Whatever letter ends the name, then the next name has to start with that letter.
Example: Zlatan Ibrahimovic  
Ending letter is C so I would say Cristiano Ronaldo

Update on 4/18/16: Since this game has utilized only football/soccer players, I have decided that from now own, we should incorporate players from other sports (basketball, cricket, american football, tennis, etc.) However since this is a football website, some of us may not know people from other sports so when writing a name from a different sport, be sure to specify the sport it is from.

It helps people make sure you aren't BSing answers and on the other hand, to quote the famous anonymous quote, "you always learn something new everyday."

Rules:

1. You must start the next player's name with the last letter of the previous name
2. You can use either the last name or first name AND last name (no first name only)
3. You can use names of former players/legends as long as they follow the rules above.
4. You may not repeat names that have been used from the previous 100 posts.
5. You may not answer consecutively.

For example, if person A says a name and person B says another name, person A cannot immediately write a name that corresponds to the last letter of person B's name. He must wait until there is a person C that says a name before he puts a name again. I don't want this to be a two person thing.

Lastly, have fun and no trolling.

Let me start it. Frank Lampard 

Gianluigi Buffon

nemanja vidic

Carrick

kevin mirallas

Shinji Ono

Sorry I just had to bring this back... I may get scrutinized for doing this but this I believe is one of the most popular threads ever on Footyroom.

In addition, if this game does eventually get revived and continued, the people that continue can disregard any other previous name said and can repeat any name ONLY ONCE so they don't have to go through 11 pages of forum thread.

With that being said, I'll start this again after 2 years of waiting...

Daley Blind

Davide astori

Nicolas Otamendi
