Who Was That Guy?
Filed under: NikeI know, I know, I’ve put this video up like three or four times already as it’s the freshest soccer commercial done to date, but trust me, this time it’s for the right reason.
Ever wonder who’s arms, feet, vomit and falling out teeth those are? I know I did.
I’ve been playing with him for about four months and I had no idea, but I know now and next week I’m going to have a sit down interview with him. The details that went into that commercial were incredible.
Guesses? I’ll throw in a Bumpy Pitch shirt for the first one who gets it right.
(No cheating - You know who you are!)
If it is who I think it is…
Nacer Barazite?
nope
robin van persie?
actually a lot of people think that, but nope..
RVP would be just too obvious
Vincent Van den Berg
as everyone googles the hell out of this… :p
Not Vincent Van Den Berg
Shot in the dark…Mike Munoz
Not Mikey Munoz..
Babel or Drenthe?
not that either one actually plays for Arsenal
Nope.. neither.
yea im an idiot. the player is white
hmm…van der Vaart?
vinnie jones
Not van der Vart, not Vinnie.. If it was Vinnie I think he would have decked Materazzi and that would have been the end of that commercial.. but good guess considering it was Guy Ritchie directing..
This is gonna be an odd post. But I did a bit of searching after a couple of your posts to figure out who you were after some of your bits about training and playing (no about us section that I could find), but I’m pretty sure I’ve got you pegged (so I think). So my guess is a fellow Crew player (one that’s recently joined). Sadly I don’t feel like investing that much time on a whim. So someone on the Crew roster and recent addition at that. How’s that for wild speculation.
Oh and I checked out those bumpy pitch tees. Pretty sweet but at $48 a pop, yikes!
Decent speculation, but not a crew player..
Right after posting that I saw your latest post and realized I was wrong. Okay now I think know you and the team (in part thanks to a previous guess), just need to name the player. Matt Taylor is my guess.
It’s me. And everyone else who watched the vid.
Robin Van Persie
I just love the speculation.
And the directors cut of this.
Man, such a good commercial.
And damnit… don’t tease with the shirt….
I wanna say Ian did it.
it was Rogandino!
Not Rogo.. not Ian.. and not Matty Taylor..
best guess so far is PShaw with Vincent Van Den Berg … digging into the reserve player profiles on the arsenal website lol… if no one gets it, he should get the shirt
Gilbert Montoya?
André Ooijer
We’ve got a winner!! Well done Toby..
Plenty of details from Gilbert Montoya next week!
I didn’t cheat. I still want my Free BP Tshirt…
[…] it’s been well documented on The Original Winger, I’ve had this weird obsession with the Guy Ritchie directed Nike commercial, “Take It […]
It`s Gilbert Montoya, the same actor from Pepsi, Shakira and many more commercials,
