Team made up with country names

**OwlsFan** · 26/06/2017, 3:53 PM

A friend of mine sent this on to me. I think it's an original but haven't czeched (pun intended):

Goal keeper: Petr Czech, Back 4: Gino Brazil, Ken Oman, Mike England, Ryan France (Blunts and England),
Midfield: Alan Brazil, Stephen Ireland, Matt Holland and Gary Wales (Scotland and Raith Rovers),
Forwards: Jason Scotland and Joe Jordan
Manager: Vanderlei Luxemburgo

He's also given me a team made up of birds' names (of the feathered variety) with the comment that "they're good in the air..."

Anyone like to try that ?

Would SI have shown up?

Bird names: Ian Thrush, Emu (Arsenal), Gareth Quail (Spurs), Manager...Louis Van Gull. That's the best i can do without cheating.

There's been a few Peacocks over the years I think, defender at Newcastle with the long hair and Gavin Peacock at Chelsea (striker I think). Might have even been a Peacock goalkeeper maybe?

Mark Robins comes to mind assuming that counts.

Norwich v Brighton is an all-birds clash too of course!
