Did Gomes score for Watford from a goal kick or something?
Not Gomes, the Watford player is a very obscure midfielder that only played a handful of Premier League matches.

[Shindig]

Not just any Brazilian, the first to play in the Premier League (apparently).

Just looked it up. Who? is the response I made.

[SincereTheRebel]

West ham - Illshno or something like that? Illinho

[thommo]

West ham - Illshno or something like that? Illinho
You're pretty close. A striker who played for Sochaux and Saint-Etienne before moving to West Ham, scored 4 goals in 11 games in half a season in 2010.

Coventry City - As stated, first Brazilian to play in the PL. Played at Boavista and Benfica before moving to England, and scored 2 goals in 2 seasons after clashing a lot with Strachan.

Watford - Very obscure midfielder, spent most of his career in Brazil. Somehow wound up at Watford where he scored against Blackburn in 2007, before rattling around their reserves for a season and returning to Brazil.

[SvN]

Is wullie around still?

[Shindig]

First google search of that Watford player brings up a news story that he's shagging a 15 year old. Oh, that's not the Brazilian I'm after. :|

[Ian]

Wullie only posts sporadically these days.

This is annoying because I've probably seen the fucker play live. What position was he, Thommo?

[thommo]

Wullie only posts sporadically these days.

This is annoying because I've probably seen the fucker play live. What position was he, Thommo?

He was a forward, also described as a second striker. His goals came against Chelsea and Middlesbrough.

[Shindig]

52 goals in 125 for Benfica. Kiko's wife would know this one.

[Ian]

Alright I googled him and I'd never have got that but the seasons he was at Coventry I'm fairly sure I must have seen him at least once as a sub or something.

I suppose not everybody can be as memorable as Viorel Moldovan.

[thommo]

I'll leave the last 3 open in case anyone can get them till after lunch. I've got a few more of these nationality-based questions to come if that's good for everyone.

[SvN]

Yeah, enjoying these. But there's no chance I'm getting any of the last 3, so I looked them up. Glad I did, as I've never heard of any of them.

Tidy finish from Isaias as Coventry STORMED back from 2-0 down against Chelsea.

There's also a bit of a :drool: pass from Gullit in there.

[niko_cee]

I vaguely recall Isaias being a bit of a lower league CM don, but I might be conflating him with the Three Amigos, who, other than Martinez, I now have no recollection of.

[thommo]

As answered previously, Di Canio is the top Italian goalscorer in the Premier League, with 66 goals. But can you name the other 47 Italians to have scored a goal (in the right end) in the Premier League?

12 games for Silenzi but no goals in the PL.

Doesn't actually surprise me, he's probably one of the worst players of all time in the league.

[thommo]

Man, i should get the point with Alan and Illinho.
I didn't know if you meant the Liverpool youngster Allan with the first guess so didn't give it. But fair play, you were as close as you could get.

Dino Baggio played about 10 minutes in England, didn’t he?

Jorginho does count, but has already been said.


How did Lupoli spend about four years as supposedly the next big thing without ever scoring a goal? :cab:
He scored a few at Championship level on various loan spells. He's apparently still playing in Serie C, and is only 32.

[SincereTheRebel]

Cutrone
Montella

[SincereTheRebel]

Montella and Okaka are correct, but have been said already. There's one player left on the list who scored for Chelsea.

Defender name was something like Fabio de Valleri. Definaly had a Val or Vel in his name. From championship manger. The center midfield was blonde had a Guti type build.

Thats the Guti guy.

[Luca]

Fucking hell. I forgot all about Montella going on loan to Fulham.

Stefano Eranio and Francesco Baiano at Derby back in the day.

Giaccherini

Did Possebon nick one in the useless cunt? I don’t think so...

[SvN]

Nah, he only played once against Newcastle on the opening day.

[Luca]

I don’t think Petrucci ever cracked the first team, let alone score, right?

