In a pile of football shirts
Who’s that man from Argentina
Who’s that man we all adore
Mac Allister is his name
Winning the World Cup is his game
And we don’t mention Leo anymore.

In terms of scanning, I’m in the camp where you use the same number of syllables or beats as in the original. You’ve indicated 9 here. The original Oasis song has 11 in that line.
It does, but 'he only cost us a couple of million' just doesn't work.

As for the original, only the second line of the first verse has 11; subsequent verses have 8 or 9. - e.g. 'and god only knows how I've missed her' (9)' we don't get on with one another (9), or 'in fact she's got 'bout a dozen (8)'.

Am I right he’s now got a one match ban? Is that Bmuff or the cup?
