[Jimmy Floyd]

I looked up Woodgate and sure enough, 8 England caps and he spent the whole of 2004-05 on Real Madrid's books with 0 appearances.

[thommo]

I looked up Woodgate and sure enough, 8 England caps and he spent the whole of 2004-05 on Real Madrid's books with 0 appearances.

No caps whilst actually at Madrid though. Earned his 5th cap at Newcastle before leaving for Real Madrid, earned his 6th whilst on loan at Middlesbrough, and his 7th and 8th at Spurs.

[Jimmy Floyd]

I know, I wasn't disputing it, just found it incredible that he didn't make 10 caps.

[SvN]

When he was at Leeds, him and Rio were very much touted as England's future, with a lot of people rating Woodgate ahead of Ferdinand. He was a brilliant defender, injuries ruined him.

[niko_cee]

Injuries and racism.

[Danny]

I was going to say beating up a Pakistani lad outside Majestyks didnt help him.

[thommo]

Years and clubs of the remaining players on my list:

1948-49 - Notts County
1956-57 - Coventry City
1959-60 - Hibernian
1962 - Crystal Palace
1962 - Inter Milan
1971 - QPR
1976 - Crystal Palace
1979-81 - West Ham United
1979 - Crystal Palace

There may be a few more not on my list, so a bonus point if you guess one of those that turns out to be right.

[SvN]

Which of those is the recent player?

[thommo]

Which of those is the recent player?

I miscounted with Joe Hart being added. Added a line in where there wasn't one.

[SvN]

Fair enough.

Alvin Martin for the West Ham one. No clue on the others.

[thommo]

Fair enough.

Alvin Martin for the West Ham one. No clue on the others.

Close, but Martin got his first cap just after promotion.

[Danny]

Kenny Sansom

[thommo]

Kenny Sansom

Correct, 1 cap in 1979 with Palace.

[SvN]

Is the 62 or 71 guy part of the 66 winning team?

[thommo]

Is the 62 or 71 guy part of the 66 winning team?

Neither of them were. Interestingly, both played for Fulham at some point in their career.

[Max Power]

Stan Bowles for QPR

[bruhnaldo]

Are any of the remaining players currently managers?

[thommo]

Stan Bowles for QPR
Earned his first cap in '74, the year after QPR were promoted.


Are any of the remaining players currently managers?
Not currently, although one has been in management for 30 years, and another was briefly a caretaker manager in the Premier League & Championship.

[Dave.]

West Ham one has got to be Trevor Brooking.

[Dave.]

That Inter Milan one is G Hitchens (can't remember first name, maybe Geoff or Gary?), he was the first player to play for England whilst at a foreign club.

[SvN]

Ah, it's Gerry Hitchens. He died on the pitch of some charity game after he retired.

[thommo]

West Ham one has got to be Trevor Brooking.

That Inter Milan one is G Hitchens (can't remember first name, maybe Geoff or Gary?), he was the first player to play for England whilst at a foreign club.
Close enough, it was Gerry Hitchens. Ah, SvN gets it as I'm posting.

1948-49 - Notts County
1956-57 - Coventry City
1959-60 - Hibernian
1962 - Crystal Palace
Gerry Hitchens – 4 caps – 1962 – Inter Milan
1971 - QPR
1976 - Crystal Palace
Trevor Brooking – 12 caps – 1979-81 – West Ham United
Kenny Sansom – 1 cap – 1979 – Crystal Palace

[thommo]

Some more clues for the final few:

1948-49 - Notts County - Moved for a British record transfer fee of £20,000, strong centre forward. 22 goals in 23 England caps, also played for Everton, Chelsea, Brentford and Arsenal.
1956-57 - Coventry City - Goalkeeper, who also played for Chelsea and Derby.
1959-60 - Hibernian - Striker who started career in Scotland. Also played briefly in Italy alongside Denis Law, before moving to Arsenal and then Nottingham Forest.
1962 - Crystal Palace - Striker who also played for West Ham. Famously scored a hat trick for England in a win over Portugal in the 60s.
1971 - QPR - Maverick forward who also played for Man City and Fulham. Worked as a pundit for many years.
1976 - Crystal Palace - Winger, better known for 30 years in management across all levels in England, including the national side.

