..... You weren't listening? :icon_wink
In all seriousness I've only heard Iain Dowie and Chris Kamara use it... if that actually counts.

I've seen the expression used on Twitter. I did a search of the people I follow, and this was the result:

Then I did a search for the 'worldy', and there were a lot more tweets - but mostly from 2012.

So, no actual definition then. Makes sense.
I would have thought it's pretty obvious that it means 'world class'.

De Laet has pace, has a good"engine" and is a real danger going forward.
I've long maintained that defensively he is one of the doziest players I've ever seen. Guilty of huge lapses in concentration and struggles positionally.
I Still rate the bloke for his other attributes and his pace often covers up his defensive play.

Apologies, but that just looks like a wall of gibberish to me.
Surely after years of reading gibberish on here you can understand it by now?
A quick google suggests that the word was popularised by the TV programme Geordie Shore. I've not seen it, and after reading about it I hope I don't ever see it.

It seems that's a spin-off of Jersey Shore, a hateful tv show about a group of vain, self-obsessed scumbags in the actual real geographical region called the Jersey Shore. I don't know where the Geordie Shore is.

Nobody had ever said it until ten minutes ago, now it's a 'proper' football word.

Another saying that is being used is
By the way nice header down from James. With his goal too I thought he had a good game yesterday.
to describe goals like Drinkwater's and similar

Knockaert looked ok yesterday, the new French lad looked more threatening when he came on. One thing I didn't like is that a few times when he's in possession with no team mate support he would quite clearly show his frustration about that.. didn't like that very much! I thought it was a decent performance from the team on the whole, we deserved something from the game.

To be fair there were moments when, uncharacteristically, we were very static.
