WHO AM I. QUIZ

[goldandblack]

He didn't have 10,000 men, Wolfie. According to Scottish comedian jack Docherty, he marched up there with 10,000 pints of lager, then was violently sick!

anyway the Saint miss understood my answer. when I said Alan Brazil I actually meant ALAN was the capital of the country. not Brazil. easy mistake Saint so no need to apologize mate.

[marko69]

Who is this Miss Understood you speak of?

[arana peligrosa]

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

[goldandblack]

Roberto-Rivelino.

# I had a partnership with an all time legend.....Jairzinho

[arana peligrosa]

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,,

[goldandblack]

does it really matter how long it takes to answer Saint,

[arana peligrosa]

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

[marko69]

Careca

[BLUEBLOOD]

Antônio de Oliveira Filho

[arana peligrosa]

Careca

And after all that we have a correct response

guess you're up next

[marko69]

1/ I am now 68 years old.
2/ I played 48 times for my country.
3/ I scored 190 goals for my first club.
4/ I was at my first club for 9 seasons.

[arana peligrosa]

Is it Johan Cruyff

[marko69]

Is it Johan Cruyff

WOW! Spot on with that, Saint. Nice one.

[arana peligrosa]

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

10 clues - 1 player to find

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

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

[arana peligrosa]

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

[goldandblack]

How about Del Boy Piero, of Juventus..

[arana peligrosa]

This was way back before Del Piero ever appeared on the scene

In the right area geography wise though

[marko69]

Bruno Conti

[goldandblack]

This was way back before Del Piero ever appeared on the scene

In the right area geography wise though

they must have walked a parallel life Saint.

1 I hold a record for my playing position

#2 I very nearly was capped 100 times for my country..91 caps.

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

#4 I have played and scored against Liverpool in a semi-final 1987

#5 I have played in a World Cup Final ..2006 World Cup Winner

#6 I am mostly associated for being with one club side... Juventus 513 games

#7 I was involved at international level for a long period and won at least one major honour..1991 to 2008...17yrs

#8 I was involved in one of the most talked about and recognized games from European Cup history.. B Dortmund v Juventus

#9 I was part of a team that was beaten in the greatest event by perhaps the greatest side
Juventus 0 Wolverhampton Wanderers 2

#10 my club side was a winner on two successive years
seria A ..1971/72....1073/74

[goldandblack]

Karl-Heinz Rummenigge..

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

[arana peligrosa]

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.

Rossi or Fabio Cannavaro
