Tomasson's being that hilariously bad penalty and sliced rebound against Cameroon(?).

I've been team mates with three different Ballon D'or winners.

I've been to two major international tournament semi finals

I've won Europe's secondary club competition but only ever made it to the semi final of the champions league.

Who am I?

-james-

I've also never won a league title outside of my home country.

I think it's a Dutchman and Cocu came in mind first.

I'm going to have a dart here and say Momo Sissoko. I'm not sure he's there but I think he's close.

No to both.

Jimmy Floyd

Is that precisely two semi-finals, or two at least semi-finals?

-james-
20-03-2017, 05:52 PM
Precisely two.

Jimmy Floyd
20-03-2017, 05:53 PM
Could have worded that better. Is it two semi-final exits, or two occasions when they went to at least the semis.

-james-
20-03-2017, 05:54 PM
Oh right, yeah. Two semi final exits.

GS

Someone who's played for AC Milan and Chelsea and is either Brazilian, Spanish or Italian.

John
23-03-2017, 06:18 PM
A Spaniard with that career path is overwhelmingly likely to have played with Sergio Ramos.

If Maicon was part of the 2002 World Cup squad, which I doubt, then it's him.

Adamski
23-03-2017, 06:38 PM
Can't see that. He'd have been about 18.

Adamski

They may have been right with the tweet.

Jimmy Floyd
23-03-2017, 07:44 PM
There are limited numbers of World Cup winners so it should be easy to disprove.

John
23-03-2017, 08:09 PM
The tweet probably is right, meaning whoever wrote the question put some serious work into being a prick.

Never playing in Germany rules out the entire German squad aside from Mustafi, who's ruled out on all other criteria. Never playing with Ramos rules out the Spanish winners. The Italian winners all hung around in Italy or played under Ancelotti, aside from Grosso who's ruled out by Mourinho.

Thinking about it specifying that the player wasn't English before saying they've won a World Cup is a fairly good sing it's a troll.

Danny
23-03-2017, 09:04 PM
Thought it was Belletti but apparently he was at Chelsea under Ancelotti.

John
23-03-2017, 09:07 PM
And Barcelona with Messi.

Danny
23-03-2017, 09:20 PM
True.

No way this thing can be real.

SvN
23-03-2017, 09:28 PM
Having done 30 minutes of research, there's no way it's real. Kaka is the killer - he's only played for a few clubs, and 10 years of his playing time is ruled out by Ancelotti and Ramos. There's noone in his 2013 spell that meets the criteria either.

Edit - and none of the Brazilians from 2002 fit.

Adamski
23-03-2017, 09:31 PM
Research :D fuck sake.

Thought it could have been Alex but Ancelotti kills that.

Max Power
23-03-2017, 09:57 PM
It can't be true unless one of the 'clues' is like a trick. Like he "played with Kaka" in a fucking charity match or something.

Shindig
23-03-2017, 10:49 PM
So it's probably a Brazilian like Maicon or somebody.

SvN
23-03-2017, 10:53 PM
Like I said, none of the 2002 Brazillians fit.

Shindig
23-03-2017, 10:58 PM
Maybe some Milan tosser, then. Or it could just be some Irishman, due to the tweet origins.

John
23-03-2017, 11:02 PM
An Irish World Cup winner. That'll be it.

SvN
23-03-2017, 11:03 PM
Anyone who played with Kaka at Milan also played under Carlo. And noone fits from his loan spell.

There's no answer.

Disco
23-03-2017, 11:07 PM
It'll be some bullshit like the World Cup being in tiddlywinks or something.

SvN
23-03-2017, 11:11 PM
If the answer is something like "He won the u20 world cup" or "He played with Kaka at Soccer Aid" then it's not a real answer as far as I'm concerned.

Disco
23-03-2017, 11:18 PM
Could it be someone who was part of the coaching staff?

John
23-03-2017, 11:24 PM
If there's someone from the 1994 Brazil squad who lasted long enough to play with Kaka and Robinho and then became part of Mourinho's coaching team then that'd almost certainly be your guy, but I think at this point it's safe to assume either the question is a noise up or whoever made it has ballsed up one of the criteria.

SvN
23-03-2017, 11:27 PM
If he was a coach he wasn't managed by Mourinho.

John
23-03-2017, 11:31 PM
The coaches are still technically managed by the manager. I'm looking at ways to skirt the language so an answer can be provided and I can get on with my life.

I bet Gudjonsen is up there too, given how sparsely populated Iceland is

-james-
26-03-2017, 10:15 AM
Georgia has at least one in Kaladze but I'm not sure that's small enough. I bet there's a Caribbean nation in there but I can't think of any off the top of my head.

Edit: I was in the reply box for too long. I'm sure Iceland will be one, it's only about 250k or something.

ItalAussie
26-03-2017, 10:18 AM

Not small enough.

Iceland is one of the three though,

Dwight Yorke for Trinidad & Tobago?

SvN

Can't believe I didn't think of Yorke.

Given you're asking for the countries rather than the players, are we unlikely to get the 3rd?

ItalAussie
26-03-2017, 10:34 AM
Trinidad and Tobago is another one. The largest of the three countries, in fact.

The third is a little (lot) more obscure. Nobody's got it yet. I can supply the year, if a clue is needed.

EDIT: I think Northern Ireland is #4 on this particular list.

Zanetti just sneaks in with 15 while the real madrid bunch, didnt really win enough trophies to make the list. Roberto Carlos was there before them all, and he won 11 trophies while in madrid. Beckham won 7 trophies after the year 2000 and 10 before 1999

As the dutch league has been excluded, it means the dutch guys such as van bommel didnt win enough in leagues that count.