[Dave.]

Rodney Marsh for QPR one?

[Danny]

Rodney Marsh?

[thommo]

Rodney Marsh for QPR one?

Rodney Marsh?
Correct.

[bruhnaldo]

1976 - Crystal Palace - Winger, better known for 30 years in management across all levels in England, including the national side.

Kevin Keegan?

This probably is daft as fuck so I apologize I was just trying to think of fellas who managed England.

[niko_cee]

Terry Venables?

He definitely managed Palace (creating the Brighton rivalry), so I guess he probably played for them.

[bruhnaldo]

Roy Hodgson played for Palace or something didn't he? Was he ever actually any good as a footballer? '76 probably too late for him though.

[Jimmy Floyd]

The 1948 one is Tommy Lawton.

[Shindig]

Venables got his caps in '64, apparently.

I've looked it up. He did manage England.

[thommo]

The 1948 one is Tommy Lawton.

Not Keegan, Hodgson or Venables for the Palace player. I'll give it till the end of the day for anyone to get the remaining 4.

1956-57 - Coventry City - Goalkeeper, who also played for Chelsea and Derby.
1959-60 - Hibernian - Striker who started career in Scotland. Also played briefly in Italy alongside Denis Law, before moving to Arsenal and then Nottingham Forest.
1962 - Crystal Palace - Striker who also played for West Ham. Famously scored a hat trick for England in a win over Portugal in the 60s.
1976 - Crystal Palace - Winger, better known for 30 years in management across all levels in England, including the national side.

[Mellberg]

Roy Hodgson was a winger? :D

Bet he called himself a right-sided player.

[bruhnaldo]

Roy Hodgson was a winger? :D

I got no idea papa I was just throwing names out there sry

[bruhnaldo]

I looked up the Palace bloke, never heard of that guy in my life. whopos!

[Jimmy Floyd]

Must be Peter Taylor simply by process of elimination on all other England managers.

Christ we're going to need a few of these in the next few weeks.

[thommo]

[thommo]

We need more trivia to while away the time stuck at home, so here goes.

Can you name the top African league goalscorer for each Premier League season since its inception?

[Shindig]

Drogba
Kanu
Adebayor
Papis Cisse

[thommo]

Drogba
Kanu
Adebayor
Papis Cisse

Cisse scored 13 in 2011-12, but Adebayor topped the list with 17 goals, level with another African.

[SvN]

Mo Salah
Efan Ekoku
Daniel Amokatchi
Yaya Toure
Odion Ighalo
Yakubu
Amir Zaki

[thommo]

Mo Salah
Efan Ekoku
Daniel Amokatchi
Yaya Toure
Odion Ighalo
Yakubu
Amir Zaki

Yakubu topped the list 4 times, which is the most. Zaki snuck in with 10 goals in 08/09, level with Adebayor and 1 other.

[Shindig]

Lomana Lua Lua didn't have a mad enough season for this.
Gervinho?

[thommo]

Lomana Lua Lua didn't have a mad enough season for this.
Gervinho?

Neither of those. Gervinho only managed 9 goals in 2 seasons.

[Dave.]

2017-18 – Mohamed Salah (Egypt) – 32 goals
2018-19 – Sadio Mane (Senegal), Mohamed Salah (Egypt) and 1 other – 22 goals

[Shindig]

See, I chalked Kanoute off because I thought he switched to Mali in his Sevilla days.

Steven Pienaar

[SincereTheRebel]

Switched.

Berahino

[SvN]

Tony Yeboah
Kanu
Moses

[SvN]

Peter Odemwinge

[SincereTheRebel]

Marcus Gayle
Jason Euell
Robbie Earle
Geremi
Martins
Okocha
Ameobi
Kalou

[SvN]

Jamaica isn't in Africa, Sincere.

[thommo]

Switched.

Berahino
I thought that would be the toughest one. Burundi international Berahino managed 14 goals in 2014-15.


Tony Yeboah
Kanu
Moses

Peter Odemwinge
Kanu has already been said, but Yeboah and Odemwingie are both correct also.

