12 Footballers Who Physically Resemble Their Names
12: Dean Windass
Feeling bloated, Dean? 234 goals in 732 senior appearances, and yet there remains a lasting impression that there could have been so much more if he had tried Danone Activia.
11: David Seaman
Seaman always stuck as a man who would take you whale watching, put the boat in auto-pilot and clamber on top of the cabin like a pirate. He's also a keen angler.
10: Lopez Ufarte
Lopez Ufarte...................Lopez Ufarte again?
The striker's cult heroics included 15 caps and 5 goals for Spain; the stink surrounding his acrimonious axing from the national squad ahead of Euro '84 lives on.
9: Mark de Man
Cool as the Fonz. The Belgian international Mark De Many men from his deep-lying midfield position. And you can tell everybody, that Aloe Blacc penned a hit 2013 single in his honour.
8: Waldo Ponce
Of course he wears a hairband. We're also aware it's pronounced, 'pon-SAY,' but that doesn't really change anything for the Chilean international. Where's Waldo now? The 33 year old has made just 2 appearances in nearly three years for Universidad in his homeland.
7: Fanny Schamp
A former Winkel Sport (seriously) star, 'the Schamp' is said to clean up on Oekene's nightclub circuit. The Belgian is no relation to Andre Muff or Ralph Minge.
6: Gernot Sick
The former Austrian international won caps against Northern Ireland and England before an injury forced him into retirement. His children have never missed a day of school. (picture via Wanko's Blog. Yes, we know.)
5: Massimo Maccarone
Son of Carone. The former 'Boro striker was largely unmarkable during his spell in the Premier League, in that he scored 18 goals in 5 years, so there was no real point in marking him. His fortunes improved with 40 goals in 113 appearances for Siena, but has a man ever looked so much like an oblong piece of pasta?
4: Hayden Foxe
Sweet Jesus, it's uncanny. Having made his name at Portsmouth, Leeds fans will remember Fantastic Mr. Foxe from his spell at Elland Road between 2006 and 2007. The foxy former midfielder currently holds the role of assistant manager at A-League outfit Western Sydney.
3: Fabian Assman
You just know he is. (picture via fotolog)
2: Chiqui Arce
The former Paraguay manager led Cerro Porteno to an unbeaten Torneo Clausura triumph in 2013, before jumping ship to Cerro's arch rivals Olimpia two months ago. The chiqui pup. (picture via futbolistasparaguayos)
1: John De Wolf
I mean, for the love of Christ- he even played for Wolves. Johannes Hildebrand de Wolf's international career was cut short at 6 caps following his move to Mollineux from Feyenoord in 1994. De Wolf recently presented his own tv show on regional Dutch tv, entitled 'Sleeping With John.'
