Pablo Zabaleta is top of the class at Manchester City after mastering English in just seven months .
The Argentine barely had a word of the Queen's when he arrived from Espanyol in August, but has not missed a single lesson with the club's tutor and is now comfortable doing interviews in English.
Unfortunately the same can't be said of his fellow South Americans Elano, Robinho and Felipe Caicedo .
Zabaleta's feat is nothing compared to Manucho's at Hull.
After doing a fine impersonation of a tailor's dummy when interviewed through an interpreter on Monday, minutes later he was spotted at a petrol station near Hull's Cottingham training ground yabbering away like a local.
