pete0 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Probably one or two from the '60s...Charlton/Best etc. Certainly Ronaldo. With it being French I was guessing no one over here would have won it until Cantona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 2) Ronaldo Well done Pete, Cristiano Ronaldo won it 2008 beating Lionel Messi (FC Barcelona) and Fernando Torres (Liverpool) in the final. Probably one or two from the '60s...Charlton/Best etc. Certainly Ronaldo. I'm unsure if that was a geniune guess or you helping Pete but seeing as you mentioned Charlton I will give it to you! Bobby Charlton won it in 1966 beating Eusabio (Benfica) and Franz Beckenbauer (Bayerm Munich). It was close however as Bobby won the award by just one vote.

On the topic of my question marcopaulo has managed to find the two missing players; Dennis Law who won the award in 1964 defeating two Spanish players in the final, Luis Suarez and Amancio and George Best who won the award some years later in 1968 getting more votes than team-mate Bobby Charlton and Yugoslavian Dragan Dzajic. 2 points to you my friend.

Mogsy Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 The only club I can imagine would have had an Italian in it would be Chelsea, arsenal haven't, can't think of any at man utd or Blackburn.

Anyway my mates a mad Chelsea fan and he reckons there wasn't any in when they won the league, so I'm going for a big fat zero as well! I'll be going for a big fat zero too. The only one that came to mind was Gianfranco Zola but I am sure that he was only ever in the squad when they came 2nd under Claudio Ranieri to Manchester United, I think he retired the season that they reached the top. Maybe Carlo Cudicini picked up a winners medal being Petr Cech's number two? But again he might not have played enough games - I'll go with zero. Also; Zoo's Question of the Day Round 3: Who is the Spanish national teams most capped player? Answer: Iker Casillas (127 caps with 0 goals).

rubecula Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Can't remember his name but there was a big defender a few years ago that was one of the dirtiest players I have ever seen.

Zoo Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) Both marcopaulo and c1982 are correct with Iker Casillas. The fanstastic goalkeeper has managed to rack up 127 caps for the national team whilst also captaining his side to Euro 2008 and World Cup 2010 glory and is still playing to this date meaning that his record gets stronger and stronger. He is yet to score for them however, so he's not as good as Tim Howard! He is the most capped player by only 1 game however as his closest rival is Andondi Zubizaretta with 126 caps (Xavi is third with 107 caps, Raul fourth with 102, Puyol fifth with 98, Xabi Alonso sixth with 92, Torres seventh with 91, Hierro eighth with 89 and David Villa and Sergio Ramos are tied to ninth place with 82 caps). Well done to those of you that guessed correctly. Edited January 29, 2012 by Zoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
