Anon Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 It boils my piss that some players are only referred to using their full name every time by commentators. Current example is Naby Keita. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 See Rennes have been awarded victory for the Spurs game, so that's them out of the Conference League, which I'm sure they're gutted about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happinesstan Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 You people are obsessed with what other people call other people. i remember when you all got up in arms about Ayoze Peres being called by his proper name. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRaspberryJam Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Dunno which thread it was in, but remember Batty being discussed the other day. This popped up on my FB TL when a Leeds mate commented on it.

Gets confusing when we play FIFA and “Perez” has the ball. I hear you - I used to be a teacher, and getting kids’ names is really important. You ask them to pronounce it, repeat it back and listen for corrections. Some of the pronunciation is diabolical - from Karlo Darlow in goals to San-Maxima up front.

There was a week long inquest into how to say his name. Just ask the fucker. Similar thing with Mourinho. Is it Jose, hose, yossie? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieDazzler Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 No matter how corrupt the PL is, FIFA will always be the OG's It will happen too as they'll offer financial incentives to the smaller federations to outvote the European leagues.

number37 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Would be hilarious if UEFA and CONMEBOL just choose to enter the "properly timed" World Cups (2022, 2026, 2030, etc) and not Wenger's new additional ones. They can incentivise via the brown envelope method all they like but I can't see how a Trinidad v Denmark final generates that extra $3bn for FIFA.

LV Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 It would be fucking shite. Cheapening the game again and again for the pursuit of lucre. Fuck it, let’s simulate games from now on using AI making sure only the current best teams and players win and get top brands to sponsor it. The Amazon World Cup with E-Ronaldo winning the Gazprom Golden Boot again in 2059 for the 35th year running. Brazil and Germany finalists again. England out on penalties in the quarters.
