I've been trying to find a pronunciation for his surname, but all I can find is a commentator calling him Bar-anne-eh-chey-ah?

Journalist very confidently advised Dan Who on pronunciation here (you’ll have to listen and transcribe I forget) https://open.spotify.com/episode/2JC3Y9bq3w3DUKo0WcF5ue?si=IeMihkcrTAuhtCQ0TFRJVw&context=spotify%3Acollection%3Apodcasts%3Aepisodes&t=772 1874 podcast

That's almost exactly what I've phonetically spelled up there, except he's said it more like Bar-anna-chey-ah.

I'll assume anything resembling that is correct.

I think we could do something with that song that goes "oooooooohhhhhh no baby please don't go" using "enzooooooooo bar-anna-chey-ah"
Some commentators still call our French left back "Dinya" despite him telling everyone his surname is pronounced "Dean" so I don't hold out much hope for them pronouncing Barrenachea correctly or even caring enough to do any research.

Lucas is a fancy foreigner, so has to have a fancy sounding name. He can't sound like he's a bloke who works down the local garage.

Lucas Dean sounds really odd after hearing commentators try to 'french' it up for so long.

It's Luke Dean to me, and he runs a roofing and property maintenance firm employing 6 lads, a least one of whom is entirely unreliable.

He's like a whole new signing.

Looks like Tyrone has now got two equally sized legs - the drop off of muscle was incredible at the start of his rehab

They didn't coordinate their training gear, looks like there's a rift in the camp. :(

Enzo checking in

Nice to see they're learning the Vulcan nerve pinch in training. That will be handy for corners.

I think he looks a bit like my cousin Oliver, not sure if anyone else has said that, apologies if so.

Yes! The minute I saw him I thought he was the spitting image of Oliver.

Muscle loss is to be expected with an ACL injury. They have the best Physios and Medical staff to help with rehab....

Yeah, I remember when I ruptured my hamstring and was on crutches for a 3 months or so. My left leg was <10% of my right leg when I got back to rehab and went on the Kin Com machine 🤣
