You've Been Pronouncing Sean Dyche's Name Wrong This Entire Time

Just weeks before the start of the European Championships in 2016, UEFA kindly provided us with a handy guide for those who aren't very good at pronouncing names.

With the likes of Polish midfielder Krzysztof Mączynsk, Turkey defender Sener Ozbayrak and Sweden winger Emil Forsberg, which is apparently pronounced 'Fosh-berry', plenty of commentators spluttered their words on the odd occasion.

We helped you Impress your mates in the pub with this impressive pronunciation guide, with some of the hardest names in football being included in the list.

But even the simplest names can be deceiving.
