WHO AM I. QUIZ

A place to chat about anything thats not football related. Most of the threads in here are completely pointless which is why people keep coming back and back. As the forum title suggests, feel free to make any post you want on any subject you wish. It also has Adult jokes (so be warned) which is the other reason people keep coming back.

Still no correct response as of yet. Let's erase capitals from the equation from here on and just concentrate on the basics :

# I am a past player from Brazil

# I featured most prominently during the 1980s

# I had a partnership with an all time legend

# I have played on different continents

# I have been voted Sportsman of the year by my own nation

Don't know why you're looking pleased with yourself, that is an incorrect response

Furthermore, if this hasn't been solved within 24 hours will just disclose the answer, someone else can take over

The one clue that needs a bit of light is "#1 I was born at the dawn of a new decadethis either means he/she was born on 1st January or are you just saying early in the year,,

No you're right in that, but patience is not one of my virtues in my defense

Clue 1 incidentally regards the player in question being born in the first year of a decade - the year incidentally is 1960

This is a give away but they had their most recognized international period at the Mexico '86 World Cup tourney

Was an educated guess. Knew Cruyff was about the right age, scored a sh*t load of goals for Ajax and represented the Netherlands on many occasions.


#1 I hold a record for my playing position

#2 I very nearly was capped 100 times for my country

#3 I played for one of the most recognized and biggest names in Europe

#4 I have played and scored against Liverpool in a semi-final

#5 I have played in a World Cup Final

don't Laugh but it was Trevor Brooking, erm I said don't laugh :wink:

This guess was good until I read he had played in a World Cup Final.

You needn't worry, I didn't laugh. That being I don't find much humor in anything these days

no it's not Brooking, but the thing is the player you seek - outside of his own country - perhaps isn't as recognized

In the right area geography wise though

quote : I have played and scored against Liverpool in a semi-final 1987

That would be a neat trick, English clubs had been expelled two years previous

And was the 1997 European Cup Final that memorable a game it warrants a mention, I remember watching and don't recall anything standout or unique.

Say again it is not Del Piero

It is not Rummenegger (blast the spelling) or Conti either incidentally

Have we given up on this. Either goes to show how good my rounds are, or maybe people don't want to participate, hoping it's the former.

Look to simplify things and only to get this in motion again, the player you look for is an Italian

Shouldn't really be disclosing such vital information but can see no alternative right now if this is to continue.
