The Wordle and its bastard offspring thread

I seem to get around 180-200 each day. There's always a couple that I get 60+ on and it ruins my score.

It’s when they do options where there is only 3/4 answers and it’s always gonna mean a big score somewhere. Suppose doing a Nation x Club for every box would be too easy.

Deliberately didn’t choose Klinsmann for Inter - Bayern as I figured he was at Inter before 1992, but lo and behold when I look at the answers he’s listed as a valid guess. 🤷*♂️

Didn’t think it would be the Spanish one I’d get my lowest score on. The road to single digits continues

I can thank half the board for the Sonny Anderson pick as he was used by loads of folk the other week. And Moriba being an FM wonder kid is only reason I’ve heard of him. Rest were easy enough. Took a risk with Eto’o - Alex Vidal and Coutinho were in my thoughts too but I feel like they were probs slightly more obvious.

Wasted a lot of time as Valencia and Sevilla manager on old CM so here we go. I thought my England and Italy was a bit more knowledgeable than Spain; maybe it is, but the kids are just further away and there are some really low scores (like <1%) for some great players.

Took a bit of time to get myself a good Barcelona/Espanyol one but rattled through this otherwise.

Not even trying this one, Red Bull teams all blur into one and apart from Szobszlai and Fulop the only Hungarian players I can name beat England in the 50s.
