A team that my own team is playing against today has a Polish goalkeeper. A popular phrase that is chanted at opposing goalkeepers when they are taking goal kicks is.... 'you're shit' which is built up to a crescendo as they move back to kick the ball and then shouting the phrase as they kick the ball from the goal kick.

I am unable to find a translation for the word 'shit' and the closest I have found is:


Wy nie jesteście dobre

which I believe translates as 'You're not good'. Not quite the same edge on it, but perhaps enough to amuse.

Any help possible please? with the phrase and the pronunciation.

Thanks in advance.

"Wy nie jesteście dobre"

You (plural, women) are not good! (not exactly going to infuriate him).

**** is 'gówno' (GOOv-noh) but it isn't used as in English.

A native speaker will have to come up with something short and snappy.

Maybe DASZ DUPY! (you'll screw up, but worse) or DAJ DUPY! (screw up!)

or DUPKU! DUPKU! DUPKU! (roughly, (stupid) *******!)

I'd say:

Jesteście gnoje.
or
Jesteście kupą gówna.

But those don't work as chants. Maybe GNO-JU! GNO-JU! (this is being yelled to a single person)

WY jestEŚcie GÓwno WARci - the sense is right, and it scans...

And for bonus points, what's the Polish for:

He puts his transfer in,
he puts his transfer out,
in, out, in, out,
he f***s his club about,
he does the Cristiano,
and he changes his mind,
that's what it's all about.

Oh Ronaldo is a w****r, Oh Ronaldo is a w****r, Oh Ronaldo is a w****r,
knees bent, arms stretched, dive, dive, dive!

(To the tune of Hokey Cokey)

This particular chant is always aimed at the goalkeeper himself, not the team as a whole. So those versions that kept the original form would need (ty) jesteś not (wy jesteście) ;)
