French born of Senegalese descent, defender Habib played professionally in France (Paris Saint-Germain II, Strasbourg, Marseille) from 1997-2007. He went to the EPL in 2007, joining Newcastle. While he was there he had his own chant which gives me the giggles still to think about it. Of course it was to the tune of “Happy Days” – “Sunday, Monday, Habib Beye / Tuesday, Wednesday, Habib Beye / Thursday, Friday, Habib Beye / Saturday, Habib Beye, rocking all week with you!” Footy fans are endlessly creative, aren’t they? He joined Aston Villa in 2009. He has played regularly for Senegal’s national team since 2001.

That chant! LMAO! Thank you for my laugh of the day!
It cracks me up too. Apparently he had a lot of chants dedicated to him while he was there. There’s a whole website devoted to them, but that one takes the cake.
Wow. He’s beautiful. 🙂
AND he has a bitchin’ theme song! 🙂
I’d sing it to him every night… 😉
Only a true watishista! could make the singing of the Happy Days theme sound like a moment of epic perversity. Well done! 😉
LOL Why thank you! 😀
That chant has been stuck in my head ever since!
LOL! I found myself humming it all day as well.
I am dubbing Mou’s moubs Laverne & Shirley!
OMG. Classic. You just made the HB & HB Glossary with that. Adding it now.
