What does it mean, in football that is? I assume you're not talking about US Football here, as I've never heard the term. Just curious. It's such a bizarre word!
It means an American football player with a particularly aggressive style of play.

WOW! So it is a term used in American Football and not "soccer", even though I've never heard it before! There's just no end, I guess, for new things to learn!😁

Yes, American football.

“1. This is a powerful or violent collision between two players in football. The name derives from the idea that spit may fly from a player’s mouth, or slobber, as a result of such a hard hit. In some cases, the term is used to describe an intense game, with especially rough play throughout.”

Old-timers like Artie Donovan come to mind when I hear slobberknocker.

Thanks HB1994! Consider me enlightened! I honestly had never heard the term before, and I've been an American football fan for a long time now! Thanks again!
