“I like the tag of being the strongest player in football so I put a little message in to see if I was still going to be the strongest when the new game comes out," he said. "They told me the chances of me still being the strongest are very good.

"But if I am not the strongest, I will call out whoever is the strongest out for a bench-press challenge!”

What a guy. Although he's probably playing the wrong "Football".

The guy is bloody huge though. Never watched him play though. Is it an obvious case of him being an utter brick shithouse on the pitch, where nobody can barge him, but he runs slower than Tom Huddlestone in treacle?

Is being the strongest footballer like being the quickest sumo?

Sums up English football, especially at that level, that this lummox is a professional footballer.

And Greg Dyke wants our youngsters to go up against him every week, cor they'll learn a lot heading the ball away.

Those big old 100 m and rugby people are well slow aswell....

He's well past it now...he was never super quick during his time at the cobblers and has got slower over the past few seasons. He is very strong but also conceded quite few free kicks because he used his size to knock players off the ball.

Despite his size though...the guy can break dance pretty well.

He tried to coin the phrase 'beast mode' when the Cobblers went to Wembley a couple of years ago but unfortunately Beast Mode was switched off and the cobblers were shit.

Wimbledon v Liverpool: Adebayo Akinfenwa calls it biggest game
FA Cup third round: AFC Wimbledon v Liverpool

Venue: Kingsmeadow. Date: Monday, 5 January, 19:55 GMT

Coverage: Live on BBC One, BBC Radio 5 live, BBC local radio, and live text commentary on the BBC Sport website.

AFC Wimbledon's FA Cup third-round tie at home to Liverpool on Monday is bigger than the Champions League final, Dons striker Adebayo Akinfenwa says.

The hosts will be playing in the third round for the first time since their rebirth in 2002, and lifelong Liverpool fan Akinfenwa is particularly excited.

"It's the biggest game, there is no bigger," the 32-year-old said.

"I am a Liverpool supporter so even if I played in the Champions League final, this would be the biggest game."

Saw the soccer am year highlights when he was competing with razor ruddock, which was quite funny.

Made me realise what a big fucker he is too lol, how he plays centre forward I do not know.

 

[Gassin's finest]

Great shift put in by him last night. Did you see when he took his top off at the end though? Not much flab under that, guy is fucking built!

 

[michaelden]

He has good reactions and awareness but DAMN that dude has a lot of mass to shift, no wonder he isn't fast!

was 93 but think its changed. If you play for Real, Barca etc your stats are inflated by 5 or so