Paloschi
Ranocchia

[Jimmy Floyd]

Ambrosetti scored one for us but not sure if it was in the league.

Sam Dalla Bona

Bernardo Corradi?

Rolando Bianchi

Grabbi at Blackburn.

[SincereTheRebel]

I don't think I will get any of the remaining 1 goal players. Looking slim

[thommo]

Grabbi at Blackburn.
2 goals for Grabbi in his spell.

The last 4 players scored goals for:

Blackburn Rovers
Blackburn Rovers
Watford

[SincereTheRebel]

The last 4 players scored goals for:

Blackburn Rovers
Watford
Sheffield Wednesday

Carbone has been said already. Im done.

[thommo]

I'll add in some clues for the last 4 then.

3 goals - Blackburn Rovers, defender who is better known for a spell elsewhere in Britain.
1 goal - Blackburn Rovers, ball winning midfielder who moved on a loan spell from Lazio, also spent time with Napoli later in his career.
1 goal - Watford, born in Africa but has represented Italy at youth level, a full back who moved from Bologna.
1 goal - Sheffield Wednesday, very obscure striker who signed on a free from Genoa, and scored on his debut from the bench against Aston Villa in 1998.

[SincereTheRebel]

3 goals - Blackburn Rovers, defender who is better known for a spell elsewhere in Britain.

Britain? So that means Scotland. Was it Albert from rangers? He had a crazy left foot?

[thommo]

It is indeed someone who is well known from a spell in Scotland. Not Albertz though, he was German.

[SincereTheRebel]

Italian defenders in scotland? Only defender I can name is Balde and he was italian.

[Shindig]

The Ghanaian defender?

[SincereTheRebel]

I was supposed to say, not Italian.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Amoruso

[thommo]

Amoruso
Correct, more famous for a 6 year stint at Rangers. The other 3 are very tough, but the African-born Italian who scored for Watford is still playing in the PL.

[wullie]

Slightly late, but I got Isaias on the back of my swanky new Pony home shirt which was immediately followed by him disappearing without a trace.

[The Merse]

I had a mate do the same. He was convinced him and Eoin Jess were going to be world class.

Like most Cov supporters, he also couldn't pronounce Eoin. The tit.

[Ian]

There was one version of CM where Eion Jess was a very good youth player wasn't there? Was it based on that?

[Max Power]

Masina the Watford full back.

[thommo]

Masina the Watford full back.
Correct, nice one. The last 2 are pretty tough, so I'll give it 30 mins and finish it up.

[thommo]

The missing players were Dario Marcolin, of Blackburn Rovers, and Francesco Sanetti, of Sheffield Wednesday. The full list of goalscoring Italians is below:

Baston scored once for Swansea; Bravo didn't score in 5 games when on loan at Leeds.

[SincereTheRebel]

Negredo
Arteta
Nolito
Navas

[thommo]

Negredo
Arteta
Nolito
Navas
Negredo and Nolito have already been answered, but Arteta and Navas are both correct - Arteta near the top with 42 PL goals.

[SvN]

Romeu
Nayim (assuming he played the first PL season)

[thommo]

Romeu
Nayim (assuming he played the first PL season)

Romeu with 4 goals, and Nayim with 3.

The top remaining goalscorer to be guessed scored 14 goals whilst playing for 2 different Premier League clubs.

[niko_cee]

Has anyone said Mata? I see they have.

[Mellberg]

Carles Gil

[Shindig]

Manquillo never got one, did he?

[niko_cee]

Did Arbeloa or Josemi ever sneak a goal for Liverpool?

Ivan Campo?

Pablo Hernandez?

[thommo]

Carles Gil
I remember him scoring a cracking goal away at Leicester in a crazy game.


Manquillo never got one, did he?
He did indeed, scoring once for Sunderland when on loan.


Did Arbeloa or Josemi ever sneak a goal for Liverpool?

Ivan Campo?

