[Football] There are not enough footballers with Funny Names anymore
I mean, i can recall but a few years ago when we had Argentinian defender Argelico Fuchs , and when he left for his new clubs , the headline was
"Fuchs off to Benfica"
There just arent enough funny names anymore. Why dont we have Bulgarian strikers called Penisov, or Slovakian defenders called Balscratchovic.
GD , find me some links to footballers with funny names. The kind of name that we here in the west find absoloutely ****ing hilarious, but people in Africa and Asia and Eastern Europe consider totally normal.

Re: [Football] There are not enough footballers with Funny Names anymore
Nwanko Kanu used to make me laugh, plus the various chants that went with it.
He's Big,
He's Black,
He's had a heart-attack Kanu, Kanu

Nobody has said Nicky Butt yet. I thought MM would have at least made one homoerotic reference by now
