I remember that fun fact from 6-7 years ago - that every player in the P.L whose name started with SCH had all played for United one way or another.....Schlupp was on trial and played one game for the reserves as I recall
Schmidfield :drool:

It has to be older than that due to Schürrle.

Hojlund, Hjulmand, Hojberg, Hojer, Hojholt, Hojgaard, O.Hojlund. Let's just confuse the opposition with players all basically named the same.
It doesn't even make any sense. "Høj" means "high". This in a country where there is no such thing - the highest point in Denmark stands about 170m above sea level.

To be fair, it also means "hill" or "mound", which is probably what all these names refer to.

Not if you've been watching Vikings
Even at the fictional level (which is what the Scandinavian geography of "Vikings" firmly and stupidly is), I think that's meant to be in SW Sweden? Not that there's really fjords and mountains there either.
