Football trivia

[FestiveJack]

How many nationalities have entered the Premier League's 100 Goals Club? Also, name the nations, because why not.

Andy Cole, Shearer, Lamps, Rooney, Fowler, Owen, Les Ferdinand and Teddy are all English among others (think these guys with Henry and someone else round out the top 10).

Henry is French.

Did Yorke get over 100? If so that's 3. Drogba makes 4. Robbie Keane is 5.

Matt Le Tissier is technically a Channel Islander, Guernsey? Are we counting Guernsey?

Oh, and either RVP or Jimmy Flloyd had to have at least 100.

So 6, possibly 7?

These 7 and Giggs to make 8.

Someone else can ask a question, that will be undoubtedly less Dutch orientated.

[Colly]

Torres must have 100, he used to be quite good.

Edit: Nope.

[DavidMarrio]

Which English player has played in a Champions League final but never been capped for England?

[Cymbols]

Michael Mancienne?

Actually no, Bertrand?

[FestiveJack]

Is Paul Lambert English?

[DavidMarrio]

Lambert is Scottish, Bertrand has two caps and Mancienne hasn't played in a Champions League final.

[Cymbols]

Neil Mellor? Did he play in 05?

[Pesci]

Jermaine Pennant!

[DavidMarrio]

Bingo, Pennant was the answer.

If it was in the squad for the final than David May, Jonathan Greening and Ross Turnbull would be the 3 other Englishmen

[EddieG]

I was going to say it would probably be someone from 05 or 07.

[FestiveJack]

Surprised Pennant doesn't have a cap considering he was at his height when we were throwing caps at everyone who could kick a ball.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

Answer to mine was 7 since I didn't count Guernsey, so Le Tissier was only included as English.

England (Multiple)

France (Henry / Anelka)

Ivory Coast (Drogba)

Netherlands (van Nistelrooy / Hasselbaink)

Republic of Ireland (Keane)

Trinidad and Tobago (Yorke)

Wales (Giggs)

[Pesci]

I don't have a question and I'm going to bed, first person to post a question wins

[FestiveJack]

Out of the announced World Cup squads (provisional and final) which country has the player born furthest away from that country's capital?

[TroutMaskReplica]

Russia

[brenchill]

USA, since they have German players.

[Colly]

Is it Giuseppe Rossi?

[Thrilla]

The Aussies have a player that was born in Europe.

[FestiveJack]

Thrilla is right.

Dario Vidosic was born in Osijek, now in Croatia.
