Ok guys, the other thread about viewing centers inspired me to open this thread. I saw some hilarious names people call players in their area.

So for the fun of it, what nicknames do u call player in ur area? If possible state the reason(s) why u call them those names.

Let me start:

*Fabregas = Fabre-pass (pass accuracy)
*David Silva = Choir Master (his rate of dominance in the midfield)
*Essien = Industrial Battery (he is just so tireless)
*Charmakh = Chiamaka (an ibo name that sound like his real name)
*Henry = Igwe
*Ferdinand = Igbo (as in drug man)
*Ivanovic = Chin Chin (hard to chop like chin chin)
*Van Der Saar = Nmadu asaa ('seven people' in ibo)
*Obertan = Toshiba (remember that toshiba ad in HiTV couple of seasons ago? Obertan looks like that robot)
*Van Nistlerooy = Food is ready (can score 'tap in' so very well. Always at the right place at the right time)
*Clichy = Kilishi (that suya. . .sounds like his name)
.
More to follow. . .