Just 3 names left, don't miss the 18-19 joint top scorer with Mane & Salah.

[Shindig]

Aubameyang!

[SincereTheRebel]

Jamaica isn't in Africa, Sincere.



https://media.giphy.com/media/3o7aTLhoDUdLALkXBe/giphy.gif




I thought that would be the toughest one. Burundi international Berahino managed 14 goals in 2014-15.



The switch gave it away.

[thommo]

Aubameyang!

Just 2 left - one a little tough, and one very tough in my opinion.

[Jimmy Floyd]

I have no idea who 98 would be if it wasn't Ekoku. Surely not Wreh?

[SvN]

Mark Fish?

[Dave.]

Lucas Radebe?

[Shindig]

Fortune?

[Danny]

Amokatchi

Terrible spelling I am sure

[SvN]

Marc Vivien Foe?

[SvN]

Jay Jay Okacha?

[thommo]

Marc Vivien Foe?
Foe is correct for 02-03, with 9 goals. Ekoku scored 4 goals in 97-98, with the top African goalscorer getting 5.

[Shindig]

That surprises me. I never really saw Foe as a goalscorer.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Having looked up the 98 one (even that with great difficulty), my clue would be it's someone who is known neither for being African nor for having succeeded at all in the PL.

[Dave.]

I'm stumped as well. I thought Ekoku was the answer.

[SincereTheRebel]

Hadji
chippo

[Shindig]

Kachloul
Bartlett

[SvN]

He's probably an English guy that played for an Afircan country because he was too shit for England (Robbie Earle).

Someone like Marcus Bent?

[thommo]

None of the above. The player is duel citizenship Ivorian/French if that helps, and is (apparently) a bit of a cult hero at the Premier League club he turned out for.

[Shindig]

I had a list of African goalscorers just in front of me and nobody jumped out. French Ivorian doesn't help in the slightest. I was looking for the least African names.

[SvN]

There goes my theory then.

If you tell us who he played for, will that give it away?

[thommo]

Not particularly - he played for West Ham between 1997 and 2000, with short spells on loan at Ipswich and Walsall.

[Danny]

Samassi Abou

[thommo]

Samassi Abou

Danny gets it! Full list as follows:

1992-93 – Peter Ndlovu (Zimbabwe) – 7 goals
1993-94 – Efan Ekoku (Nigeria) – 12 goals
1994-95 – Tony Yeboah (Ghana) – 12 goals
1995-96 – Tony Yeboah (Ghana) – 12 goals
1996-97 – Efan Ekoku (Nigeria) – 11 goals
1997-98 – Samassi Abou (Ivory Coast) – 5 goals
1998-99 – Efan Ekoku (Nigeria), Nwankwo Kanu (Nigeria) – 6 goals
1999-2000 – Nwankwo Kanu (Nigeria) – 12 goals
2000-01 – Frederic Kanoute (Mali) – 11 goals
2001-02 – Frederic Kanoute (Mali) – 11 goals
2002-03 – Marc-Vivien Foe (Cameroon) – 9 goals
2003-04 – Yakubu (Nigeria) – 16 goals
2004-05 – Yakubu (Nigeria) – 13 goals
2005-06 – Yakubu (Nigeria) – 13 goals
2006-07 – Didier Drogba (Ivory Coast) – 20 goals
2007-08 – Emmanuel Adebayor (Togo) – 24 goals
2008-09 – Emmanuel Adebayor (Togo), Benni McCarthy (South Africa), Amr Zaki (Egypt) – 10 goals

2011-12 – Emmanuel Adebayor (Togo), Yakubu (Nigeria) – 17 goals
2012-13 – Demba Ba (Senegal) – 15 goals
2013-14 – Yaya Toure (Ivory Coast) – 20 goals
2014-15 – Saido Berahino (Burundi) – 14 goals
2015-16 – Riyad Mahrez (Algeria) – 17 goals
2016-17 – Sadio Mane (Senegal) – 13 goals
2017-18 – Mohamed Salah (Egypt) – 32 goals
2018-19 – Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Gabon), Sadio Mane (Senegal), Mohamed Salah (Egypt) – 22 goals

[SvN]

I barely remember him, but I remember him as French rather than African.

