Call me PEFOK on Twitter
Easier for me to spell so great.
Do we know where he stands on Theoson or Jordan?
Deal, the other one is hard as fuck to spell
That's a god damn fact.
Come on guys, it's just his name - Theoson-Jordan Siebatcheu Pefok. He's not giving himself a nickname.
It's literally what is on the back of his jersey.
I didn't say it wasn't?
Yeah I was agreeing with you.
So what's the story behind Smith? Is that part of his name like Pefok?
Wait he's also Smith? Official list of names: Theoson, Jordan, Siebatcheu, Pefok, Smith. Dude's got 5 different names and only two places to put them.
Ben-Jarvis Green-Ellis begs to differ
We should repurpose one of the great sports nicknames - Canadian hockey player Jean-Luc Gran-Pierre.
The Hyphenator.
Came here to ask this as well. So many names.
I read somewhere that he's a big Will Smith fan and that's where it came from
Hmmm… still not clear I think
It’s a bit of an abrasive name to say, but it’s definitely original. But he rescued us from pens the other day, and got the game winner. He can tell me to call him whatever he likes.
I do think it would be a mistake to start him over Sargent vs Mexico, tho. Sargents work rate is going to be huge in a game like tomorrow’s.
Sargent saved that Honduran goal and he came very close a couple of times. Didn’t play terrible. We need someone who can finish though. Whoever that guy is needs to start.
A "mistake" is pretty strong for someone who hasn't been very threatening for goal recently
Sargent definitely threatened the goal. He had 3 shots on target against Honduras. He was responsible for at least .8 xG in that game, surely.
And Pefok really changed the dynamic when he came on, then scored. I'm not bashing Sargent here, but the idea that he is the obvious choice here is just silly. He hasn't captured that kind of respect yet.
I mean, if you think that just cause a guy hasn’t scored for the national team recently he’s by default less effective than a guy who scored a goal off the bench, then sure. Scoring from a start and scoring of the bench are quite different achievements.
I know that a strikers 1st priority is scoring goals, but there’s a lot more required from them in a high press system. Pefok doesn’t have all that in his locker. Sargent has it in spades. I think he was a bit unlucky to not have at least 2 goals against Honduras. Reyna and Puli both missed him wide open in front of net, and he should’ve scored that open header too.
He never had a pass like the one Pefok got on that game winner
Seems like a Memphis situation where he doesn't want to be associated with his father's surname.
Can't he just legally change his last name to reflect only Pefok?
PFuck!!!
im just gonna call him the best striker for the USMNT in 2021. Dike the rightful heir up next
He better start against mexico.

It's his mom's maiden name, and what he puts on his jersey
Alright. You got me
I cant pronounce this name either 😫.
