If football clubs were musical artists…
Have you ever wondered which bands or singers most closely resemble Premier League football clubs? Of course you haven’t, why would you? However, that hasn’t stopped us putting together a list of 12 of them. If you can think of any more, let us know on Twitter!
You might assume that we would lazily opt for Oasis. In fact City are most similar to the American rapper Nicki Minaj. Most of the world hadn’t heard of them until 2010 and both are 90% plastic.
When Sam Smith rose to prominence in 2014 he was slightly stocky to say the least. However, the singer has worked hard to lose an incredible 3.5 stone since then. For that reason he is closest to Man Utd, as neither are anywhere near as big as they used to be.
It’s fair to say that Chelsea and Coldplay share many similarities. They’re both hugely popular and have enjoyed staggering success, yet eveyone you speak to about them seems to hate them.
Historically Arsenal and Bob Geldof are both semi-relevant in the build up to Christmas before fading into obscurity in the New Year. Both tend to be very charitable away from home.
The average Spurs season is typically similar to the rise and fall of One Direction. It begins with hopeful fans passionately declaring their love for Harry before everything goes tits up and they are left crying hysterically.
Crystal Palace / Sinitta
West Ham / The Beatles
Many regard The Beatles as the most iconic band of all time, so is this a huge complement to West Ham? No. It’s because neither have done anything since the 70s and their most talented member always forces his way out.
