‘Unlucky!’ – Celebrate former Liverpool star Lucas Leiva’s birthday with this hilarious video

Just like The Terminator and John McClane, Lucas Leiva is perhaps best known for a short, but sweet catchphrase.

The Brazilian signed for Liverpool in 2007 and was heralded as the next big thing from South America.

The captain of the Brazil Under-20 team and the youngest player ever to receive Placar magazine’s Bola de Ouro (Golden Ball) award, the midfielder arrived at Anfield with high hopes.

While his career on the pitch may not have lived up to expectations, Lucas will be forever immortalised for his iconic ‘unlucky’ catchphrase.

Initially used to tease Jordan Henderson, the videos went viral for the understated comic genius of the tough-tackling Samba star.

So, in celebration of his birthday, talkSPORT.com have found a video dedicated to the Brazilian and his finest moment.

Now at Lazio, the 32-year-old is still fondly remembered on the red side of the Mersey for his committed style in the Reds’ engine room.

He was suspiciously crowned the Serie A side’s player of the Year after a landslide vote on Twitter earlier this month…
