Nooniez, Wally Eggli... 21:41 - Apr 14 with 345 viewsZx1988

Can the Sky commentators actually bother to learn the pronunciation of the players' names?

It's really not that difficult, and it's a pretty integral part of their jobs.

Not the first thing I'd consider moaning about tonight.

True, it's just like nails on a blackboard on the commentary.

It's a bugbear of mine - they're paid a decent sum of money to watch football and say people's names. It feels as if saying them correctly is a fairly crucial part of the job description.

With the ñ in Nuñez, that is actually a better pronunciation than most of our fans make, when singing his name.

Wally Eggli, yes. I've heard plenty of commentators call him Edgily this season, too.
