The Travelling Faithful Are Clearly Beginning to Like Anderson

By: Nick | March 2nd, 2008

I caught this during the match.

This is the sheer genius of British football terrace culture — taking an undoubtedly fucking terrible pop song from 1984 (though chart topping) — and molding the tune into an ode to Anderson:

[to the tune of Black Lace's Agadoo]

‘Ander-son-son-son, he’s better than Kleber-son-son-son…’

*Those who spent their formative years in early 80’s UK might get what I mean more than most. Especially if you ever saw Kleberson play.

(chant spotted here in the Guardian’s dependable match report; watch the video below if you dare).

    Anderson son son
    He is better than Kleberson
    Anderson son son
    He’s our midfield magician
    To the left, to the right
    To the samba beat tonight
    He is class with the pass
    And he shits on Fabregas

    Two thoughts:

    1. Brilliant.

    2. Finally, a video I’ll never post on one of my blogs.

    Not as good as

    “He’s here, he’s there he’s shagging everywhere Ashley Cole, Ashley Cole, He’s here, he’s there he’s shagging everywhere Ashley Cole, Ashley Cole.”
