    Have we ever had any other players with four syllables in their surname?

    As I posted the other day, my sources tell me that if you pronounce Ekstrand's name the correct, original way, it has four syllables...

    Not a patch on the correct pronunciation of his surname Pumpernickel, which has 43 syllables...

    As did Noel-Williams, depending on how you pronounced it.

    Eleftheriou is a 5, even though he made just 1 first team appearance.

    Iwelumo is another 4.

    Um, you might need a bit of a counting refresher there, mate; 'Gray' only has the one syllable.

    Yves Makabu-Ma-Kalambay has to be the most lengthy name we've ever had. Was briefly on loan as emergency GK cover in 2006 when Foster got suspended.

    Never made it off the bench, but was the first Watford player to have the squad number 50.

    Legend.

    If his first name was Marvellous that would have been a name worthy of gracing any first XI.

    The footballer with the most letters is Neil Webb. Former Man Utd defender.


    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Webb

    "After Webb left Reading, he could occasionally be found selling programmes at Reading's Madejski Stadium. He became a postman and was featured in the Observer Sport Supplement in a "Where Are They Now?" feature and is currently working for a transport company. He is also a regular guest on Talksport"

    The key thing about this signing is less about syllables, and more about the Watford players A-Z now being achievable
