The worst possible pronunciation for a Juve player must be “De Segly” for De Ceglie. Sigh.

Funny you should ask, ooBia, preview is up now. To be honest, I don’t know much about them so this is more about Juventus.

Yeah, that’s why Calisi, but given that it’s obviously Italian, I dunno, I guess I would think people would know that J is not in the Italian alphabet.

Zaki, that’s an error, I saw it too. Tiago, Legrottaglie, and De Ceglie are called up but it’s not on there.

hey, anyone knows why legro aren’t included ???

They think it starts with a J because of its pronunciation I would think, right? Same reason why people say Geo-vinco (like geology) instead of Gio (more like Jo).

Ciro = Seero, Iaquinta = Ia-keenta… alot of the announcing forces them to spanish pronunciation.

Maresca, I’d never been to your site before but that is definitely one of the best English-language Juve sites I’ve seen. Well done on the work, you have a new reader.

Nnahoj, I don’t disagree with what you’re saying but even people familiar with ethnic minorities can’t say a lot of foreign names for shit, particularly Italian. I have a friend who is Italian whos last name is Tantillo, everyone pronounces it Spanish-style, Tan-tee-yo. That’s a bit understandable. I’m not even going to get into my last name, though why does everyone think my last name starts with a J? (It starts with Gia)

Good news, but Bordeux match will be without Del Piero and Diego lets see what Giovinco is made of.
