When did this become a thing?
Footballers, ex-footballers, commentators, pundits etc when waxing lyrical about present day footballers that they rate can't pass comment without the top top eulogy.
What's it all about?
I ask because it genuinely annoys me!!!
Where's the balance?
Why are those that aren't too top described in a similar double noun, double adjective sorta way?
Thoughts please....

Gabby Agbonlahor (not the sharpest obviously) described someone earlier today on TalkSport as top top top.

2 "tops" is daft, but 3 "tops" takes piss. Give it a few weeks these cunts will be singing Loco in Acapulco.

Harry Redknapp first I can remember saying ‘top,top’.
Although I seem to imagine maybe Ron Atkinson?
