England National Football Team: A Word Cloud


Last night, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Martin Kelly were handed their England international debuts and in the process, became the 1181st and 1182nd players to don the Three Lions' jersey respectively. After the success of the Cristiano Ronaldo vs. Lionel Messi graph (thanks to a few good people on twitter), my blog had run dry for a week (that is, back to normal). The debutants or England were set to be my theme for a new post and the idea of a word cloud struck. So, here's a word cloud based on frequency of first or last names featuring among the 1182 players to have been capped by England. This is just a fun-post or a post out of boredom, to be honest, so I hope you like it.
