Not many would have predicted Bizot getting more minutes than Sancho, Guessand and Elliott combined.

(I cannot and WILL NOT check if this is actually accurate).

Something very gravelly almost dirty old manish about this commentator!
His pronunciation of Camera and Dinya is boiling my piss. It's Kamara and Dean you absolute fucking tit.

His pronunciation is pretty much correct. He maybe overdoes the "e" on the end of Digne just very slightly, but that's typical of a southern French accent.
When he signed from Everton they did a piece with him at Bodymoor Heath and asked him to clear up the debate about the pronunciation of his name. In perfect English he said:  it's simple "Luca Dean" as in Dean Smith.

Yep, that's how he always says it - https://youtu.be/ScNovNeQUU4?si=tRJ0wq6of3JIQF4i&t=300
No it's not. In that video, you can clearly hear the "ign" sound and the final "e".

"Dean" is an anglicised pronunciation of his name, but it's not how the French pronounce, or Digne himself!

Fuck, flashbacks to that time Olsen came on at HT and we conceded 4 was it?

3. We were already losing 1-0 at half time. Bizot conceded three at VP this season though including giving away a penalty.

Need to get Malen on, not that bothered if it's Watkins or Sancho that go off, neither offering much.

Big Emi off?

Probably wouldn’t sub a striker who has scored lots of late.

English people often exaggerate the sounds in a French word in an attempt to sound correct when they're not
