We ditched nicknames for players in 2008 as it got us nowhere. Our last player with a nickname was Steven "Superman" Ireland, and now look where he is.

None of our current crop have nicknames and we're on the cusp of a league title. So perhaps they are more of a burden than a blessing.

We still have a few:
Zabba Dabba Doo
Big Vinny K
and wiki reckons that DeJong has two nicknames; "the Terrier" and "the Lawnmower" x

Now you mention it, we also have Little Joe and JoLo as well.

Maybe it was just that Ireland wasn't all that good then.

I can't believe I forgot Merlin for Silva!

A lot of fans nicknames for City players haven't really been picked up by the tabloids yet, so most people don't think of them; you just find yourself using them in conversation x
