The Stockport Iniesta
The Yorkshire Pirlo
The Welsh Cafu
The Bury Beckham
Cringey as f@ck
Can you imagine the Brazilian,Spanish,Italians naming their players after English players who they are nowhere near as good as ?
The Rio Rooney
The Madrid Moore
The Sassuolo Scholes
Might aswell see the best ones we can come up with using Burnley players past or present
The Barcelona Blake

The Burnley Lara is one of the most well known.
No it is not cringey as **** and it’s quite a good laugh having a joke about someone not being good at something…

Unbelievably good now isn’t he? He was always class but he’s added so much to his game.

Are we still trying to sign the Coventry kane?
And after today, we can probably wave goodbye to the Uxbridge usshole, the kangaroo kourt krook, the brexit buffoon or whatever you want to call him even though we weren't meant to, but he's not a politician now, so it's probably alright.
