Heskey has a genius level intellect... or something like that.
Tom Adeyemi?

2 A*s and an A at A level with an offer from Cambridge.

It wasn't an attack, keep your knickers on. Just thought it was interesting that a doctor/footballer would be such a heavy smoker.
Shouldn't the response question be "which genius is the best at football?"

Juan Mata, Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard... Most of the Spanish and German team... I'd say most footballers are intelligent, though some *ahem* Wayne *ahem* aren't that bright...
I'm sure Socrates became a doctor after he stopped playing!

Joey Barton seems as articulate as a fish...

Super Franky Lampard has an A* in Latin I'll have you know and I bet you don't.


He also has a high IQ ("above 150").

Any one of them with a GCSE. Oh wait, no footballers have any because they were too busy playing for their teenage football teams and going to endless try-outs.

They're all thick as **** and it really shows.


Thick and rich

Albert Camus was the Algerian goalkeeper in the late 1920s.


Not quite, though he did play for a team that won the Algerian championship a couple of years afterwards.
No one has mentioned the philosopher and actor in an Oscar winning film, Eric Cantona.

Agbonlahor strikes me as quite intelligent.


Frank Lampard, who has an apparently ridiculously high IQ
Paul Scholes. You mean on a football pitch right? The lad has probably never even read his own Autobiography though.
