Bingo.
Four remain.
Rolando Bianchi.
Well done @Guybrush.
Three to go, I've only actually heard of one of them.
Man City, Man United, Arsenal, Everton and Liverpool each have one of these players in their current squad. Chelsea have two. Spurs have none.
I was going to say World Cup winners, but, in finding out, I've just been confronted with a picture of Juan Mata without his beard, and now I don't like football anymore.
Infuriating question. I've tried all sorts of things. Thought I had it with former Bolton players, but no.
First thought was Golden Boy winners, but that would skew heavily towards the Manchester clubs. It'll be something daft like players named Danny.
I was going to say homosexuals right up until none for Spurs.Originally Posted by dino
Players over a certain height? Say six four?
Kompany, Zlatan, Mertesacker, Joel, Courtois, Matic. Falls down on Liverpool.
United also have Fellaini
Played in Champions League finals with other clubs?
United have Mata and Pogba.
Everton don't have anyone, do they?
I thought Deolefeu (or whatever) might have snuck in somehow. Forgot Mata was still at Chelsea back then.
Deulofeu is at Milan.
Players with brothers who also play football? United have Pogba, Chelsea have Hazard and Batshuayi, Everton have Lukaku, City have Toure, Arsenal have Xhaka, and Liverpool must have someone.
EDIT - Can't be it. Matip has a brother and I know from FM that Lovren has one too.
I reckon that's it.
Players with internationals in their immediate family?
Man City - Kolo Toure
Man Utd - Mathias Pogba
Arsenal - Taulent Xhaka
Everton - Jordan Lukaku
Liverpool - Mike Origi
Chelsea - Thorgan Hazard, Marcos Alonso Pena
EDIT: Matip ruins that, unless there's another Chelsea player with an international brother?
Could it be La Masia alumni?
Chelsea: Fabregas / Pedro
Arsenal: Bellerin
Everton: Deulofeu
Not sure on the other three mind.
Genuinely thought this was you being funny. Turns out he's a real person.
One of you got close.
Footballing dads?
Not family related.
Won the Champions League with another club?
Liverpool - Sturridge
United - Mata
City - Toure
Chelsea - Pedro / ?
Arsenal - Cech
Everton - ?
Maybe not.
Copa America winners?
Nope and nope.
I'm not going to do the whole league, but Southampton have two and Hull have none.
Players whose national team have 3 vowels or less in when spelt in anglicised Thai.
If this is shit I'm going to be fuming.
Who got close, if it doesn't give it away too much?
I think it's gettable.
Four of the players had this happen in 2014, one in 2011, one in 2013 and one in 2015.
Players whose former clubs won the title the season after they left?
Nope.
There is a red herring in there, by the way.
UEFA team of the year members?
Nah, colder.
I can PM the answer if anyone wants. Maybe it's trickier than I thought.
Players who have been sold by Pep Guardiola?
Romeu/Hojbjerg at Southampton
Touré at City
Fabregas and dunno at Chelsea
Very warm indeed.
Danny Dichio?
Sold by former managers and now being managed by said managers?
Must be this, Mata at United, Can (?) at Liverpool, not sure who Puel has flogged to the south coast though. Maybe not.
Nope. Bit of not seeing the wood for the trees going on.
Mata and Romeu are two of the players.
Former Chelsea players?
People sold by Mourinho at Chelsea?
Cech at Arsenal
Mata at United
Romeu/Bertrand at Saints
De Bruyne at City
Sturridge at Liverpool (not a Mourinho sale, actually)
Chelsea: David Luiz, Nemanja Matic
United: Mata
City: De Bruyne
Liverpool: Sturridge
Arsenal: Cech
Everton: Lukaku
Southampton: Romeu, Bertrand
United - Mata
Liverpool - Sturridge
Arsenal - Cech
Chelsea - Matic, Luiz
Everton - Lukaku
City - De Bruyne
I'm annoyed I didn't get this earlier, as I thought it was players that have been sold and re-signed (thought Pogba would be the United one).
Here's one. Jimmy's favourite stat.
Name the top 20 assist makers in the Premier League era. Totals range from 131 to 50.
edit-forget that!
To think I saw Fraser Forster and Olufela Olomola for Southampton and briefly thought I'd cracked that it was alliterative names.
Oh shit. Forget that. Different sites have wildly different totals.
