The Charlie Sheringham thread plus George Hirst and Andre has me thinking about kids of footballers and if they ever live up to their dad's

We have

Sheringham Jr, no where near as good

Jamie Redknapp better than Harry?

Andre thus far not as good as his dad.

Charlie Savage
Romeo Beckham
Ianis Hadji
George Hirst all TBC but I'd wager the 1st 2 might struggle and whilst I think Hirst will have a fine career will he be as good as David Was?



Kasper Schmeichel has been a great GK but not matched his dad.

Isn't Paolo Maldinis kid supposed to be decent?

Shaun and Bradley Wright Phillips not a patch on actual Wrighty.

Who am I missing?

Erling Haaland.


Jeez.... hoe did I miss the bloke scoring all my FPL points. Yeah fair to say he's already better than his dad, who was a fine footballer.

Brennan Johnson would be another, I'd argue he's about matched his dad

Brennan Johnson has played at a higher level than his dad, but I’m not convinced he’s a better player.

Mrs C knows Keith Peacock. He goes to her church. Nice bloke apparently.

Jordi Cruyff, Johann's boy.

Bit of a blessing and a curse really. You get attention you might not otherwise get, which sometimes leads to more opportunities, but also makes you an easy scapegoat.

Not sure that's true re the Cloughs, Brian was a top player whose career was cut short by injury.

Further to the Town references, Cameron Burgess's dad and grandad were both professional players, his grandfather a Scotland international goalkeeper.

Gavin Peacock was on R4 the other day being the Priestley rep on matters of what a man should be I think, he came across as committed

And Paolo Maldini was better than his father Cesare Maldini - a good long line of footballers in the Maldini family.

Periko Alonso was a good footballer but not as good as his son Xabi Alonso.

And at Brighton you have Mac Allister (Jnr) who I think is better than Mac Allister (Snr)

Brian was a phenomenal goal scorer, but he won less playing medals than Nigel... Or so I thought; Nigel joined Liverpool at the start of a Souness induced Trophy drought.

2x League Cup Winners medals for Nigel (Brian was manager) v 1x North Riding Senior Cup for Brian.

By the by, Cesare Maldini played at Portman Road for AC Milan in 1962.

Brian's career was cut short in its prime, so might well have gone on to win more. Call it a draw.

Paul Dalglish. Nowhere near as good as his dad. So bad, in fact he once played for Norwich.

Justin Kluivert is not quite living up to his dad.

Not sure if I missed it but also one from this year, Devante Cole obviously not as good as his dad.
