I still like to reminisce over Xhaka starting on the entirety of the Emirates stadium.
Who is the most unhinged footballer?
- Thread starter Scandi Red
- Start date
Pretends to get hit by the ball from a throw in, incites violence from the crowd
Time wasting, falls back onto the pitch to delay time
Name fits perfectly
Can the condition be temporary? If so, I nominate Joe Cole in Moscow 2008.
Didier Lamkel Zé. I don't think anyone else comes close.
Example; Antwerp playing against AZ in the Europa League. Antwerp down to 10 men, Lamkel Zé scores the 1-0 in the 75th minute, Antwerp would progress to the next round. Lamkel Zé takes of his jersey and shows it to the opposition fans. Second yellow, Antwerp down to 9 men, they lose 1-4
Calling opposition fans "wankers" on Instagram. Elbowed a teammate during a training session.
Wanted a transfer to Antwerp's rivals, Anderlecht. Showed up to training in an Anderlecht shirt, and was blocked from entering by security guards

There are tons of other examples.

Can ‘unhinged’ stretch to off-field stuff too? Because Al-Saadi Gaddafi isn’t being beaten if so.
Emanuel Pogatetz was a bit of a firecracker. Obvious incident is the 2 footed assault on Possebon, but that wasn't an isolated incident. He seemed to opt for a studs-up scissor tackle whenever he was beaten, and got away with so many. If he played now, VAR would be sending him off every game he played.
Can't find any footage of it, but I'm sure it was Euro 2008, he was no incensed that a throw-in was given against him, he tried to bite the ball.
All things considered, on and off the field, it's probably Joey Barton though.

Thomas Gravesen was supposed to be an absolute headcase.
Also always remember that Ketsbia (Newcastle bald guy) going insane kicking the advertising boards and ripping his top off.

Do they have to be playing still? Matt Le Tissier deserves a mention if not.
Asprilla sounded colourful. Most of that columbia squad sounded a bit nuts
Not many people, never mind footballers, as unhinged as David Cotterill.
I think we're missing Cantona?
Suarez once tried to claim handball against a keeper claiming the ball in his own area.
Jizz Hornkamp came on with a brace to drown AZ today.
Duncan Ferguson. Even his bared teeth used to terrify me.
Glen Johnson (younger days)
Alan Smith

In the tradition of some news outlets recently, I feel obliged to provide a counterpoint.

How many attempted bites is that now? 4?
He was definitely a dog or a cat in a past life
I'm convinced he's half rottweiler.
Darwin Nunez was throwing chairs at Columbia fans last night, found his way into the crowd to fight them, threw a bunch of wild punches, none landed, got himself sparked out.
