Even British journalists can't spell Szoboszlai's name correctly. Not to connect the two but we really shouldn't be surprised.
can they spell any name correctly that sounds somehow foreign? (exceptions confirm the rule) sorry this is no discreditation but lived practice. Not even the name 'Ho' (they say Hou) British can spell correctly but at least with 'Kim' they do. Well Germans on the other side can't generally spell 'the' correctly they often say 'se' which sounds funny and you know immediately where this person come from. It was very helpful to know it on travels so you only need to ask 'where do you come from Germany?' In Austria plenty of people because of our cultural connextion probably I think we often spell correctly words from Eastern EU countries at least from people with better education. In Austrian TV it used to be normal one time a week to teach Russian which I followed with pleasure. I am sorry that it disappeared already long time ago.
Well, Szoboszlai (without googling now!) when I remember well - Sz in Hungarian pronunciation is like the normal s in German but rather a sharp s not like the English one which is more a buzzing sound but there is the sharp one as well. Unlike Sz in Polish it's like sh like in Tomaszewski the great Polish goalkeeper in the 70's who gave England the rest at Wembley in a qualifier so Poland qualified to WC 1974 and then played a brilliant WC. (I lernt busy some Polish from a dictionary when I was young because I wanted to spell correctly all their good players names at the school yard) I hope I did not blame myself now, as I said no doublcheck from myside in this matter.

Ir includes the PO draw, that's why Ukraine gained so much, you should reduce the first column for the GS draw only.

Guardiola pronounced Szoboszlai like this: Sbolosie. He cannot be so stupid, arrogance.

Even Salzburg's official English twitter channel made fun of Guardiola's pronunciation. 😅

Ye but they think they are still the same club after changing their name, colours and initially saying they aren't the same team they bought so who's the stupid one

Unbelievable luck for playoff path B winner. The third easiest schedule in the whole tournament, and all that from Pot 4!

I like the complete lack of pressure on Scotland tbh. Just go there and enjoy it (and hopefully make Germany, Hungary and Swiss enjoyed it less in the process).

Scotland will beat Germany in the opening game. I predict Germany will go out in the groups. I hope your team underestimate us the way you have in these predictions

You went the easy route by accusing me of underestimating Scotland.

Scotland are fairly rated by me. I have them right now down as 15th best team in UEFA on current form.

If you have Twitter here is my UEFA Ranking:

Putting Scotland group stage fodder is the result of a mix of several factors I went through in my thought process

I don't rule out an appearance for Scotland in the round of 16 but that's about it. I can't imagine them going any farther than that.
