by Guest Thu Apr 10, 2014 7:48 pm

I found one player that had played in about 96 internationals and scored 25(ish) goals. However, he had not played for hos country for 25 years. Robbie Keane was one I thought of.

I'd thought of him and had a look too.

by Guest Fri Apr 11, 2014 3:37 pm

Nope.

Clue: He's African.

by **Trotters** Fri Apr 11, 2014 3:42 pm

Is he a bleck Efrican or a whaaaht Efrican?

Djemba Djemba is African and played in seven countries. But he's 32 so can't have played for anyone for a quarter century.

by Guest Fri Apr 11, 2014 3:54 pm

I am guessing wasn't with us long?

That's just what his birth certificate said. Very Happy

Black. He certainly didn't stick around for long but - get this - got to play for us in two countries in his very short time spell.

by huwkeene Fri Apr 11, 2014 5:01 pm

So when you say played in seven countries, that's for any team playing a match in any land? Not for clubs from seven different countries?

by Guest Fri Apr 11, 2014 5:04 pm

No, sorry he played for club sides in at least seven countries. And hello Huw! Very Happy

by huwkeene Fri Apr 11, 2014 5:06 pm

Hello.... Billy. Nice to meet you :-)

by Guest Fri Apr 11, 2014 5:09 pm

So difficult

by Guest Fri Apr 11, 2014 5:24 pm

Not Emment Kapengwe then.

by Guest Fri Apr 11, 2014 6:37 pm

Thanks Huw :) Nope not him.

by Guest Fri Apr 11, 2014 8:32 pm

It's not Moustapha Hadji is it?

by Guest Fri Apr 11, 2014 9:05 pm

Haha no!

by Guest Fri Apr 11, 2014 9:34 pm

If you give me ten years I am sure to stumble across the right answer...

I suspect TBE saw him play in a testimonial for Villa once...

Emile Heskey ? Cmon Billy, iv'e got ya on this one Very Happy

by Guest Sat Apr 12, 2014 8:20 pm

Ha! Nope tis not El Bearo Tumblingo.

OK another clue - only played in friendlies as a trialist.

by huwkeene Sat Apr 12, 2014 8:46 pm

I thought he scored on his debut.

by Guest Sun Apr 13, 2014 12:05 am

Nelson Mandela? :)

He did! OK another clue: Frank McAvennie scored the winner in one of his few games for us. In a testimonial...
