Voices: Introducing Charles Lehman

Fresh off the heels of Ian Darke giving the blog a shout-out and one of the great trolls in recent international football play by Fernando Torres, another voice joins Cheeky Backheel. We’re getting closer and closer to fielding a proper starting eleven!

WHO ARE YA?
Charles Lehman

WHERE ARE YOU WRITING FROM?
Seattle

WHO DO YOU SUPPORT?
Sounders FC, Arsenal, Germany, USA

WHAT IS YOUR VOICE?
I will write and share my passions of the beautiful game. I’m a researcher at heart, so I’m very susceptible to transfer rumors across the globe. Google translate has become my best friend. I am fascinated by roster management and the roles of general managers and technical directors. I love all the various implementations of tactics and formations used from managers far and wide. I’m a huge fan of supporter groups and their culture of passion for their club. I get giddy over tifo displays.

WHICH SIMPSONS CHARACTER BEST REMINDS YOU OF FIFA PRESIDENT SEPP BLATTER AND WHY?
Mayor Quimby of course, for which this seems to write itself. Sepp Blatter is the epitome of “Corruptus in Extremis”, which is the seal on the office wall of Mayor Quimby. Sepp, like Quimby, has never by shy of a bribe, i.e., World Cup location bids from Russia 2018 and Qatar 2022.
