      Every premier league and EFL player does this for Sky Sports. Richard osman talked about it years ago on The Rest Is Entertainment. At the start of each season every single player does this so the commentators know how to pronounce the names. Makes perfect sense

    2. As my only exposure to Norwegian was through Duo Lingo, I know find that every Norwegian person speaking Norwegian sounds exactly like the Duo Lingo voice.

      Oscar Bobb – went and searched and his mom is a norwegian actres Turid Gunnes and his father is Gambian-Norwegian Abdou Bobb. 

      Guy signed with Man city when he was 16 but it was after a debacle with Porto trying to sign him in/brought him to Portugal, and currently right now he is with Fulham. He broke his leg last year so while he’s had a comeback already, I hope he does a good showing here 

    4. Ok, I’m pretty confident on my pronunciation of two of these, I guess I’ll have to keep working on the rest

    5. I feel like one of these people did not need to be included in the video. We can clearly all pronounce  Andreas Schjelderup right?

    6. The England team one of these really made me laugh when Harry Kane, bless him, shouts his name like Matt Damon in Team America

      Some if these I can’t pronounce even with the guy pronouncing it next to me

    8. My favourite Norwegian sportsperson will still be Casper Ruud because he has a name with the easiest pronunciation among many other plausible reasons.

      I’m afraid I’m more confused how to pronounce their names AFTER watching the video 🤭

      They have a guy named Asgard? I guess Amon Amarth should do a song about that guy lol
