[THREAD]

Likes, Retweets and follows appreciated🤝
Arsenal - The Gunners

7/10

Starting off strong, it shows that Arsenal are powerful like the cannon except from the fact they’re not.
Aston Villa - The villains

6/10

Pretty ironic seeing the way they stayed up in the league last season against Sheffield. But fair play to them for doing well this season very respectable.
Brighton - The Seagulls

6/10

With their xG, Brighton should be soaring into the top 4 but they can’t finish. Typical animal nickname gets a 6 from me.
Burnley - The clarets

2/10

Boring just describing the colour that they wear. Would have given a 3 but they forgot that they have blue sleeves.
Chelsea - The Blues

4/10

Boring and unoriginal to be honest. Can’t really write anything it’s just the colour they wear.
Crystal Palace - The Eagles

7/10

Big improvement from Brighton because an Eagle is a classy big bird. Extra point because they actually had one fly round on matchdays.
Everton - The Toffees

6.5/10

Has no relation to the club whatsoever and quite random. However that James Rodriguez moment gives it 6 points. The extra 0.5 come from him being a woman and me not discriminating.
Fulham - The Cottagers

6/10

Average name. Stadium is quite small and cosy like a cottage to be fair so quite cool in that sense.
Leeds - The Whites

4.5/10

Again a bit boring because it’s just the colour they play in but an extra half point because they play attractive football.
Leicester - The Foxes

8/10

A fox is a cool animal let’s be honest. Especially compared to birds like other clubs. Very creative.
Liverpool - The Reds

3/10

Boring and unoriginal like a few other clubs. -1 point because the fan base is deluded.
Manchester City - The Citizens

7/10

Quite a cool nickname, never really heard the word before so high points for originality.
Man United - The Red Devils

9/10

Quality nickname. Adding devils to it really makes opponents fearful of the team and shows the authority they had over the English game. Classy.
Newcastle - The Magpies

6.5/10

Another bird name. This gets a 6.5 because it’s better than the Seagulls but worse than the Eagles.
Sheffield United - The Blades

9.5/10

What a nickname. Coming from the steel city as well, the Blades just shows how sharp minded the person who came up with this was. Great nickname!
Southampton - The Saints

6/10

Average nickname let’s be honest. Get 1 extra point because of the song “When the Saints go marching in”
Spurs - The Lilywhites

5/10

Again just the colour they play in but an extra 0.5 points because they’ve added an extra word at the front which makes it a little bit less generic.
West Brom - The Baggies

4.5/10

I can’t lie, I don’t know what baggies actually are so points get lowered. However extra points for boing boing Baggies.
West Ham - The Irons/Hammers

9/10

Come on you Irons flows off of the tongue quite nicely. Hammers is also a cool nickname and shows how solid this team has become. Well done to David Moyes.
Wolves - The Wanderers

0.5/10

So unoriginal. Their actual name is Wolverhampton Wanderers. Poor effort. Saved the worst until last. Got the 0.5 because I feel bad for Jiminez.
