Which footballer are you most like?

[chicago_shearer]

Ali Dia

[Ameritoon]

Oba. Literally, carbon copy...minus the hair.

[Legacy]

Iniesta would probably some me up quite well in the way that I play although I have no weight behind me which leads to being useless in physical battles, I tend to play out wide but not really as a winger more of a wide striker, usually one of the quickest on the pitch, people have commentated that the ball sticks to my foot at times when I dribble and they try and tackle me, though my main problem is my finishing is abysmal at times, and as for my heading it's non existent, I miss quite a few headed efforts on goal. Think I've scored like 1 goal with my head ever.

[Guest firetotheworks]

Benayoun if he got nackered after 45 minutes.

[Village Idiot]

I was usually the tallest in the team (I'm quite tall for Spanish standards), and I couldn't head to save my life. Utterly clueless attacking the ball.

 

As an outfield player I guess I was a Heskey in his early days. Second striker, quite pacy despite being a big f***er, same footballing ability. But I'd get the ball and just go on a run stampeding over the defence, usually skying the shot at the end since my composure was awful. I had quite the shot but I couldn't control it to save my life (or the ones of low-flying birds)

 

But on any remotely serious match I was always the goalie. Prototypical Spanish goalie at that: great on one v ones, very good on reflex saves, awful on high crosses and prone to eat freekicks and mixing miracle saves with embarrassing clangers. Hence I am Víctor Valdés (but he's got better at crosses now). 

[Mowen]

Stephen Carr.

 

I nearly went for Carr but the more I thought about it the more similarities to Neville jr I found. Plus I've played midfield a lot more this year.

[Skirge]

Maradona.................... unfit and over weight

[Cronky]

There's no one really like me, and there's good reason for that!

 

When i was younger and fitter I was one of the fastest people at school over short distances, could hit a ball harder than a freight train, could score rockets from halfways, head with accuracy and cross with pin point accuracy while sticking in a good old tackle. What i lacked was control, technique, dribbling skills and staying fit, i could get injured 4 times in a match, no problem  It was probably down to the fact i couldn't dribble or beat a man, so i just ran through them, much easier. (I did get a little better) Oh half decent at freekicks and long range passing, a lot less accurate at short distances, which was always weird. Lastly, very one footed, left all the way.

 

 

 

 

Martins

 

Absolutely.

[nobby_solano]

Ali Dia

 

ditto for me, or a lazier fat fabrice pancrate with a shorter attention span.

i used to try and play like steve mcmanaman, didn't have much ball control but used to be fast enough to knock the ball around a player and catch it up on the other side.

long gone those days

[bowlingcrofty]

Jean-Alain Boumsong.

 

Fucking shite.

[steve_69]

Titus Bramble ie. totally inconsistent.

- Capable of solid defensive displays but also prone to the odd clanger.

- No individual skill what-so-ever,

- Good eye for a pass, good in the air and can hit the odd thunderbolt

- Big cock

[Weezertron]

Mike Myers.

[SEMTEX]

Darren Huckerby without the effort.

[Lenny]

Who can run fast, score goals, but do pretty much fuck all else?

[Shearergol]

Lampard. Goalscoring midfielder but better at penalties

[Shak]

Who can run fast, score goals, but do pretty much fuck all else?

 

Martins.

[Nobody]

Nicky Butt.

I used to be quite a decent holding midfielder, but now I'm too slow and not fit enough.

[Lenny]

Who can run fast, score goals, but do pretty much fuck all else?

 

Martins.

 

That'll be me then... except I don't take penalties with my wrong foot.... and (this season anyway) score them.

 

Probably about as short as him as well...

[DubblyDubblyDubbly]

Paul Magrath or Norman Whiteside 

I'd like to have said George but sadly I've not had any Miss Worlds nor his silky skills

[Ikon]

Kluivert

[LooneyToonArmy]

Kluivert

 

were you found guilty of manslaughter too?

[The Prophet]

Alan Smith. Plenty of effort, little ability, prone to fly into a reckless challange.

[Guest palnese]

Coloccini. Good on the ball, but weak as piss.

[MW]

Used to be Shearer back in the day, always tried playing like him and did it pretty effectively.

 

Nowadays im more like Viduka though, very immobile/poor physical condition, but the technique is all still there

[Guest firetotheworks]

I'm a bit like Shola in that I'm shit hot in training, and people think I'm going to be really good, and then I get caught out unless I'm in the box.
