He's obviously the bellend that does the highlight Commentary too... becomes Spanish whenever he says a Spanish name.
Tool.
I didn't hear, although I do believe I know the one you are referring to from the team's site...and not to be rude, but what's wrong with pronouncing someone's name as it is intended to sound?
i.e. "hey-suess" vs. "jeez-us"

He makes a really bad job of it. He is as convincing as that bloke who tried to speak French on 'Allo Allo'

It was very grim first half. We were poor at the back but there was no central midfield at all. In the second half we were set up better but the first half was worrying.

I thought it might be helpful to hear the players pronounce their own names. Here is Jason Denayer's interview first:

Here is Edin Džeko (Bosnian pronunciation: [ˈedin ˈd͡ʒeko]
... a player who may never be appreciated enough by City management, or fans! If he must leave, the least we can do is finally pronounce his name correctly!

I can't work out what our midfield was and did we play more 4.3.3 in the first half or 4.4.2? Seems to be 4.3.3 with Bony,Sterling and Siilva and then the middle 3 were Lopes,Evans and Navas or am I way off beam?
Add to that it sounds like Vinnie had a mare plus the full backs were their usual defensive misfits.Did Denayer really come on at half time and make us look better?

It really is difficult to say what our formation was at the start. My best guess is 4-2-4. Evans played in central midfield alone, but i suspect Nasri was detailed to play alongside him. The defence was poor but there was no protection from midfield with no one tracking back. The defenders were all culpable but they were heavily outnumbered at times. Denayer did come on at half time for Vinnie and we were much better, but there was a bank of 4 midfielders in front of them in the 2nd half, which helped. The massive number of subs in the 2nd half broke the game up too. Fernando is out of the Baggies game so I don't know who will play in central midfield with Yaya.

Didn't see the game, but MEN reported that we started with 433.

Yes, we can call him Jason Denayer... the Denier of goals!
... and Edin Džeko gets a big check-o for scoring more goals...assisted by Hey, Seuss Navas!

Watched the "highlights" on the MCFC website...
What was going on with some of those goals...sheesh.
I was thinking that one was offside, which Mangala was calling for....but maybe he should have tried to play it more so then.
But the last one maybe, the one before...what was Kompany doing? He seemed to be looking at the ball, while his man was going to his right around him. Awful to watch.
Sterling, Silva and Nacho all looked good in the clips.
We may have to win 5-3 against West Brom. Ugh.
Vinnie is not going to be benched for the first match. But it is worrying.
