Going to have a World Cup related one for tomorrow or Tuesday where you must name every player who played in the WC while with us.

I wasn't going to include anything before the 1970 World Cup because everyone knows anything before that didn't really count, but we have a lot of famous players who played in ones before. The problem is there's a few players who I doubt anyone will know and it would be unfair to leave them out. Would people like the split between the easier and hard version again and where should it be? It's not really until the 1960 World Cup and before that is really difficult.

Alrighty then.

Tottenham at the World Cup

Every player who's been at the World Cup that was with us at the time. I'm sure I've gotten everyone but it wasn't easy getting the information, so who knows.

Here's the players people are very unlikely to get but I put them in anyway. Unofficial bonus points if anyone gets them without looking.

1962+1958 - England - Maurice Norman
1958 - England - Mel Hopkins
1958 - England - Bobby Smith
1950 - England - Eddie Bailey
1950 - England - Ted Ditchburn

57/70, 81%. Missed one from 2010 and one from 2006 and yeah, the 50s players weren't easy.

20/26 and I wouldn't have got any of the ones I missed if I'd been given a year to finish.

About 100 guesses and 7 minutes later got the final starter......!

Common Names

For this one you need a bit more general football knowledge. You'll see a picture of a non-spurs player who shares the same surname, or one very similar, to a current or past player. For example, if I put a picture up of Curtis Davies, the answer then would obviously been Ben Davies, Simon Davies or Sean Davis. Aly Cissokho = Moussa Sissoko, etc. You need the Tottenham player's full name.

All players, both Spurs and non-Spurs, have played in the Premier League bar one, but you should get him. There's some really easy ones and some difficult ones. There's one in particular that you have to think outside the box with.

I really liked this one, but I was rubbish at it. I got twelve on my own, cheated by using the image source link to get five more, missed one because of my spelling and didn't have a clue on the other two.

We did, and bought him back the next january ? Gio was impossible, I thought he were well out by then.
