Mutate a player

    This sort of idea may have been done in other genres but I think with footballers you could get good results.
    The idea is to mix 2 players attributes together so you form some sort of mutant player.
    For instance - Peter Donna. a mix of Peter Crouch's body and Maradonna' skill. It would be like trying to play against Mr. Fantastic from the fantastic 4.
    Or how about Craig Barton? a mix of Joey Barton and Craig Bellamy... probably the angriest player you could ever create.

    anyone else?

    how bout Wayne Chadwick - a wayne rooney and luke chadwick lovechild - quite possibly the ugliest player in history

    or Steve McClaren a mixture of Steve Staunton and steve McClaren - could there be a more clueless manager out there

    Cristiano Ronaldo & Kaka

    Cristiano Kaka! now there's a player


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,326 ✭✭✭Zapp Brannigan


    Allesandro Maldini

    The best defender in the world easily.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,399 ✭✭✭✭Thanx 4 The Fish


    Pele Maldini. One of the worlds best forwards who could do a decent job at the back too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    Zinedine Cruyff.

    Marco van Nistelrooy.

    Diego Platini.

    Dirk Rooney - Ugliest player ever

    Arsene Cox

    Say it fast


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    Roy Scholes

    would undoubtably be the best midfielder of all time.

    Not sure about that!

    Only thing that can't be doubted there is that they would be sent off more than any other player!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    I don't know, Scholes is just terible at tackling, it's not that he's particuarly vicous :) Most of his yellows come from mis-timing it rather than evil :) Personally I find his inability to tackle after all these years quite endearing :)

    Bugs me to hear people say that about Scholes. Yes he mistimes his tackles, but he's also a very dirty tackler.

    I'm by no means disputing that he's a great midfielder and will go down as a legend of the game, but some of his tackling is downright nasty.

    Kieran Bowyer - he'd kick the crap out of himself


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,372 ✭✭✭✭Mr Alan


    Wouldn't be overly sure about that either!

    Endearing/Hilarious - least we are NEARLY in agreement, the Roma game was hilarious, after he picked up his first yellow, i would've put my house on him being sent off!

    Alonso should've knocked his ginger ass out at last seasons game in Anfield!

    (god i sound like i'm turning into some sort of bad rapper!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,066 ✭✭✭BKtje


    Zinedine Kilbane ... need i say more ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,771 ✭✭✭jebuz

    ha! yeah he'd get by loads of players but then just run over the goal line with the ball and make a stupid face

    I think that honour would go to Vinnie Dicks :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,081 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    Bruce Fashanu

    You'd know the result before every match kicked off!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,825 ✭✭✭Mikeyt086


    Obafemi Senderos.

    The mix of a ninja and sasquach.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,658 ✭✭✭✭Peyton Manning


    I agree with Roy Scholes

    What are the attributes you look for in a central midfielder? Put Pirlo and Gattuso together and they come out tops in all of them. ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,081 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    Momo Le Tissier.

    Basically just normal le Tiss but with Sissoko's ridiculous fitness and energy!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 620 ✭✭✭NotWormBoy


    Titus Traore...

    Still, he'd probably get his game at Newcastle...

    We have a clear winner, but after that...

    Now that's an interesting combination. I'd go with Micheal Le Tisser for Essien energy as I've heard stories about how after matches he goes for 3 hour runs cause he's got too much energy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,372 ✭✭✭✭Mr Alan


    Essien probably goes around kicking kittens after games too to burn off some of that energy. Don't like him.

    Good player though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,879 ✭✭✭The_B_Man


    Pele Scheichel.

    Make a great save, then run the pitch and score!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,915 ✭✭✭✭astrofool


    Djibril Heskey, the fans in row z going to be taking powerdrives straight to the face. Also gets picked for England/France for some reason.
