Best Named Players

Nicola Ventola

I give you Segar B'stard (insert an a), a nineteenth century player for Leyton Orient. He then became a referee, which was very apt considering his surname.

Also drawn to Lieutenant Colonel Pelham Von Donot. Played for the Royal Engineers in two cup finals, and also represented England. Was the godfather to P.G.Wodehouse, hence the 'P', and won the Khedive Star following the Battle of the Nile. Can't see Tom Davies following in his tradition.

 

[maccavennie]

Has Danny Shittu been mentioned yet? Always made me chuckle

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

I always thought Garrincha was a cool name

 

[summerisle]

Two names from Everton's past : Alec D'ick (1888), and Albert Flewitt who played on the wing (1895).

 

[Willie Thorne]

Jan Vennegor of Hessalink...always thought of a medieval king when I heard that.

 

[Khalekan]

Neil Pointin.

Whom we renamed Dissa.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Surprised we all forgot Paul Dickov ?

Dean Windass

Willy Sugarnipples always make me laugh

 

[Blue 1]

As you've got Minge and Kuntz in the team, you could put Potuguese goalkeeper Quim between the sticks instead of Neto.

It would also be a shame to leave out the God of pornography, Bongo Christ. He's a striker, so change to 4-3-3 and put him in with Minge and Kuntz.

Silas Wamangituka has the best sounding surname in terms of commentary

“WAAA MAN GI TOOOOOOOKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

Sounds absolutely boss when a commentator does it right
