Two of them have been named so far

[Madon]

Ray Clemence played for Scunthorpe didn't he, not sure if he captained England though?

[oldjamfan1]

All three have been named now, but not by the same person.....

[RoverNev]

Keegan, Clemence, Botham?

[oldjamfan1]

Keegan, Clemence, Botham?

Correct, well done

[RoverNev]

Correct, well done

Tough one. Clemence was, surprisingly the hardest.

Guess its my turn for a question then? Can anyone name me the 8 Spanish players to have Premier League Winners Medals?

When that question first got asked, many years ago, it was always Botham that caught people out (pun intended)

Fabregas, Azpilicueta, Diego Costa, Yordi Cruyff, Gerard Piqué, Jesus Navas, Raul Garcia, David Silva?

[RoverNev]

Fabregas, Azpilicueta, Diego Costa, Yordi Cruyff, Gerard Piqué, Jesus Navas, Raul Garcia, David Silva?

Yordi Cruyff and Raul Garcia no. Others are correct. I know I said 8 but there's actually 10, 4 more to get.

[windymiller7]

David De Gea

[RoverNev]

David De Gea

Yep. 3 more to go.....

[windymiller7]

I'll be honest I've just Googled the others as I was struggling to think of them (De Gea didn't need much brainpower) - if people are honest and don't cheat (unlike me), there's 2 quite tough ones.

Good question Nev.

[AJW]

Reyes for arsenal and Javi Garcia city ???

Good question Nev.

I just thought of Del Horno for Chelsea (although I'm not 100 % sure he played for them in one of their title-winning seasons) as well. And possibly Fernando Torres too? And I might be mixing up Raul Garcia with someone else. Didn't City have a mediocre Spanish central midfielder a season or so back?

[RoverNev]

Reyes for arsenal and Javi Garcia city ???

Great shouts!! Just one more.....
