Xherdan Shaqiri



Say it with me...

"Xherdan Shaqiri"

Yeah, I don't know how to pronounce it either. But that's an "All-Name Team" winner if I ever heard one! And it seems that he's been noticed in the U21 tournament. Neal posted about him yesterday, and today this shows up in my Twitter feed:

9 - Only Xherdan Shaquiri (10) created more chances from open play at U-21 Euros than Juan Mata who also recorded most assists (2). Spark.less than a minute ago via web Favorite Retweet Reply



He's been linked with Liverpool for a while now, and they could use someone like him in the midfield. He's a difference maker, and would play out wide - avoiding the congestion in the center. But the strongest rumours have him going to Hamburg as former Spurs and Chelsea man Frank Arnesen looks to reshape that club.

    there's no U in his last name by the way.
    Xherdan Shaqiri

    To pronounce would be similar to:
    (Jerdan Shack-eerie)

  7. If he does come to the Premiership I can already see Sky or Match of the Day setting one of his winding runs to Shakira's "Hips don't lie"
