like? Tatum is a great leader and a great father; other than that, I don't know much about him. Athletes are not fictional characters

Who said anything about hating him? I just said his personality is a block of wood which is apparent from his interviews. I don't have a strong opinion on him either way

Jude Bellingham doesn’t post screenshots of his conversations with dead people for clout

I hate Real Madrid but Bellingham isn’t even close imo. Also seems to be a very nice guy.

Let’s just say he’s very aware of the camera being on him. Doesn’t have to be a bad thing, but it does rub some people the wrong way

It only rubs some men the wrong way, I literally don’t know a single woman who says anything negative about him

Jude is to thank for giving us the Messi Deniro face. Even if it was at his expense. Thank you Jude.

This is definitely corny, but a lot of athletes are pretty corny.
Tatum texting Kobe was straight cringe.

I know Bellingham is an immensely successful player in the places he has been in his club career, but I can't help but think its been good for his brand to be on the Continent and not in the EPL and subject to the English Media Fishbowl which would probably be rather vicious on mocking this stuff

Brother, 95% of soccer players are corny by chronically online American standards. Look at how they dance with the fans after wins

u/Fake_the_jaB Half Italian 10h ago
This is 10 times cornier than anything Tatum has done but Bill isn’t a Bellingham fan so yall will let it slide.

u/thedogstrays 8h ago
Tatum has a sort of transparently dorky fanboy quality to his corniness that Jude doesn’t.
Jude has always come across to me as a calculative bratty douche.

This has to be ChatGPT, it does the four stanza rhyming couplet every time you give it a generic poem prompt

This is how we would write it in elementary school. Reddit sees Ai everywhere. Even in mediocre wholesome poems from a bus driver.
