Who is the Nic Cage of football?

[horsechoker]

Terrible yet brilliant

Average yet iconic

Strange yet endearing

A joke yet serious

Which footballer embodies the duality of Nic Cage?

 

[Annihilate Now!]

It was Neymar until endearing...

 

[Macern]

Thomas Müller

 

[JPRouve]

Prime Emile Heskey.

 

[Raw]

Fred

 

[Sparky Rhiwabon]

Glen Little used to fill this role in years gone by. Not sure if there’s a modern day equivalent, I think football has become more sterile

 

[Ramos]

Ricardo Quaresma

 

[Sparky Rhiwabon]

Peter Crouch was another in this realm

 

[Oranges038]

Lukaku

 

[ashneel]

Gary Neville

 

[ThinkTank@Cafe]

JJ Okocha

 

[RacingClub]

Dirk Kuyt

 

[Judge Red]

Pogba.

 

[BayernFan87]

As a german Bayern fan my first thought obviously was Thomas Müller.

For a player with his technical abilities and sometimes downright goofiness (on and off the pitch) his achievements and career are almost a miracle to me.

 

[kkj25]

Con air and Gone in 60 seconds are awesome movies...

Luis Suarez
Terrible yet brilliant
K*ob yet brilliant

 

[tenpoless]

Phil Jones?

 

[Reapersoul20]

Eder

 

[duffer]

David Luiz.

 

[DRJosh]

Marouane Fellaini

He was awkwardly brilliant and yet superficially talented

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Simeone

 

[Jaae]

Cristiano Ronaldo.

 

[DWelbz19]

Joel Matip, kind of. He looks quite funny when he's playing football - he's insanely gangly and does really weird acts and facial movements - but he's actually pretty good for Liverpool.

 

[Smithy89]

For United it's Nani.

Opps - Eboue.

 

[Rhyme Animal]

Terrible yet brilliant

Which footballer embodies the duality of Nic Cage?

Jimmy Bullard.

 

[Desert Eagle]

Suarez is a good shout.

 

[Red Star One]

Ballon d’Or winner Micheal Owen

 

[Vidyoyo]

Eder

I can't read his name without mentally adding 'scorer of goal' afterwards.

This is what the Caf does to you.

 

[groovyalbert]

Balotelli

 

[Red Star One]

I can't read his name without mentally adding 'scorer of goal' afterwards.

This is what the Caf does to you.

Same, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he has it in his passport actually

 

[Dumbstar]

Xhaka?

 

[Glorio]

Terrible yet brilliant

Average yet iconic

Strange yet endearing

A joke yet serious

Which footballer embodies the duality of Nic Cage?

Wonder if you're thinking about Bruno based on the timing of this.

 

[Vidyoyo]

It's Gareth Bale

 

[horsechoker]

Wonder if you're thinking about Bruno based on the timing of this.

He's definitely not a joke

 

[0le]

Bebe

 

[JohnnyLaw]

Mourinho?

 

[BerryBerryShrew]

Lee Trundle

 

[Van Piorsing]

John O'Shea.

 

[AltiUn]

Anelka.

 

[JPRouve]

John O'Shea.

Are you Figo?

 

[FrankDrebin]

Giraud.
