Wullie Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 How few players can you come up with to encompass first team appearances for all 20 current Premier League clubs? I've got 5 players who between them have played for all 20 clubs - 5 is actually quite easy but is it possible to get it down to 4? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 How few players can you come up with to encompass first team appearances for all 20 current Premier League clubs? I've got 5 players who between them have played for all 20 clubs - 5 is actually quite easy but is it possible to get it down to 4? Good one. I take it that they don't have to be currently playing in the league/still playing? There are a few obvious players that come to mind straight away.

Wullie Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Nah they can be retired but it's pretty easy to do with recent players. We've managed 4 covering 19 clubs but not 20. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I think I can do it in 4 if loans are included. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Yep loans included, go on... Our 4 in 19 are Crouch, Cottee, Sinclair and Andy Cole, missing out only Hull. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 My mainstays are Routledge, Andy Cole, Nick Barmby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switch Cottee for Barmby and you can do it missing out only on West Ham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Ferdinand: Spurs, Leicester, West Ham, QPR and Newcastle Anelka: Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool and West Brom If that helps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Aye, I've tried with both of them, but it goes nowhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaizero Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Yeah, seems the remaining clubs are killer when it comes to other players. Shit. Should not be spending time on this right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Crouch and Cole fill 12 clubs between them with no overlap, so they're the best starting point that I've found. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Crouch and Cole fill 12 clubs between them with no overlap, so they're the best starting point that I've found. Definitely, I think Barmby has to be in there for the fact that noone has played for Hull. Despite that he still seems like a weak link. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Could spin this around - put together a first eleven (4-4-2, 4-3-3 or 4-5-1) that covers the mosts clubs who have at any point been in the premier league. Or a journeymans special if you like. I'd start with Given - Blackburn, Sunderland, Newcastle, City, Villa, Middlesborough Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Kevin Kilbane does West Brom, Everton, Sunderland and Hull but his is not as useful coverage as Scott Sinclair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