That was a good one though.

[thommo]

I barely remember him, but I remember him as French rather than African.

That was a good one though.

It was a little contentious, but he was described as Ivorian in most places I checked. I'll try and get another question up shortly.

[Ian]

That half-season where Zaki was a beast. :drool:

[thommo]

As a quickfire follow-up to the last one, can you name all of the top Premier League goalscorers from the Americas & Caribbean for each season?

[Shindig]

Elano
Gilberto Silva
Roque Santa Cruz

[thommo]

Elano
Gilberto Silva
Roque Santa Cruz

Just one to get from 2000-01! Surprised you got Silva as a top scorer, but he got 10 in 06-07, 5 from the spot.

[Shindig]

Sylvinho's in the team of year for some reason so I wonder if he scored a couple.

[Luca]

Radzinski :cool:

No Americans there, so I'll take a punt on a few from that era:
Reyna
McBride

Most of the good ones have been keepers :moop:

[Dave.]

I think 2000/2001 was the year Gus Poyet scored loads of goals so it could be him.

[thommo]

I think 2000/2001 was the year Gus Poyet scored loads of goals so it could be him.

How many Kenyans have played in the league? Just Wanyama?

And Hondurans? I want to think there has been some sort of forward, but I can only think of Wilson Palacios. Where was Rodallega from?

Roque Santa Cruz of Paraguay if not already said.

Colombia maybe Asprilla or Juan Pablo Angel?

Okazaki for Japan? Feels like there may be a better guess than that.

Rodallega was also Colombian. Wanyana is the only Kenyan goalscorer, not sure if others have made appearances.

Only 14 goals for Okazaki but it puts him as the top Japanese goalscorer.

[Dave.]

If Van Nistelrooy is not Netherlands one, it must be van Persie.

Berahino for Burundi

McCarthy for Seth Efrica?

Adrian Mutu for Romania?

Zola for Italy?
Weah and Wreh were the only 2 Liberians to score in the Prem. Zola did score 59 PL goals, but not enough to top the list of Italians.

[Dave.]

Modric for Croatia?
Jaidi for Tunisia?
Tuncay or Muzzy Izzet for Turkey?
Fan Zhiyi for China?
Di Canio for Italy?

Marcus Gayle.

Marcus Gayle.

Jason Euell?
Di Canio with 66 goals, and Euell with 56. There's two left with over 50 PL goals.

[niko_cee]

Rasiak for Poland?
Podolski for Germany? Or Ozil?
Arnautovic for Austria?
Gyan for Ghana?

[thommo]

Mitrovic or Milosevic for Serbia?

Milosevic is correct - the only one that was a little contentious as he was playing for Yugoslavia at the time. Mitrovic was second on the list anyway, with 25 goals, so you're right either way.

Edit: Actually, Milivojevic has 26 PL goals now so he'd be second, but close enough.

[thommo]

Rasiak for Poland?
Podolski for Germany? Or Ozil?
Arnautovic for Austria?
Gyan for Ghana?
No PL goals for Rasiak, all his goals in England came in the Championship. Ghana have two top scorers, but Gyan is neither of them.

[Dave.]

Chris Samba
Samuel Eto'o
Eriksen
Forssell for Finland.

[Luca]

Bendtner for the Danes?

EDIT: Good shout on Eriksen, and it would highlight what a useless cunt Bendtner was if true.

Johansson got more than Forssel I'd have thought

China - Fan Zhiyi / Sun Jihi

Eriksen scored 51 compared to Bendtner's 32 PL goals, and Forssell scored 34 compared to Johansson's 27.

Taarabt for Morocco

[bruhnaldo]

Hazard for Belgium perhaps

[bruhnaldo]

Giannakopoulos for Greece? He was at least a couple of seasons at Bolton.

Nikos Dabizas.

Curacao must be Bacuna? I can't even think of another player from the Antilles.

Oh, Martina I guess, but I think Bacuna would be the one banging in the goals.

