Trivia Thread

[niko_cee]

I was thinking goals by teenagers where Brighton led the league by miles, U21 a bigger field obviously.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Sterling?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Lukaku?

[Jimmy Floyd]

Mason Greenwood maybe? And of course his colleague in the footballing and raping worlds, Cristiano Ronaldo.

[Waffdon]

Dele Alli
Gabriel Jesus
Gabby Agbonlahor
Daniel Sturridge
Arjen Robben
Nicolas Anelka

[thommo]

Saka, Rashford, Martinelli.

Sterling?

Lukaku?

Mason Greenwood maybe? And of course his colleague in the footballing and raping worlds, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Martinelli was last season and Saka the season before. Lukaku did it in consecutive seasons at different clubs (WBA and Everton). Ronaldo was a little older once he started banging them in.


Dele Alli
Gabriel Jesus
Gabby Agbonlahor
Daniel Sturridge
Arjen Robben
Nicolas Anelka

Alli also managed it in consecutive seasons. Anelka was close but Owen pipped him to it.

[Ben]

Was Shearer U21 in the first season?

Robbie Fowler at least once after that.

[Raoul Duke]

Theo Walcott?

[wullie]

Chris Sutton?

[thommo]

Was Shearer U21 in the first season?

Robbie Fowler at least once after that.
Shearer was 22 in the first PL season. Fowler is on the list twice, with the two best seasons for a player 21 or under (25 & 28 goals).


Theo Walcott?

Chris Sutton?
Sutton also managed 25 goals in 93-94 for Norwich.

[Gray Fox]

Calvert-Lewin 20/21?

Unsure if he was too old then though as I feel he's been around for a good 10 years already.

[thommo]

Calvert-Lewin 20/21?

Unsure if he was too old then though as I feel he's been around for a good 10 years already.

16 goals for him but yes, too old unfortunately. The player in question is also an England international.

[niko_cee]

Foden?

[thommo]

Foden?

That's the one.

Of the remaining players, only 3 are not full internationals.

[niko_cee]

Didn't Teddy Sheringham score a bundle for Forest in the first season of what we now know to be football? He was probably too old, but he must have been young at some point.

[Ben]

He was at least 25 at that point.

[Boydy]

How old was Alan Smith when he was good for Leeds?

[thommo]

Didn't Teddy Sheringham score a bundle for Forest in the first season of what we now know to be football? He was probably too old, but he must have been young at some point.

He was at least 25 at that point.

He was indeed 25, and that was actually the LAST season before football was actually invented. He then went on to top the scoring charts in the first ever PL season.


How old was Alan Smith when he was good for Leeds?
Smith managed 11 PL goals in 2000-01, but that was the Owen era.

[Waffdon]

Benteke for 2011/12? Or is that too early for him joining Villa

[thommo]

Benteke for 2011/12? Or is that too early for him joining Villa

He was at Genk that season. 11/12 is another foreign import who made a big impact.

[Waffdon]

Or Super Mario for that year? Might be too early again.

[thommo]

Or Super Mario for that year? Might be too early again.

Not too early, that was the year of the City title win with Balotelli's assist. 13 goals in what was actually his 2nd season in English football.

[thommo]

Just realised I completely forgot to finish this one off - looking for the top goalscorer who was 21 or under in each PL season. Remaining seasons and clubs they played for are below:

1992-93 - Crystal Palace
1996-97 - Leicester City
1999-2000 - Leeds United
2001-02 - Aston Villa
2002-03 - Liverpool
2003-04 - Portsmouth
2008-09 - Arsenal
2009-10 - Liverpool
2014-15 - Tottenham Hotspur

[Ben]

Chris Armstrong
Emile Heskey
Michael Bridges
Harry Kane

[thommo]

Chris Armstrong
Emile Heskey
Michael Bridges
Harry Kane

All correct, Bridges was the one that surprised me the most, 19 goals for him in 1999-2000.

[Ben]

He was quality before his knee injury.

[Ben]

The Villa one must have been Vassell, although their 01-02 squad had Angel and Dublin so I imagine it can't have been many goals.

