Trivia thread, the revival

[Evilo]

Nope and nope.
It's not really hard nor surprising.

 

[luiginb]

Camavinga given he played LB?

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Nope and nope.
It's not really hard nor surprising.

I keep telling you! It's Giroud!

 

[Power Man]

Thuram or Fofana

 

[Evilo]

Thuram it is.

 

[Evilo]

Out of the top 5 leagues, which player has carried the ball forward for the most meters?
Hint : he's south american

 

[Savant]

Out of the top 5 leagues, which player has carried the ball forward for the most meters?

This feels like it could be Vini - but he is not a name I would expect you to pull

 

[Evilo]

Nope.
It's very surprising IMO.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Nope.
It's very surprising IMO.

Valverde?

 

[Evilo]

Valverde?

No he's not a midfielder.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

CBs generally lead this stat, IIRC. Gonna say Thiago Silva or Marquinhos.

 

[Evilo]

No and no.
Hint again : not a brazilian

EDIT : Yes to the CB position though.

 

[Evilo]

Nope but... And you'll love this... Same nationality

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Nope but... And you'll love this... Same nationality

It should be Martinez but I was tempted to say Medina.

 

[Evilo]

It should be Martinez but I was tempted to say Medina.

Medina it is!

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Medina it is!

Lol I wanted to say him before Balerdi shocked it isn’t Martinez.

More hints :

1- 59 Kone
2- 55, Kouame (don't think anyone could have found him)
3- 55, Bellingham
4- 54, Ligue 1, France, strasbourg
5- 53, S. Fofana
6- 51, Ligue 1, france, wonderful young player
7- 50, Verratti
8- 49, Ounahi
9- 47, Fuhrich (again, too hard)
10- 45, EPL, france/england this one is fairly easy based on nationality

 

[Savant]

10 is Olise

6 I will guess the other Enzo at Lorient, saw a bit of him by accident recently. Great talent but he is so small

 

[Evilo]

Both good answers.
Olise and Le Fee. Le Fee's 1.70m.

1- 59 Kone
2- 55, Kouame (don't think anyone could have found him)
3- 55, Bellingham
4- 54, Ligue 1, France, strasbourg
5- 53, S. Fofana
6- 51, Le Fée
7- 50, Verratti
8- 49, Ounahi
9- 47, Fuhrich (again, too hard)
10- 45, Olise

 

[Savant]

1- 59 Kone
2- 55, Kouame (don't think anyone could have found him)
3- 55, Bellingham
4- 54, Ligue 1, France, strasbourg
5- 53, S. Fofana
6- 51, Le Fée
7- 50, Verratti
8- 49, Ounahi
9- 47, Fuhrich (again, too hard)
10- 45, Olise

Le Fee seems very lightweight though and it shows in duels. When he gets downhill though he is so dangerous.

Strasbourg playing now and the only French midfielder starting is Diarra do I guess him