Pablo Hernandez?
Campo has been said already, but Arbeloa did score twice in the PL.

[Max Power]

Speaking of cracking goals at Leicester away (:moop:) ... Victor Camarasa.

[thommo]

Speaking of cracking goals at Leicester away (:moop:) ... Victor Camarasa.

Correct, he scored 5 that season for Cardiff.

[Shindig]

Angel Rangel. There was another QPR one I'm thinking of, as well. I don't think he scored but he was I think a Real Madrid reject who joined during their relegation year. Granero?

[Luca]

Granero? Dunno if he scored

[Shindig]

Wikipedia said he had one goal to his name for the club.

[SvN]

Daniel Ayala
Suso
Xisco
Jesse was on loan at Stoke, not sure if he scored
Abel Xavier

Portuguese International Abel Xavier. :D

[thommo]

Angel Rangel. There was another QPR one I'm thinking of, as well. I don't think he scored but he was I think a Real Madrid reject who joined during their relegation year. Granero?

Granero? Dunno if he scored
Both right - 16 players left on the list to get.

[thommo]

Daniel Ayala
Suso
Xisco
Jesse was on loan at Stoke, not sure if he scored
Abel Xavier
Xisco and Jese have both been answered, but Ayala is a new one, and correct - 1 goal for Boro.

[SvN]

Just checked Abel Xavier and he was from Mozambique :D Not quite right, then. Not sure why I thought he was Spanish, probably the X.

[Mellberg]

Played internationally for Portugal though.

[Mellberg]

I remember him scoring a cracking goal away at Leicester in a crazy game.

He did. Grealish scored a screamer too. 2-0 up, lost 3-2. They stormed off and won the league. We didn't play like that again all season and finished 20th. Felt like a turning point for both of us.

Had a £20 with a Leicester fan at work on who would finish higher that season. Well done me :cool:

Juan Pablo Angel

Pablo Hernandez

[SincereTheRebel]

Javi Garci

[SincereTheRebel]

West Ham had a black midfielder who was Spanish but he may have changed to his origin to Africa.

[Shindig]

Oh, I know who it is know. Mikel Merino.

[thommo]

Otto
Garrido
Jordi Gomez
Juan Pablo Angel
Angel was Colombian, and Garrido has already been answered, but Jordi Gomez was the player with 14 goals.


Pablo Hernandez
Already been correctly answered, a few other different Spaniards managed to score for Swansea.


Javi Garci

West Ham had a black midfielder who was Spanish but he may have changed to his origin to Africa.
I think you're thinking of Pedro Obiang, who is now an Equatorial Guinean international.


Oh, I know who it is know. Mikel Merino.
Correct, 1 goal in 17-18.

[SincereTheRebel]

If its not Johnny Otto or Adama Traore for Wolves. Jesus Vallejo is shit and had played for about 8 minutes. Rafa Mir went out on loan. Was it someone before Nuno took over?

[thommo]

Didn't realise Jonny had a second name. Otto is right.

Carlos Cuellar
Ivan Ramis

[SvN]

Didn't realise Jonny had a second name. Otto is right.

I only do because of Fantasy Football. I was seething when this Otto clown was starting ahead of Jonny, until I realised they were the same people.

[thommo]

Carlos Cuellar
Ivan Ramis
Bit busy so didn't get round to updating this over the weekend. Both Cuellar and Ramis were correct which leaves 9 left to guess. I'll add some clues in if anyone wants to try and guess the rest.