[thommo]

The Villa one must have been Vassell, although their 01-02 squad had Angel and Dublin so I imagine it can't have been many goals.

It is - 12 goals for Vassell. Angel also managed 12 and Dublin only 4, mainly from the bench.

[niko_cee]

Baros?

[thommo]

Baros?

Good shout, 9 goals for Liverpool in 2002-03. Still looking for Portsmouth 03-04, Arsenal 08-09 and Liverpool 09-10.

[Gray Fox]

Those be the doom and gloom years. David N'gog? I remember being lumbered with him up front.

[thommo]

Those be the doom and gloom years. David N'gog? I remember being lumbered with him up front.

Correct! A lean year for youngsters, he topped the charts for U-21s with just 5 goals in 2009-10.

[Ben]

Yakubu? :D

[Gray Fox]

I only ever remember him for a goal against United which I'm sure he nearly fucked up and then being mobbed by Reina.

[thommo]

Yakubu? :D

Yup. :D 16 goals in his first PL season. Just the Arsenal player to get.

[John Arne]

Aged 28.

[Waffdon]

Fabregas or Bendtner

[Jimmy Floyd]

James Wiltshire.

[thommo]

Fabregas or Bendtner

Bendtner is correct, with 9 goals in 08-09. Full list below:

1992-93 – Chris Armstrong, Crystal Palace, 15 goals
1993-94 – Chris Sutton, Norwich City, 25 goals

[Baz]

Those be the doom and gloom years. David N'gog? I remember being lumbered with him up front.


Correct! A lean year for youngsters, he topped the charts for U-21s with just 5 goals in 2009-10.

:wtf:

[Manc]

Can you name the three (former) players to have played over 400 PL games without earning an international cap?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Sylvain Distin.

[Ben]

Sylvain Distin
Mark Noble

[Manc]

Distin & Noble are correct.

[SvN]

Kevin Nolan

[Manc]

Full house.

[Manc]

Which three current PL players were signed directly from MLS?

[Ben]

Petrovic (Chelsea keeper)

[John Arne]

Slonina (Chelsea keeper)

[thommo]

Almiron.

[Manc]

Petrovic (New England) & Almiron (Atlanta) are correct.

[Baz]

Petrovic (Chelsea keeper)


Slonina (Chelsea keeper)
:lol:

[thommo]

Matt Turner?

[Manc]

Turner picked up by Forest from Arsenal.

[John Arne]

Petrovic (New England) & Almiron (Atlanta) are correct.

Slonina (Chelsea keeper) is kinda correct, too. Although he doesn't actually play in the premier league, he's technically a PL player signed from the MLS. Don't make me throw a shoe over the roof to prove it.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

He said CURRENT.

Slonina (which also means pig fat, similar to Ukrainian salo, in Polish) is out on loan and thus not a current PL player.

[Manc]

Minus points to JA for doubling down.

[John Arne]

Scum, the lot of you.

[thommo]

Jhon Duran, at Villa.

[Manc]

Well played.

[SincereTheRebel]

Arteta

[Manc]

Can you name the first player to win the European Cup with two different teams?

[SincereTheRebel]

This is the champions league we are talking here?

Clarence Seedorf
Desailly

[Manc]

The European Cup, Sincy. 1955 onwards.

[Shindig]

Di Stefano?

[SincereTheRebel]

Platini
Eusebio

[wullie]

Belodedici is the earliest one I know, guessing he's about 20 years after the actual answer though

[SincereTheRebel]

Guilit
Deschamps

[Adramelch]

Di Stefano only really played for Real so doubt it's him.

[thommo]

Belodedici is the earliest one I know, guessing he's about 20 years after the actual answer though

I'm sure this is right - vaguely remember seeing this stat somewhere.

[Manc]

Belodedici is correct. He won with Steaua Bucureșt in1986 and then Red Star Belgrade in 1991.

[SincereTheRebel]

Now all the squads have been officially confirmed, name all the players who have more than 70 caps going to the euros


207 - Portugal - Cristiano Ronaldo































































070 - Romania - Nicolae Stanciu

[Spikey M]

Rip Harry Maguire.

