Hector Bellerin: The B's Knee

[Makingtrax]

How's that the same as an admittedly unverified audio clip? I mean skepticism is fine but dismissing it completely out of hand is intellectually dishonest imo.

It has the hall marks of fake news bro.

So unless there's any further information, I'm dismissing it out of hand.

Just listened...that sounds a lot like him. Like a lot, a lot.

2. At times, the accent lapses into something you'd hear on a video uploaded by the chicken connoisseur.

I did think this at times, I know he's got a very London accent but it did sound a bit too London at times.

You're only rubbishing the authenticity of the recording because he slags off Wengers training. Sooo obvious these days.

Guarantee if he was talking about squad cost and how Wenger is an unsung hero because Kroenke forces him not to spend we'd have Mr Trax claiming it's 100% legit and that he, in fact, was the one who recorded it.

Who is Bellerin talking to in this tape?

 

[Trilly]

Last post on the matter.

If the clip is real, do you think anybody connected to the club would ever confirm it? This is how conspiracy theories begin. The rumour going around that some guy is claiming it was a prank made by his brother is the exact kind of thing that a huge corporation would do.

Also that seemed like a genuine conversation between Hector and a friend about trying to join Barcelona (I haven't heard the full length one but the short one seemed very very genuine). If it is a prank then that's a weird prank because there was nothing funny about it and it seemed very very real. The little nuances in the conversation, the way 'he' described the conversation between himself and the board...just seemed very real.

Except if he was talking to family or friends about anything, the chances are it would be in Spanish.

I don't think so, there's definitely debate to be had here. He's been here long enough that the debate on his go-to language could go either way.

Also in the clip 'he' is definitely talking to a friend and from the language used it's not a friend from Spain.

I'm from ends I can tell, seriously.

Incredible deduction Holmes.

100% not real. I skipped in a bit and the voice started to sound off, bizarre really.

Can't make a comment if it is Bellerin or not (haven't heard him talk enough ) but to claim that AFTV is behind this because of Bellerin's comments against the channel is ****ing mad.
There is far too much to lose for the AFTV guys if this gets exposed as a fake that they're behind. Robbie makes a nice wee earner from the channel and will continue to do so despite Hector's comments (people will still watch it), but for them to go out and try and stitch up, and tarnish the career of one of their clubs own players just because of a small comment would make them look like mental, petty, egomaniacs and would reflect horribly on AFTV - like the end of it, no more, channel over.

Even if it is him, who cares?

That's exactly right , he's entitled to say whatever he wants in private . You have to wonder what type of person starts recording this stuff .

This from the BBC this morning:

The Malicious Use of Artificial Intelligence report warns that AI is ripe for exploitation by rogue states, criminals and terrorists . . . . . . . . They outlined some of the scenarios where AI could turn "rogue" in the near future:
. . . . . . .

• Bots could use speech synthesis to impersonate targets

Thought it was a bit too clever for AFTV

 

[El Duderino]

Wait until AFTV find out what deep fakes are...

Did you think the grab em by the ***** tape was fake news as well?

 

[shootxhakashoot]

if its not him its a bloody good impression.....

Not all AFTV think it is him , that new guy on AFTV @theplugafc says it isn't legit , consdiering how triggered he was by what Bellerin said in the first place.

Also even if it is real it only confirms what mostly already know. He wants to go back to Spain eventually ideally Barca, hes Barca born and bred after all. Couldnt find anything in the recording about training methods etc but if it is him he clearly feels mugged of by false promises from the clubs management too.
Hardly surprising and dont blame the lad, is a sh**ty bit of work recording him though.
I've said it before the players arent the problem at this club, good luck to him if Barca want him, theyll suit his game down to the ground.

If it is him I don’t see what he’s doing wrong exactly. A private conversation with family or friends about his career/life, that’s all it is.

It’d only be wrong if Bellerin planted it himself to try and force a move in the summer.
