The Kop collectively squeezing their testicles hard to reach that 'foooool!' note
I did think that last note was a little high. One for the ladies?

Fiesta magazine, c1987

A Tory, a worker and an immigrant are sat round a table. There's a plate of 10 biscuits in the middle. The Tory takes 9 then turns to the worker and says "that immigrant is trying to steal your biscuit"

Pass the Ball, Takumi Minamino
Through on goal, Takumi Minamino
He's the best, that we have ever seen oh
Number (something) oh Takumi Minamino


A bit morose at original tempo though. maybe sped up a bit.
Love that. How about:

Pass the Ball, Takumi Minamino
Through on goal, Takumi Minamino
Best winger that you have ever seen oh
He's Minamino, he's our Minamino


The third line assumes he'll be good of course.

I really should do some work today

Naaaaaah
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

His first name means 'artisan' and his last name means 'South Plain'.

I'm assuming 'South Plain' refers to either Wembley or the Atatürk Stadium?

Oh Takumi Minamino,  leaves defenders far behind
Cos his feet will dance and if they will dance
Well he will beat you down the line
I say, he will score when he wants to, I think that you will find
And he will play football from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind,
I say he will dance, he will dance, amazing ball control
He will dance, he will dance,  fantastic with the ball
He will dance, he will dance, everybody jizz in your hands
He will dance, he will dance , and so will all the fans

Does this mean we're not signing Mbappe?

 ???
No, Mpabbe is joining with this lad so we have someone to field in the next League cup game against the likes of Villa while the senior squad are at the CWC.
"All the lads have been talking about is walking out in front of the Kop, with 40,000 singing 'You'll Never Walk Alone'," Collins told BBC Radio Solent. "All the money in the world couldn't buy that feeling," he added.

Another interesting thing to consider is that Brazil has a massive Japanese population. Japanese culture is huge there.  1.6 million Japanese people live in Brazil, which is the largest Japanese population outside of Japan itself. It’s like adding a twist to our current Brazilian contingent and will only raise our popularity in Brazil.  Likewise you will find our Brazilian players become very marketable in Japan itself. So you can see the signing of Takumi Minamino is pretty much a marketing dream.

Not bad when you consider that Takumi himself is a phenomenal playerand will be a great addition to our squad.  He’s young, good value, and lots of potential to develop further. This signing makes so much sense from so many perspectives.

Potentially in line to make his debut against Everton.

Not sure we should expect too much from him for the rest of the season. It always takes a while for players from other clubs to get used to Klopp's ways and its going to be a big jump in standards from the Austrian league no matter how good he is.
