Why does FC Porto's Hulk get subjected to monkey chants by Benfica fans? He's Brazilian and not even black. Anyone know the reason? (he's green, hilarious )
I like how the Brazilian's get to wear their nickname on their shirt. Would be a good idea if Rangers done it too. McShagger tops would fly off the rails.
Kaka - Ricardo Izecson dos Santos Leite Hulk - Givanildo Vieira de Souza Pato - Alexandre Rodrigues da Silva Neymar - Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior Roberto Carlos - Roberto Carlos da Silva Rocha Ronaldo (toothy) - Ronaldo LuÃs Nazário de Lima Rivaldo - Rivaldo VÃtor Borba Ferreira Zico - Arthur Antunes Coimbra Sócrates - Sócrates Brasileiro Sampaio de Souza Vieira de Oliveira Some of them don't exactly roll off the tongue
I think they usually get two forenames then the mothers maiden name, then the fathers surname. I would guess he gets monkey chants because although not black, he is dark skinned.
Probably doing it because of where he is from then rather than the colour of his skin, just like Celtic's "Dave" Ki Sung-Yueng. please log in to view this image
here's one way to silence them. What a goal! [video=youtube;Oj6L6Ibv8VI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oj6L6Ibv8VI[/video]
So you think a footballer would go with a nickname rival fans use against him? I'd hate to see what names you'd give to the rest of our team.
I know a Portuguese **** that supports benfica and even hes quite racist for someone that suffers an all year round tan.
