The FATV Footballers' Alphabet: L is for...

Friday 13 Dec 2013
L is for... Lambert?

What is the first word that springs to your mind with each letter of the alphabet?

We asked a whole host of footballers, past and present, including England internationals Jack Wilshere, Gary Cahill and Jill Scott, as well as Thomas Ince and Ray Wilkins.

And the results were interesting to say the least.

Today, L is for... love, Liverpool and lemon, but a surprising number of stars were thinking of the phonetic alphabet...

Over the coming weeks, we'll bring you an exclusive video covering a letter of the alphabet each day and you can see what our subjects had to say...
