Players who dont look like footbalers.

Steve Fulton

Not a player but a manager - Gareth Ainsworth.

Nade or Zeefuik for them, Harper for us.

I raise you Tom English

Steve McManaman.

From a previous era, two all-time greats:

Ferenc Puskás, his size and rotund shape belied his greatness. eight-four goals in eight-five international matches.

Garrincha, born disabled with a curved spine. His left leg was 6cms shorter than his right one. His right leg bent outwards while his left leg bent inwards.

Another shout for John Robertson of Forest who was a pretty unlikely looking footballer but nevertheless a complete magician on the ball. I once remember Clough referring to him as 'our corpulent outside-left'. :greengrin

Robbo is still a favourite of my forest supporting mate, says he was the fastest player over one yard he's ever seen. Played with his head[emoji16]

He was the quickest betweeen his ears, that's for sure!

They've just erected a statue for him in Viewpark, greatly deserved.

Shirley that's not a bad thing as many football players' musical taste is in their erse!

For Shankland and Griffiths the phrase "sniper's dream" comes to mind - although to be fair, both have been seriously potent marksmen in their own right.

If you asked me what they both look like though - I would say the ******* offspring of a Mekon out of Dan Dare (pictorial evidence attached ......

Sir Albert Kidd. Looked like one half of a poor comedy duo. Made me laugh more than any comedian though, still does.

that’s a belter ;)

Peter Beardsley had a great career despite being part time, job sharing his football talents and being the bell ringer at Notre Dame.

Gareth Southgate, looks like a bank(spell check)manager.

One looks like a thumb the other looks like a tin of ham with ears.

Jackson Irvine
Harry McKirdy

Crunchie. My favourite ever Hibs player, but never felt he looked like he could do what he did on a pitch.