3 – (Swansea City) - Centre back with dodgy hair, well known for being laughed at.
2 – (Cardiff City) - Centre back that started with Sevilla, only played 8 games for Cardiff in 2014. Since played for Getafe, in China, and is now at Cadiz.
2 – (West Ham United) - Young international winger that only moved to the Prem in the summer.
2 – (Blackburn Rovers) - Striker who came through the Barcelona youth team before moving to Blackburn. Has since played in Russia and is back in La Liga, with Levante.
2 – (Blackburn Rovers) - A journeyman striker who spent all his career in Spain, apart from this 8 game loan spell with Blackburn. Mainly known for his spell with Zaragoza, he scored against Southampton and Boro in 2002 in the PL, and came on in the League Cup final.
1 – (Wigan Athletic) - Fairly obscure left winger, played most of his career for Almeria, before moving to Wigan in 2011. Scored his only goal against Blackburn.
1 – (West Bromwich Albion) - Spanish international centre back who spent most of his career at Atletico Madrid. Briefly played for Birmingham City after leaving West Brom.
1 – (West Ham United) - Striker who moved on loan from Sevilla in 2007 and scored with his first touch for West Ham against Liverpool.
1 – (Swansea City) - Played as a left winger or attacking midfielder and rose up the divisions with Swansea. After leaving, had a couple of seasons with Brighton and one with Blackpool in the Championship.

[John]

Top one is Chico.

[Mellberg]

Ibanez for Baggies/Blues.

[Manc]

The Wigan player is Crusat.

Ibanez for Baggies/Blues.

The Wigan player is Crusat.
All correct, 6 to get.

[John]

Formals is the only West Ham Spaniard I can think of but I don't think he's a winger, and he isn't that young.

[thommo]

Formals is the only West Ham Spaniard I can think of but I don't think he's a winger, and he isn't that young.

Fornals is correct - for some reason I thought he was a winger, apologies. He has only just turned 24 though, still fairly young.

[John]

Nor is his name Formals. Autocorrect has done me there.

[Max Power]

Ruben Rochina

[Manc]

Orlandi.

[thommo]

Ruben Rochina

Orlandi.

Just 3 left, the Cardiff defender, the journeyman Blackburn striker and the West Ham striker who scored with his first touch.

[SincereTheRebel]

Carlos Marinelli
Stracqualursi's goal against Chelsea was his only one in the Premier League.


Did Vietto get any for Fulham last year?
Just the one - in a rare win, coming from 2-0 down to beat Brighton 4-2 at home, he scored a tap in for our 4th.


Mauro Boselli
Ramiro Funes Mori
The 100% record on guesses goes - Boselli only scored for Wigan in the League Cup.

Formica, Faurlin.

Faurlin had already been said, but Zarate and Formica are both correct also. Clubs that the last 6 players have scored for:

Vivas only scored once for Arsenal, in the League Cup.


Fuentes in his short period as a waste of money at Derby?
Correct, Fuentes was the Argentinian who scored once for Derby. Didn't realise they had to sell him on because he had a forged passport.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Jonathan thingy for West Ham? Lanky guy.

[Max Power]

Derby had a centre forward in their historically bad season that I’m sure was Argentine but can’t remember his name. Vargas maybe?

[The Merse]

Vivas only scored once for Arsenal, in the League Cup.


Correct, Fuentes was the Argentinian who scored once for Derby. Didn't realise they had to sell him on because he had a forged passport.

Yeh it was all a bit lol, remember him being touted as signing of the summer before being a bit meh and then shuffling off. Love the 90's passport issues - we apparently sold Silvinho as his passport was from the same bloke who secured Edu one, the latter having not been able to join for 6 months due to issues with his.

[thommo]

Jonathan thingy for West Ham? Lanky guy.
You're right, Jonathan is his first name. Surname begins with a C.


Derby had a centre forward in their historically bad season that I’m sure was Argentine but can’t remember his name. Vargas maybe?
It is a forward from that season. His surname does begin with V, and I remember him scoring a brace against Fulham up in late March when we also thought we were dead and buried with them.

[Manc]

Calleri.

[thommo]

Calleri.

Calleri was correct. The remaining two Argentinians were Emanuel Villa and Juan Carlos Menseguez. I've got more lists for foreign PL goalscorers, for Germany, Belgium, Nigeria, Denmark, etc. if everyone is ok with some more of the same?
