names of footballers that float through your head

Roy Wegerle
Ian Ormondroyd

BREK SHEA

Willy "Skietuh Willy!" van der Kerkhof

Juninho because my team would really need a player like him again and cos he was amaziiiiiiiiing

He seriously was!

God I miss those unique Juninho free kick goals from 35 yards or further from the goal <3

think i preferred paulista to pernambucano

the original juninho used to play football with kids in the streets of middlesbrough....

I miss those freekicks too and Lyon misses them even more.

Oui, je sais. I'd hate the thought of Lyon struggling through the fucking Europa League next season :(

Ugh plz no. Things are looking ok-ish right now tho, 2 pt lead on PSG with a game to play. I want them to be in the CL because I'm busy on thursday evenings! and for other obv reasons.

Heh, I hear you, I'm busy workwise on Thurs-nights as well

Emilio Izaguirre

I can't actually read his name anymore without singing it in my head. I actually woke up with that bloody song stuck on a loop in my brain.

I was randomly thinking about Stephane Bonnes yesterday. His name often pops into my head as a byword for underachiever. See also David Fernandez. Suspect I'll be randomly thinking of Marc Crosas in future.

Kind of curious why WBS was thinking of Brek Shea yesterday.

For me it's been Faryd Mondragon.

"commentators are required by FA guidelines to refer to Ruel Fox by his full name at all times"

These guys are the best. Current heroes include Leighton Baines, Charlie Adam, and (rather uninspiringly) Scott Parker.

(i know there was ray wallace too but still)

Jean Joel Perrier-Doumbe, whose winning goal in the 2007 Scottish Cup Final remains the only goal of his entire career.

For reasons best known to myself (which I cannot explain), I spent a very long time the other day - apropos of some reason I can't even remember - trying to remember Helder Postiga's name. And now that I have remembered it, it is stuck in my head.

I liked Joe Doumbe better than most of his replacements.

Mitchell Burgzorg (born 25 July 1987) is a Dutch footballer who currently plays for Bulgarian A PFG club Ludogorets Razgrad.

If Burgzorg can help the Dutch Lions defense at right back and help his rapping career at the same time, and that gets him to the Dutch Lions instead of Cambuur, more power to him.

Also I have a feeling looking at the first video that Mr. Burgzorg/Priester might be a marketing coo for the Dutch Lions if they can bring him on board.

Emerson

whose full name is apparently

Emerson Moisés Costa

I was trying to remember who it was that fucked off from Middlesbrough because his wife said it was cold and shite. I'd completely forgotten his wee spell at EBT-era Rangers.

i was thinking of the various brazilians who decamped to boro earlier tonight

used to have a fondness for them, gibson is the most admirable of the various small town made good types who used to predominate

It was Christian Karembeu with the Middlesbrough-averse wife. Unless there was a whole raft of them (quite plausible, I expect).

We got post-Boro Juninho for five minutes, his impact at Celtic was about the same as Emerson's at Rangers. As far as I know he's the only World Cup winner to ever play competitively for Celtic (Bobby Charlton played for us in a testimonial).