[Max Power]

Ruel Fox for Monsserat.
Manucho for Angola
Christopher Wreh for Liberia

[Jimmy Floyd]

Barbados = Emmerson Boyce

[Luca]

Oh! Speaking of mid-noughts Bolton. Ricardo Gardner (:cool:) for Jamaica?

[Luca]

Mart Poom scored a cracking header once (as a goalkeeper I remember these things) so I'm going to take a cheeky punt on it being him for Estonia, but it's obviously someone else.

Ghana, probably Essien or Yeboah

Sierra Leone - think it's Kei Kamara with 1, unless Al Bangura ever netted

EqG - blimey. Struggling. Has that Pedro Obiang or whatever played for them? If not, no idea.

Gambia - that midget winger bloke at Swansea. Jallow? Moussa Jallow? Could be inventing him.

Yeboah is level with another Ghanaian on 24 goals. Correct on the Gambian winger, but Max below got the name, it was Mo Barrow with a solitary goal.


Mo Barrow is the Gambian
Hassan Kachloul for Maroc?
Teymourian for Iran?

Jahankabash?
You've named 2 of the 3 Iranian PL goalscorers between you but missed the leader.


Joseph Desire Job for Cameeoon
Sukur
Boksic
Jason Roberts
Dexter Blackstock
Roberts is correct for Grenada but has already been said. Blackstock has scored a PL goal and is from Antigua and Barbuda, but someone else has scored 2.

[bruhnaldo]

Fuck Kei Kamara

[SvN]

Other Ghanian might Jordan Ayew?

Palacios or Figueroa for Honduras.

Carl Cort for Guyana.

Maynor is right, and I made a mistake anyway - Roger Espinoza was the 3rd Honduran to score (also while at Wigan) and I'd mixed up the surnames.

[SvN]

Croatia must be Modric or Eduardo.

The only Estonian player I can think of is Klavan for Liverpool, but I don't remember him scoring. Have there been any others?

For Slovakia, I can only think of Skrtel.

Slovenia must be Vuckic

[thommo]

Croatia must be Modric or Eduardo.

The only Estonian player I can think of is Klavan for Liverpool, but I don't remember him scoring. Have there been any others?

For Slovakia, I can only think of Skrtel.

Slovenia must be Vuckic

Klavan scored only one goal, an injury-time winner at Burnley. Skrtel managed 16 PL goals but is not the top Slovakian goalscorer, and Vuckic never scored in the Prem.

[SvN]

Suker for Croatia? He was pretty wank from what I remember at Arsenal and West Ham. Boksic? Kranjcar?

[thommo]

None of the above. Boksic and Kranjcar are 2nd and joint 3rd, with 22 and 20 PL goals.

[Luca]

Is the Polish lad Grosicki?

[SvN]

Jelavic? He must've scored more than 22.

[niko_cee]

Prso? Did he even play in England? Jelavic?

Edit, new page, ignore.

[Max Power]

Robert Koren for Slovenia

[thommo]

Is the Polish lad Grosicki?
Not Grosicki, he didn't manage to score in his one season with Hull.


Jelavic? He must've scored more than 22.
Jelavic is correct, he scored 29 PL goals.


Robert Koren for Slovenia
Koren is one of only 2 Slovenian scorers.

Slovakia and Slovenia i get confused so ill guess skrtel, nemeth, zlotan gera,

[Jimmy Floyd]

Antigua - Mikele Leigertwood

Poland - that square headed bloke who played for Leicester. Wasilewski

[SincereTheRebel]

Antigua and Bernuda is bugging. If its not Blackstock its some other Uk born player. Chabolah? Cherno Samba?

[Luca]

Did Loik Cana sneak one for the mackems when they were up? Henri Mrkhrhthjtjkthththjthjhjtarian?

One's Albanian, the other's Armenian. Did Weiss bag any goals for City?

[Shindig]

One's Albanian, the other's Armenian.

Let's call the whole thing off.

[thommo]

Bertrando troare. Chelsea reject playing in lyon
Bertrand Traore is correct, the only PL goalscorer from Burkina Faso.


