No longer a Barça lounger: Sergiño Dest at PSV (olf FC Barcelona)

Discussion in 'Yanks Abroad' started by ChuckMe92, Oct 24, 2016.

  1. If you use word, you can put all those names with their specific characters in the spelling control library, so it's easy to copy paste it or type the post in word first.
    Just a practical hint.

    He is listed on the USSoccer USMNT page showing the roster for the U20 WC as "Sergino." Of course, the person who prepared that list may have not known or cared how to create an "n" with a tilde above it, as in "ñ".

    On his Instagram page, he uses the tilde. I think it's up to him how to spell his own name.

    On Instagram, Dest decides. On BigSoccer, we decide. Dest should get his tilde now, certainly, but if he ever crosses us, ñ beware.

    When searching online, characters are stripped. That is, all diacritics are ignored, so ñ, ņ, ṅ, ǹ, №, etc. are all treated as n.

    My point was about the BS search function. That's why most of the thread titles are "accentless." The match has to be exact for it to work.

    Pls save all threats until he is cap-tied to the USMNT. Then, we can fire away.....
     
  9. Surinam lies in Latin America, so it figures latin names, especially Portuguese sounding ones are common.

  13. That's the result of people with that origin being stimulated after the abolishment of slavery to migrate to Surinam. They have those names. Surinam people from African descend have either Dutch, Portuguese, American surnames or a fusion of those.

    That was the lineup against PAOK first leg. They're going with the same lineup as the Emmen match. Dolberg won't be starting an important match again for a while.

    Onana; Mazrouai, Veltman, Martinez, Tagliafico; Blind, Marin; Neres, van de Beek, Ziyech; Tadic

    Bench: Varela, Shuurs, Alvarez, Huntelaar, Promes, Dest, de Wit

    Marin was not good. Hasn't gotten used to the speed of Ajax yet. The best way for Dest to get playing time is for that to continue and Ajax to be forced to play Mazrouai in the MF.

    Some pretty deft first touch passing a huge recovery defensively for Ajax to prevent a goal. Was on a couple islands but slowed down the attack and then cleared.

    There just gave the ball away on a bad first touch and unsuccessful take on attempt off the dribble. Has to foul to stop break.

    I, a 40 year old man with multiple higher educational degrees and reads 2+ major news sources a day, almost called you out for this because I was really sure that Surinam was in South East Asia.

    That name will forever fool me
