Does it bug anyone how the announcers pronounce Santi's name? It may be correct but still bothers me when I see Cazorla on the back of his jersey but hear them say Cathorla.

Guess I didn't notice due the the ball continuously ripping the net. Plus I was multitasking.

I was playing it on my PC as I worked and was mostly listening. Everytime they said his name it sounded like a gay dude with a major lisp.

I think that's the correct pronunciation in many parts of Spain, although it does sound dumb coming from an English commentator.

Ca-thor-la is the correct pronunciation, and I think many Europeans/Britons take more care to pronounce names as heard in their native language.

Does their pronouncing Nacho Monreal's name correctly and not Naaa-cho Mon-reel sound dumb, too?

No, right?

We're used to it here given the Spanish we're exposed to . We're not used to Spanish of Spain.

But the British are. And I bet "Cathorla" doesn't sound nearly as strange to them.

Anyways, is this a replay worth watching? While it'd be nice to see all the goals, doesn't seem like a full watching would give much insight into the team.

I'd just watch the highlights.

I think the "th" is only for those that are from the Catalan speaking parts of Spain right?

Maybe a poor choice of words on my part, but I feel like most of them treat foreign names as just oddly-spelled English. How many times have you heard Chicharito called "Chick-a-ree-toe"?

Catalan, Galician, Valencian, and some other dialects that I don't remember off the top of my head do it.

Was in Spain earlier this year and heard the lisp in Madrid and Barcelona both. There is a theory that the inbreeding of the royal family gave them their protruding lower jaws and caused them to speak with a lisp. And of course the subjects were supposed to speak as the King speaks so......

Always nice to beat City, but losing a defender hurts

Damn. Hopefully this will light a fire under AW to get a starting quality CB asap. Not gonna be good if we have to start Chambers and Holding against Liverpool.

My guess would be Nacho/Chambers with Gibbs on the left

I created a fantasy league for this year. It's creatively titled "TexAgs Classic League" and the league code to join is 1634813-400128.

The other league is a head-to-head titled "TexAgs Head-to-Head League" and the code to join is 1634813-400242.

If you haven't done this before, the website is [url=http://fantasy.premierleague.com/][/url][url=http://fantasy.premierleague.com/][/url]http://fantasy.premierleague.com. Go there, click "Leagues," "Join a League (private)," and enter the code.

Just happened to catch the Germany-South Korea Olympic match today. Gnabry was in full beast mode. 2 goals and dribbling around everyone. Definitely expecting him to get some match time when he returns to the club

The Daily Mail and other outlets reporting Arsenal will soon confirm the acquisition of Shokdran Mustafi, the Daily Mail saying its a 30 million pound move.

It does not seem to me like he would play in the opener against Liverpool.

Granby has been excellent. I think he's on 5 goals now at the Olympics.

Taksuke Asano, that new kid from Japan, scored their only goal in a win over Sweden. He's scored once in each of their matches.

I'll take a German national team CB any day (as long as he's faster than me, unlike the BFG)
