Caused no offence mate. Just like to make sure that the truth is highlighted, especially to the very many posters on here who aren't aware of the reality. The last thing I want is for other posters/readers here to associate the name Alli with chemical weapons (in the same that the so many other Muslim names are associated with terrorism, war, forced marriages etc)

Dude, the term 'Chemical Ali' was in reference to a specific person and the existence and name of that specific person is part of the zeitgeist, as is quite clearly demonstrated by the fact that someone drew the conclusion in line with the way I came up with the name.

You know my views on things of this nature and have made them very clear. This is a little bit of fun we're having and isn't the place for a political discussion.

I respect your views, and share them, but I would ask whether this is the right place for them. If you want to discuss it more, please do feel free to share them with me or anyone else, but either privately or in an appropriate place - I'd rather we have the chance to blow off some of the tension before today's match without it becoming too involved. Fair?

Perfectly acceptable : regular. Reguilon
Twoo: bird sound :parrot?
Swing and a miss on both, I'm afraid me old wheelbarrow. Just as a further hint: Parrot isn't on the list. (Because the OS lists him in the U23s and not in the First Team).

You've gone right off the boil, dude. An unexpected zero on all of those. I'd be interested to know what your thinking was on those....?

Like those.

Moura isn't the Lion, no. Here's a teeny clue: there's a post by me in which I come up with some nicknames for some of our players. The answer to who the Lion is is in there.

I realise that that's possibly the most bastardy clue in the history of the universe, but I'm being evil.

Peanut Butter = Lo Celso cause he plays smoothly but has a bit of bite (crunchy) to him.

Cheekbone = Winks
 

Who’s our next manager?

So, @juste5boys continues his impressive run of form by correctly identifying 'Sugar' as Harry Kane. I really don't need to explain that one, right?

@jedimonkey pops up later with his rightly getting Cameron "Resume" Carter-Vickers.

And @CarrickSpurgus keeps up his contributions from the middle of the pack by hitting the mark with Ben "Interesting" Davies.

Unfortunate for @1971 Spur and @McFlash who both shoot wide - Resume (as noted above) isn't Vinicius, but again, like the thought process and Landing isn't Davinson Sanchez.

Moving on from that, the one I inadvertently gave away was that Joe Rodon is indeed Hit 'N' Run. Rodon = Rode On = Hit 'N' Run.

As noted in the edited OP - Perfectly-Acceptable isn't Sissoko, as it's been confirmed that he is in fact, Moussa 'The Moose' Sissoko.

And one final one. Lucas Moura isn't Forest.

I'll drop a little hint. There are two nicknames that sort of go together and so do the players that they've been applied to. Hopefully that helps...
Sugar Kane ...character played by Marilyn Monroe...Some Like it Hot if I remember....brilliant

Sorry, ross, that's snake-eyes, I'm afraid.

You're all going to hate me when I tell you what Lo Celso's is!

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
