    Gerrard,
    smicer
    alonso (He missed peno and scored rebound right)
    Sherringham,
    Solksjaer,
    campbell.
    crespo
    </end easy ones> :D

    begin guesses:
    Sheva?
    MacManaman
    Morientes
    Hamann (for dortmund)
    desailly (for either marseille/ac milan)
    Christophe Dugarry

    p.s does the question count for just champions league, or old european cup?

    Mendieta
    McManaman
    Ravenelli
    Litmanen

    Missing 8 or so... Other guesses - Desailly, Hamann, Vialli, Gullit, Riedle (for some reason all I could think of was that other donkey that was with Liverpool from Germany - Sean Dundee!)

    Champions League and old European Cup.

    That's 10 you have. There is some other "easy" one's too.

    Correct On Gullit, Riedle, Ravenelli, Litmanen and Mendieta. that's 15 so far lads.

    Incidently, penalties scored in the 120 minutes of play count.

    EDIT: Kluivert is correct Imhof. That's 16.

    No.....I didn't see that. My bad, Mendieta is correct, that's 16 now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max


    Was it crouch or kuyt. One of them scored a late goal when they lost to milan.

    And belleti against the g00ners. Just remember that when tinkering with my fantasy team. :D (or was that given as an own goal?)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,122 ✭✭✭Imhof Tank


    Didn't Anelka score for Real in the same final when McMenamen scored??


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max


    Im pretty sure i remember sky sports news saying he only scored 2 when he was at real. I dont think he scored in that game (could be wrong).

    Some further guesses:

    Jon Dahl Tomasson
    Dennis Bergkamp
    Vialli


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,727 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    Kluivert or Gills de Bilde?

    Damn forgot he was playing then


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭Mad_Max


    Can we get a hint on the 20th OP. Trevor Francis is a great shout, wouldn't have got him.

    That would mean the only ones from that time would be liverpool/forest players.
    Phil Neal was one scorer i remember but dont think he played in premiership. Daglish too. I think Robertson was the other forest scorer.

    Maybe there is only 19 so??


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,193 ✭✭✭pd101


    Did Villa win the European Cup around that time as well?

    It wouldn't be Ivan Campo at all would it?

    Real and Bolton


  • Registered Users Posts: 456 ✭✭sgt.bilko


    are we talking about the premiership in its current format or the old 1st Division?

    Trevor Trancis in 1979
    Alan Kennedy for the 'pool in '81
    Phil Neal in '84

    Trevor Francis in 1979 for Notts Forest. Played in premiership with Sheffield Wednesday I think. :D

    Phil Neal, Alan Kennedy didn't play in premier league AFAIK.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 65 ✭✭fitzcarraldo


    Andriy Shevchenko?

    Last years scorers, Ronaldo and Lampard


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,691 ✭✭✭CR 7


    yeah, ronaldo and lampard, from last season. I can't believe no one guessed that yet. :-)


  • Registered Users Posts: 128 ✭✭nehemiah


    I'm guessing the above is a joke, as the thread before this was open before the 2008 final:). Otherwise you could add Deco too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,240 ✭✭✭hussey


    the original quiz was 2008 before last year's final

  • Registered Users Posts: 260 ✭✭portumna


    There are only 19 before last years final. Lamps, Deco and Ronaldo make 22. I've gone through every scorer in every year and check their playing record and can't find another.
