On English broadcast pretty much every player whose name isn't made English in mind. For example Jamppi and people are even writing it wrong all the time. It has 2 P's it isn't Jampi.

I'm not into linguistics so I don't know how to explain it sorry. Its just different compared to English obviously. As I said just go to Google Translator and select finnish and click audio. Its like Jamp pi instead of jam pi and J sounds bit different
