World Football's Top 10 Funniest Guys

Allan JiangMar 14, 2012

If you're down, laughing can be a natural cure and this is the perfect article for you. 

Football can entertain you with its artistry but it can also make you laugh. 

Here are world football's top 10 funniest guys. 

I've decided to only include people who are still in the industry. 

Mario Balotelli

1 of 10

There's the bib incident, the "Why always me" shirt, the daft red cards, the bust-ups, the crazy stories—you can't help but follow Mario Balotelli. 

He's so desired that in this reporter's head, he had mentally replaced Roberto Mancini with Balotelli. 

Dean Windass

2 of 10

It was heartbreaking to hear that Dean Windass was suffering from depression. 

Instead of having encyclopedic knowledge, his awkward and brutally honest responses were laugh-out-loud funny. 

Jeff Stelling

3 of 10

Jeff Stelling is an excellent broadcaster because he's someone you want to watch. 

His interaction with Chris Kamara is legendary.

José Mourinho

4 of 10

During his days at Chelsea, José Mourinho was more entertaining than the club because the team played defensive and disciplined football. 

Mourinho was the star of the show as he provided quote after quote for the media. 

Since leaving England, his celebrations have become more funny than what he says.  

Gordon Strachan

5 of 10

Here's Gordon Strachan talking about Wayne Rooney's international debut:

"

"It’s an incredible rise to stardom. At 17 you're more likely to get a call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Eriksson."

"

Tiziano Crudeli

6 of 10

I'm sure the word "goal" isn't the only word in Tiziano Crudeli's vocabulary. 

Ray Hudson

7 of 10

People often forget that Ray Hudson was providing quotes galore when he was a manager. 

He rivals Tiziano Crudeli in passion, but Crudeli is an ardent AC Milan supporter whereas Hudson is just a football lover. 

Jimmy Bullard

8 of 10

Interviewer: "What's the best band ever?"

Jimmy Bullard: "Elastic band."

You just have to love guys like Bullard who live life to the fullest. 

From a footballing perspective, he made a monumental mistake by leaving Fulham. 

Ian Holloway

9 of 10

Ian Holloway doesn't censor himself nor did he shy away from playing attacking football with Blackpool. 

Chris Kamara

10 of 10

Chris Kamara is surely the funniest lad in the footballing industry. He's unintentionally funny and he just wings it.