Ruel Fox
Polish player did he play for hull?
Iran is Dejagah or something. Fulham player
Fox was the answer for Montserrat and has been said already, but Dejagah is correct, 5 goals for Fulham.


Slovakia and Slovenia i get confused so ill guess skrtel, nemeth, zlotan gera,
Nemeth is the correct answer for Slovakia, with 23 PL goals.


Antigua - Mikele Leigertwood

Poland - that square headed bloke who played for Leicester. Wasilewski

Antigua and Bernuda is bugging. If its not Blackstock its some other Uk born player. Chabolah? Cherno Samba?
Jimmy gets the Antiguan, Leigertwood scored 2 goals. Wasilewski did score a PL goal, but is not the answer.

So that leaves just North Macedonia, Poland and Saint Kitts and Nevis to get.

[SincereTheRebel]

Pandev

[thommo]

Pandev

Never played in the PL. There have only been 4 Macedonians to have played in the Prem, and only 1 has scored.

[SvN]

I can only think of keepers from Poland

[niko_cee]

Yeah Poland feels like it should be someone you've heard of. If it's a single goal merchant, has Juktiewicz (? - the Birmingham one) ever played/scored in the Premier League?

[thommo]

Jutkiewicz has played 28 games in the Prem, but never scored. The top scorer from Poland only has 2 goals.

[Shindig]

I've put a list of Macedonians in front of me and the only name I recognise is Sasa Ilic. I don't think he's scored a wind-assisted goal kick.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Macedonia would be that bloke who lobbed Seaman from a corner.

[Shindig]

Just watched that. Paul Scholes on the post. :D

[SincereTheRebel]

Ive looked up the missing names for North Macedonia, Poland and Saint Kitts and Nevis. I would never have got them.

[thommo]

Macedonia would be that bloke who lobbed Seaman from a corner.

The player you're thinking of did score in English football, but it was for West Brom in the Championship. The clubs each player has played for are as follows:

North Macedonia - Barnsley
Poland - Southampton
Saint Kitts and Nevis - Crystal Palace

[SincereTheRebel]

If i didnt already know the answers. With the clue of palace, I would have said Peter Ndouvu* but i think he was from Zimbabwe

[SvN]

There's also the fact that he never played for Palace, but he fits perfectly otherwise.

[CJay]

Jutkiewicz has played 28 games in the Prem, but never scored. The top scorer from Poland only has 2 goals.

Bednarek?

[thommo]

Bednarek?

Correct! One of only 3 Polish goalscorers in the Premier League.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Oh, Georgi Hristov for Macedonia. Think it was him who famously called all our women ugly.

[The Merse]

The only St Kitts players I can think of are Kevin Francis and Adam Newton, the former surely didn't play in the Prem, so I'm guessing the latter might've got one in his few run outs for West Ham?

Edit - missed the Palace bit... Don't think either played for Palace. Leon McKenzie played for Jamaica I think... but maybe I got that wrong?

[thommo]

Oh, Georgi Hristov for Macedonia. Think it was him who famously called all our women ugly.
Correct, 4 goals in his single season in the Prem. Just one to get.


The only St Kitts players I can think of are Kevin Francis and Adam Newton, the former surely didn't play in the Prem, so I'm guessing the latter might've got one in his few run outs for West Ham?
Neither of those, I'm afraid. The player I'm looking for also played for Millwall and Colchester.

[The Merse]

Ended up looking him up and assume you mean Port Vale rather than Millwall (who he never played for). I remember him well from Palace and Vale, in fairness but would never have recalled him in this context.

[thommo]

If you mean Sagi Burton, he made 2 PL appearances but never scored. There is still another Kittitian who scored in the Prem.

[CJay]

Ah the name is on the top of my tongue. Was he a utility player?

[The Merse]

If you mean Sagi Burton, he made 2 PL appearances but never scored. There is still another Kittitian who scored in the Prem.

Ah ok, took his goal for Palace as being in the Prem but that makes sense as I'm sure he only really got a game when they were in D1.

[thommo]

Ah the name is on the top of my tongue. Was he a utility player?

It's a little before my time, but he's described as a midfielder on every site I look at.