[Adramelch]

Xhaka
Shaqiri
Sommer
Rodriguez

Probably a few more in that squad, but those are the only ones I could think of.

Also Arnautovic (assuming he's in the Austria squad).

[Spikey M]

Are France still somehow using Lori's? If so, him.
Giroud

Stones

Croatia have quite a few. That could explain the success over the past decade.

No more for Poland

Is Darijo Srna still playing?

No, he's 42. Slowly turning into my dad who reckons Fergie only left Man U last year.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

No more for Poland

Bednarek and Milik aren't going?

Surely they are and I'd be FLABBERGASTED if they hadn't got enough to sneak onto the list.

[SincereTheRebel]

Bednarek has 57 and Milik isnt going. Dont question me again.

I gave Dubravka a look. Shockingly, just the 48 caps.

[Adramelch]

Still probably the goalkeeper with the most caps for them. They've been rotating them like there's no tomorrow.

[Baz]

Can we take a minute to recognise that Ronaldo’s 207 caps is crazy.

[Waffdon]

Bruno Fernandes, Calhanoglu, Kjaer, Schmeichel, Hojberg, Soucek, Coufal, Akanji, Embolo, Zuber

[Dan]

I’ve spent about an hour trying to remember Domagoj Vida’s name. There’s probably still more Croatians too. Have we done Kramaric yet?

Three Danes? Are Thomas Delaney & Daniel Wass in the squad? Simon Kjaer must be way up there if he’s in too. Andreas Christensen, Youssef Poulsen, & Kasper Dolberg come to mind as well.

Yarmolenko, Malinovskyi or Zinchenko for Ukraine, Djimsiti for Albania & Ricardo Rodriguez for Switzerland. Seeing Ilicic is on there has reminded me of Jasmin Kurtic.

Don’t see Serbia on the list but surely Dusan Tadic is up there? Same goes for de Vrij. Danilo Pereira seems like the only Portuguese lad old enough to be the last one standing for them.

Malinowski? Atalanta geezer

[Adramelch]

It's the high Slovakia one that's really baffling. Thomas Muller level of international caps, in a not so minor country football-wise (as opposed to say Georgia) and I can't even come close to who it could be. Everyone I'm thinking off has already been mentioned and they are either lower in that list or not active any more.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Just looked him up, think I've heard of him at some point but my word he's been soldiering on for a while.

[Manc]

Which player has been awarded the MOTM in both the World Cup & Euro finals?

[SincereTheRebel]

Iniesta

[Shindig]

The only other Slovak I know is Marek Hamsik.

[thommo]

Nobody under the age of 18 has featured so far on the opening weekend of the Premier League season. But there have been 24 players under the age of SEVENTEEN to have played a Premier League game; can you name them all?

Rooney

Jeffers

Owen

Aaron Lennon

Theo Walcott

Vaughan, the Everton lad.

Vaughan also scored on his debut; he is the youngest player to ever score in the PL.

A clue or two for the remaining players - the clubs they were playing for and when they played:

Fulham, May 2007
Everton, August 2008
Aston Villa, March 2015
West Ham United, August 2015
Sheffield Wednesday, February 1996
Manchester United, May 2017

Is Baxter one of the other Everton ones?

Reece Oxford for West Ham

Gomes for United? Small man anyway, made it look even worse

[Dan]

Spurs in May must be Mikey Moore, right?

[Ben]

Middlesbrough one will be Andy Campbell.

[John Arne]

Fulham one will be Briggs.

thommo seems like we give up :lol:

Adding a new one. Cole Palmer scored his 12th Prem penalty at the weekend. Setting a Premier League record for the most penalties taken without ever missing.

Chelsea FC posted this on their site “Cole Palmer set a new Premier League record on Sunday as he scored his 12th consecutive penalty, a feat no player had previously achieved in the competition.” Leaving out the important “without missing” qualifier.

10 players scored 12 in a row before Palmer did it. Who are they?

