Emperors New Clothes

[Don Corleone]

Tomasz Frankowski

 

[StaffordWolf]

João Pedro, 10 of his 18 goals this season are penalties.

 

[Supadavewolf]

Hirohito.

Nice suit...

 

[WolvesAndCows]

Enzo Fernandez

 

[stever]

Naby Keita

Absolutely awful player

 

[TF2Wolf]

Paul Blades

 

[Scallywolf]

Any player Chelsea have bought in the last 12 months!

 

[Howlin’ Wolf]

Alex Iwobi

 

[loppers86]

Alex Iwobi

his goals against us are real enough

 

[Leominster_Wolf]

He has a Jazzy golf club bag and driver cover too

 

[Adrian_Monk]

Denes Rosa

Broja

 

[clivewolves]

As another poster said, Pochettino. He's a decent manager, just not as good as he is made out by some in the media.

 

[MickHolmesFanClub]

Bryan Robson

 

[Sephiroth]

James Rodriguez

 

[Bill McCai]

Bruno Lage

 

[Bankswolf The Third]

Darwin Nunez

 

[topcat99]

Ryan Sessegnon. Since he turned 20.

 

[Ukraine Wolf]

James Rodriguez..... One world cup goal and he mugged off Real Madrid.

 

[The Weasel]

Glen Hoddle...(manager not player)

 

[Oliwolf44]

At the time of the hype i would say Dominic Iorfa. Everyone was saying how he could run like lightning and he would be worth a load of money soon. Yet the player i was watching couldnt kick the ball properly and his crossing was some of the worst ive seen from a fullback

And then surely Fabio Silva, HE WILL BE WORTH £100MILLION SOON, OUR WONDERKID. Yet it was hilarious that he looked like a tortoise when chasing after..... Ben Godfrey?!?!

 

[Golden Arrow]

What a mad thread. I'm surprised somebody hasn't mentioned Harry Kane !
Are these names of footballing folk we don't rate or don't like, for whatever reason.

 

[Zico]

Kevin Ashley

 

[Mugwump]

Freddy Eastwood.

 

[Adrian_Monk]

Paul Blades

This is probably the closest suggestion to the essence of the story.

Prime Maldini on loan, paid around £300k IIRC to make it permanent and got scammed after he turned out to be, well, nothing like what we thought he was going to be

 

[glorybox]

Martinelli

 

[SuperGran]

Aston Villa

 

[Clipboard]

Cole Palmer

 

[WolfLing]

Steven Gerrard

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

John Stones till he moved to midfield

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Steven Gerrard

Presume this is as a manager not as a player.

Cole Palmer

Presume this is not as a player either!

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Burnside, (not Peter Knowles)

 

[WolfLing]

Presume this is as a manager not as a player.

Presume this is not as a player either!

Yes, as a manager.

Although could be as a player too based on his international career for England's massively underachieving 'Golden Generation'.

 

[Wednesbury Wolf]

Rashford.

 

[Berlin Wolf]

Derek Jefferson

 

[Kebab Warrior]

England’s Golden Generation

 

[Alex Rae The Substitute]

He has a Jazzy golf club bag and driver cover too

****y. Plays his driver for every shot by the looks of it.

O'Hara. Great on loan, disaster when signed.

 

[northnorfolkwolf]

Have the feeling some on here are not quite clear on what the saying means.

I haven't a clue what this thread is about? Is it an age thing?
