I don't think so he's naturally funny so I don't think he will faking his bad english in the camera one thing is for sure he can understand what his teammate is saying if your learning english you know how it feels to understand what people around you saying and you can't even say anything because you're still not that good im really bad at english back then but over the years its gotten better but its still bad tho compared to others
