This is correct

Is Glen Johnson 04-06?

Love a Glen Johnson sighting

Still some fun names left. Some wonder kids that didn’t hit their ceiling and some journeymen (which is probably why they went to Stoke. One player is still active

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Bojan is in 08-11

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

05 and 07 must be Crouchy

 

[Savant]

05 and 07 must be Crouchy

Three spots, but two names left. One of the names did it for multiple teams. The other one is the player who is still active

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

[Savant]

Yes! And he is back at the same team

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Was 2015-16 the year Michael Owen played 8 games for stoke

Was Madrid the fourth semi finalist in 2005?

He would've been on the Man U finalist team in 2011...

EDIT: nope he played for Stoke in 2012-13. Nuts
