That’s just a nickname - a brand
How is that any different from CR7 for example?
Is Antoine Griezmann the most cringeworthy footballer?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

Lingard
Are you saying Pogba and lingard aren’t professionals once they step on the pitch?
Absolute nonsense
Pogba isn’t really cringeworthy. He’s genuinely cool and charismatic so can get away with his eccentricities. Griezmann’s like watching Richard Madeley doing Ali G only without the intentional irony.
And here’s me thinking it’s been established that Pogba, after the circus that was Jose, is actually a wonderful footballer and our best player. Bizarre thing to say
I think Lingard's nickname reminds me of gaming when I was a kid, I've met a lot of player with the dumb nickname like this.
No mention of Neymar?
That was a Nike slogan in 2007/2008
I think it's cool Milner doesnt drink.
Theres no wind up here. That would be Ramos or Busquets. Someone being a cnut. He's just plain cringe instead.I actually love how he winds up people while being absolutely harmless.
I think he's funny when not being inadvertently
Vomit-inducing. That takes the biscuit. I've no doubt he believes it.
Great player but he thinks he’s far better than he is. That decision video is embarrassing.
As for the celebrations, he needs to grow up. It’s cringey when a child does it, he’s nearly 30.

Why do we hate on players that like to express themselves and have a little fun? I'd say the only cringe-worthy thing is threads like this. Football has changed, the times have changed, people have changed, it's not that big of a deal.
I had forgotten about that Uruguay thing. The answer is yes, he is.
So either you haven't been to many United games this season or you have only been a United fan since OGS became manager or you suffer with some form of memory loss.
Because Pogba clearly wasn't acting like a professional footballer when Mourinho was in charge. Now I'm glad Mourinho was sacked but its pathetic to pretend that it's all good with Pogba and his attitude towards the club and contempt towards the fans who turned up week in week out to watch him sulk.
Di Maria didn't want to be at United but we threw stupid money at Real and they pushed him our way.. He put in half hearted performances but our fans pretended he was great or he was being mismanaged, anything other than face the truth. After he left the club everyone suddenly accepts he was an embarrassment and we let him know it when we played PSG.
The same happened with Pogba. Firstly he chose to leave United. Then he didn't want to come back and waited for Real or Barca but again we vastly overpaid so he was forced to come here and almost 3 seasons in he has shown nothing but contempt for the club and fans. Yet a number a number of United fans can't accept this and pretend that he's a great player for us. This attitude from the fans will last until he gets his move to Real, PSG or wherever and then the rhetoric will he how Pogba was poison, didn't care about the club and was in professional. I'm just 2 years ahead of you, you'll be saying it once hes no longer our player.

Why do you care how he celebrates?
I like him. Seems like he's enjoying life. Miserable sods put me off.
Obviously he is cringy at times though.

Milner is usually used as the epitome of a boring footballer, in terms of his personality. There are others, he’s just the first one that comes to mind. I don’t dislike him and think that he’s been quite a useful player over the course of his career.
Ibra is a character, certainly, but so is Griezmann.
I love how annoyed people get by his celebrations and that sort of thing. All the stiff upper lip people, stuck in thirty years ago, who think that that sort of thing is childish or has no place in football, they’re hilarious. This thread is a goldmine.
Rabiot cringeworthies me far more than Griezmann, I'm a bit surprised nobody mentioned him.

Agreed, seems like he's having a good time being a professional footballer. Nothing to hate.
You can dance how you want if you score goals like that!
Nah, not really. It’s just that Griezmann is an incredibly naff guy and can’t pull it off.
The amount of straight men that want Ronaldo to be gay never ceases to amaze me
I’m not sure if it’s some complex or just complete ignorance regarding surrogacy...
I'll take cringeworthy footballers for 500!
Who is, Neymar.
I am correct.

Come on mate Cristiano doesn't need your valiant defending of him in every post of the caf. Wonder what you do on social media where there are thousands of comments like this.The amount of straight men that want Ronaldo to be gay never ceases to amaze me
I’m not sure if it’s some complex or just complete ignorance regarding surrogacy...
The only cringeworthy thing about Griezmann is the fact so many people get pissed off by it
I don’t think that he’s is gay. The Mayorga case makes that quite clear.The amount of straight men that want Ronaldo to be gay never ceases to amaze me
I’m not sure if it’s some complex or just complete ignorance regarding surrogacy...
His relationship with Georgina Rodríguez is an obvious sham though. They have zero chemistry and she always looks miserable. The Katy Holmes vibes are strong.
The situation with his kids having no contact with their mother is obviously massively weird too.
Defending him? I’m not defending him from anything, being gay isn’t a bad thing as far as I’m aware.
I just find it incredibly funny how many straight men want him to be gay with absolutely nothing pointing towards it
I'd want him to be gay because it would be awesome for the gay community and other sexual minorities if someone like him one day came out. That's a compliment on him.The amount of straight men that want Ronaldo to be gay never ceases to amaze me
I’m not sure if it’s some complex or just complete ignorance regarding surrogacy...
Ronaldo is definitely more cringeworthy than Messi!
Look I can understand your view on Pogba
I just think that life under Mourinho was toxic for him as he was always singled out
Why are you saying lingard isn’t professional?
Basic observational skills.
How in the world would you possibly know that?
Certainly more than Eusebio. Don't know about Muller. We need input from posters knowledgeable of the past greats.
Messi was never that cringeworthy but he did get some very cringeworthy tattoos a few years ago.

Exactly, so what if he's gay? And you are defending his sexuality here.
You defend him without realising it, and even when there's nothing to defend. It's creepy behaviour
