Trivia thread, the revival

Let's see.

England: It's not Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham, or City. Not Chelsea or United or Forest. Can't be Palace, they just got smacked by Newcastle. It's not Newcastle either cause there was that game where City smoked them and we thought City was back. So that leaves Ipswich, Southampton, Leicester (all of whom I have to imagine we can rule out). Actually yeah, Arsenal 1-0'd Ipswich at the Emirates, so definitely not Ipswich. Okay so Southampton, Leicester, Wolves, West Ham, Everton, Brighton, Brentford, Villa, Fulham, and Bournemouth are all that remain. Everton got blanked in the Merseyside derby at Anfield, so cross them out.

Spain: Not Barca or Madrid. Atleti just got blanked by Las Palmas, so not them. Bilbao had the 0-0 draw with Rangers, so we can rule them out.

Italy: Not Inter or Atalanta or Bologna or Napoli, nor is it Juve or Fiorentina.

Germany: Not Leverkusen, Bayern or Dortmund.

France: Not PSG.

It's gonna be someone stupid, like Southampton. Hmmmm. I can't think of when Gladbach got shut out on the road, so maybe they're one. And for my other guess let's go with oh I don't know Lyon

League only. Not talking about cups
 
So kind of gave away that one of the teams is Liverpool.

They other team is a lot more interesting; in a way you can say they are opposite to LFC
 
In the mean time, here's another.

Name the top 10 players in terms of big chances created per 90 in the top 5 leagues from open play (minimum 1000 minutes).

1/ Buli 1
2/ L1 0.94
3/ Liga 0.92
4/ L1 0.87
5/ L1 0.83
6/ EPL 0.8
7/ Liga 0.77
8/ L1 0.76
0/ Buli 0.68
10/ EPL 0.68

Not sure if per 90 complicates, but I think Palmer leads the PL in this so I’ll say him. The other PL, I think, is Kulusevski.

Ligue 1 is Cherki and BuLi is Olise, because that’s why you posted this

I think Salah leads in big chances created but my guess because it’s/90 is Saka

The "open play" is what made me think it wasn't Saka - he was consistently near the top for total big chances created before his injury, but went down the list when the open play caveat was added.

Or maybe I'm thinking of raw "chances created", and not "big chances created."

Who the f*** knows.

Ah, I missed the open play. This is what happens when I don't have coffee
 
Think the Frenchmen are going to dominate this.

Olise is 1

The L1 guys are Cherki and the PSG trio, Doue, Barcola & Dembele , not sure on the order, the two Barca guys are on here, Yamal before Raphinha, if it’s p90, Saka is probably here, maybe at the bottom though

Lots of good answers. 3 guys left.
 
It's not Salah? I genuinely can't think of who it would be besides either Salah or Palmer, unless the relatively low minute threshold means someone who's just barely passed the 1000 min mark (say, KdB?) has slipped in.
