A standard 'e' at the end of a French word is normally unvoiced but the 'é' ('e' acute) is pronounced 'ay'. So Sané is pronounced 'Sanay' the same as paté is prounced 'patay'
Yes. It's a French name, so if you want to pronounce it properly treat it as French.

Well, yes, except – sorry to be pedantic – but strictly speaking what laserblue has transcribed would inevitably be pronounced as a diphthong. Whereas the French é is a monophthong. Not the same sound, I'm afraid. Not that anyone'll give a toss at the Etihad if we get him.

I thought we made it pretty clear a few weeks ago that we don't care about all this foreign shite. He's in England and if he wants to stay here he will bloody well integrate. He can have Zaba's spot in the chippy queue and his name will be Sane as in Kane or Dane or Maine.

Disgrace that a foreign type is getting a job that should have gone to Aaron Lennon or Andros Townsend in the first place
 
My theory, Sane will replace Bony, and be used as a striker , Navas will go to Seville and Mahrez will replace him on the wing.

Meat pie, sausage roll, come on Sane give us a goal!
 
I can't see us buying Mahrez, but the other things aren't completely out of the question.

Think my mind went on a tangent mate haha. Thought process was most will expect Sane on the wings but I think he will be a 'converted striker' and replace Bony who I think will leave. Then the constant Navas stories back to Seville and our recent links to Mahrez kinda all clicked in my tiny mind lol.

It would make more sense to have Sané start on the right *and* be the 3rd choice striker wouldn't it?

Aguero and Iheanacho are injured, put Sané up front, Sterling on the right.

No need to go and buy another player for the couple of times a season we might need a third striker.

Maybe dom, like I said it was only a theory and nothing to back it up pal.

Going off that post, I assume you call if a muffin? ;-)
 
In Germany they talk about that Sane is not going alone but is taking his brother Sidi (born 1992) out of the Schalker boarding school and taking him with him.
