Arne Slot is pronounced "Ahrnuh Slott." No "e" sound at the end of Arne and no "Sh" sound at the start of Slot.

Gary, Rio, and Micah spending the half time break of the England v Switzerland match slobbering over Phil "Fucking" Foden made me think they had watched a different game. He's been abysmal all tournament! I'm not saying you should be slagging him off, but perpetuating this fantasy/lie that he's been great is just embarrassing. The best number 10 in world football!?
