He comes across as a really nice lad, super ambitious, very talented and excited to be here. All the things we love to see and hear. He's going to fit in really well. I'm wondering what name the fans will give him. I'm guessing Jezza.
I was proper shocked when I heard his accent the first time I saw him do an interview for Leverkusen. Didn't realise he was homegrown.
One thing to know about scousers is that while Mums will invariaby call their offspring by their full name, they will very rarely hear it from anyone else. If it can be shortened, it will be; if it can be lengthened, it will be; if you can get a Z in there, it will be inserted. I reckon Curtis will be onto it straight away .... after his Gakkers take on Cody's name.
Can't see that. It's army slang isn't it? If we're going with surnames, I could see a double header of Frimpy and Flo.
Ping Pong is the obvious one. My parents are big Nat King Cole fans so his name always makes me think of the song: I don't want French fried potatoes Red, ripe tomatoes I'm never satisfied I want the Frim Fram Sauce With the oss and fay With shifafa on the side