[niko_cee]

Le Tissier.
Cantona.
Shearer.

[Manc]

JWP
Toney
Jorginho

[Ben]

Kane
Lampard
Baines
Noble

[niko_cee]

12 is a lot, 12 in the league in what 50-odd games is mad for Palmer. Would the likes of Irwin or Unsworth have ever taken that many? Don't remember them missing much.

[Ben]

Yakubu

He was great at penalties but not sure he would have taken 12. If he did, he probably scored them all.

[SvN]

Irwin didn't take that many because he was second choice behind Bruce and then Cantona.

Beardsley
Julian Dicks
Sheringham

[Shindig]

He broke Yaya Toure's record, according to the BBC the other day.

Anyway, back to teenagers. Was Lewis Miley that young when we brought him out? EDIT: Newcastle's not on the list so no.

Salah has missed some biggies in his time. A couple at least for Egypt, and feels like a few for Liverpool as well, though the only one I can actually name at this time is the one vs Senegal that saw them miss out on Qatar.

Jamaica - Dominica - Honduras
Ireland - Namibia - Iceland
Ethiopia - Myanmar - BLANK

My two wrong answers were Bermuda for coastline over 1km and in North America (how is that wrong? even on their thing it says it has a coastline of 180km and is NA) and Central African Republic for the green flag as I read the category as MORE than 7 letters long.

Also, Mexico being the lowest for over 40 medals in NA is annoying because I instantly dismissed them as being one of the top 3 most obvious.

Edit: I'm an idiot regarding why it was wrong...

Mexico being best answer for top left is quite lol.

[Shindig]

89.9 Had to confirm North America is apparently no longer just USA and Canada.

One thing I get from this game is how many big nations go under the radar.

[niko_cee]

Yeah. There are two countries in North America, but I guess CONCACAF is what they are angling at.

[SincereTheRebel]

Had a shocker.


Capital is not the most populated city - I went down the route of Australia as the capital is Canberra and isn't the most popular place there. Clearly, I was over thinking.

I had 4 of the most popular answers, that was a tough one.

I could have done better with EU nation with two coloured flag but it's hard not to go for Poland/Cyprus if they fit in categories.

[Pepe]

Mexico has been North America for at least as far as I have been alive.

[Serj]

Yeah, Mexico plus the Central American states plus Caribbean is always being taught as part of North America here as well.

[Pepe]

Not my best effort.

Central America, although that admittedly isn't a continent if that's the angle. Think I did alright today although had to accept a few common answers.

[niko_cee]

Does it not have a little castle or something on it? I tried that as well and then had to go for something safer.

Some text and a man riding a horse that is fucking a dragon? in black in the cross.

Harsh to be done by that.

Central America, although that admittedly isn't a continent if that's the angle. Think I did alright today although had to accept a few common answers.

In Geography, we were taught that most of Mexico was in North America, except for a tiny sliver that belongs to Central America, which was treated as separate.

I did the exact same mistake. I haven't gotten many wrong so far, but the game does seem to let you have one mistake and still get a full grid. I'm currently doing the ones I missed and got a 127.3 from todays.

The five coloured flags are bullshit as they seemingly accept any flag where the emblem makes up most of the colours. Thought I'd done very well in that section, but since the flags actually all have five colours and no emblems, the points weren't great.

Edit: 137,6 & 278.9 from the weekend ones 😕

Cameroon, Tuvalu, Central African Republic
Burkino Faso, Cape Verde, Comoros
Niger, French Southern Territories, Seychelles

[niko_cee]

At least one of them has to have been you gaming the drop down menus.

Ironically I tried to get one of those territories by its proper name but it wasn't available, and then the penguins turned out to not have any GDP figures available for them.

[Waffdon]

The only low score other than Comoros (not that difficult if you watch AFCON) was Cameroon which makes no sense. The only explanation can be everyone put that as the French speaking country.

Half the game is naming small islands in Oceania, Caribbean and Africa which isn’t too difficult if you play Sporcle, GeoGuesser etc)

Knowing what touches the Eurasian Steppe or is apparently in the European Union is a different story
