Let's make a football team of singers (Alt Version)!
by The Call of the Wendigo Fri Sep 02, 2022 9:21 pm
Inspired by tonight's old episode of TOTP, featuring Haddaway, it struck me that we could put together a football team made up of footballers who've had hit records. 
We're playing 4-4-2. I shall get the ball rolling.
Goalkeeper: Julio Iglesias.
Defence:
Midfield: Glenn Hoddle. Chris Waddle.
Forwards: Haddaway.
Players must have had a hit record in their own right, not as part of a team that had a hit record (eg, not just by being a member of the 1970 or 1990 England team).

We only need another 7 players.

I've added Pele to the team. Pele and Haddaway up front. Surely, no defence could stop them.

Haddaway's Wikipedia page makes no mention of him ever having been a footballer. Did Tony Dortie lie to me?

I hope I'm not going to have to replace him with Kevin Keegan.

Good news! There's a thread for that!

I've added Vinnie Jones to midfield, and replaced Haddaway with Kevin Keegan, as I can find no evidence that Haddaway ever was a footballer.The Call of the Wendigo wrote:We're playing 4-4-2. I shall get the ball rolling.

I've now added Gazza to midfield. I think I'm going to have to have a five-man midfield, with Hoddle, Jones and Gazza in the centre, and Waddle and another on the wings.The Call of the Wendigo wrote:We're playing 4-4-2. I shall get the ball rolling.

This means we only need three defenders who've had hit records.

Still a noticeable shortage of defenders.
