That's the way its usually said but Jordan has said he pronounces it differently. So commentators will eventually get it.

I still chuckle at least seasons "Dick-a-Choi" suddenly becoming "De-cash-we" when they realised their mistake.



Because his father was a fan of Bond. Making it James...not Hamez.

It was dubbed in South America
"Dee name eez Bond, Hamez Bond."

Hamez is the correct phonetic spelling of the Spanish name James.

Correct. However if you are named after James Bond by your father, as is the case with Rodriguez, than it's not in fact Hamez. Its James.

Knowing is half the battle.

The yanks chanting is comical, it just sounds wrong....

Coates is another. His da is English and it would be 'Coats', as in get your coat, not Co-ah-tez as it is pronounced.

Their World Cup chants were absolutely comical, "I believe that we will win".
I'm sure they spent all night coming up with that. :pac:

Wonder would they say that about us lot anytime at a football game up and down the country when we break out into a chorus of "who are ya, who are ya?!" in our finest English accent!:D

Markovic is actually pronounced Morrissey. Dad was a massive Smiths fan

Coates should have bicycle kicked that. He should bicycle kick EVERYTHING.

I love how Wenger pronounces Callum Chambers, heard it from him today:

"Sham-bears"

Classy.

Dirk Kuyt was a commentator pronunciation that always irritated me, very rarely correct

You didn't even spell it right. Dirk Kuijt.

I think this is a ploy to sneak on an extra man

Don't forget Dzeko. He was "zeko" for ages before they moved on to "Jecko!"



Im just not ignorant. If my second name is Smith and I want to pronounce it "symth" I can, but people are going to get it wrong everywhere I go. If Jordan pronounces his name differently, hey its his name. Go nuts. But commentators will get it wrong.

Anyway, the only people seemingly upset about it are Liverpool fans. the man himself doesn't seem to care.

I still don't see why you're getting annoyed about the pronunciation of Ibe when it's the same as vibe or scribe.

Also I'd say you must hate Tim Cahill.

He's from Tuam.
"Fair boxing boss".

My bad, I didn't realise he pronounced his name James..

Rodgers trolling the assistant ref here...

Johnson just dribbled AND completed a pass after! :eek:

Goed gedaan!

How people made "Coit" out of his name was beyond me.

Even by pre season standards this a poor game, but I still won't go to bed.

mada999

Gerrard does seem to really slow down the play and then hit a long cross field ball, need a bit more urgency from him.. (although he's prob just in pre-season mode)

He's in full quarter back mode...

Ouch!

DDC1990

Apparently Suso was on Loan at Al-Maria.. must be one of those Qatari clubs.

jenno86

Can's shoulder to shoulder with Balotelli -

stampydmonkey

Just looking at ballotelli..so disinterested. Its a friendly which I get but fcuk me show some interest

googled eyes

Emre Can likes knocking the sh!t out of people.

You can just tell he's gonna be a fan favourite

jenno86

Lovely by Suso!

martyos121

Lovely goal from Suso. Don't loan him out again Rodgers!

Osmosis Jones

Tidy finish

whatawaster

Great goal Suso

DDC1990

Susoooooo!

Worth staying up fr that finish.

stampydmonkey

Lovely goal. Well happy for him

mada999

Lovely pass by the count and a sweet strike into the corner by Suso... nice

eagle eye

Nice finish from Suso, he has looked impressive. He looks like he could be ready and he is still so young.

klose

It was an anti coutinho shot almost, lovely finish suso

whatawaster

There might be room for Suso or Ibe in our squad but not both. Send one on loan

jenno86

No way do I want Ballotelli anywhere near Liverpool. The guy is a waster.

stampydmonkey

You shoot I save..my name is sImon

martyos121

Top save. He may not fill you with confidence with the ball at his feet, but Mignolet is a world class shot stopper.

mada999

didnt even break a sweat in that game... easy..

woodyg

tidy goal that.
it's going to be interesting with Suso to see if he stays and gets some games.
he's still young but you just get the feeling with him that he needs to be given the chance this season or he will move on.

Emre Can man , Emre Can ❤️

He didn't look fit and he didn't seem to be trying to impress Rodgers anyway.

I would keep well away from him we don't needed any more headers on the squad after Suarez leaving.

klose

Fairly easy win that, some good performances to take forward and more food for thought for rodgers.

Kerrigooney

Trevor Francis just said "a front foot volley". Er.....ok.

I think he's married.

Great goal by Suso, worthless enough match but tidy finish there

Pilsbury Doughboy

What's the news on Sturridge and Markovic anyone?
