Correct, carry on mate.

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

Alright, one that might take a little longer then. Earlier I pointed out that Mark Schwarzer had the most appearances for a non-European in the EPL, so we'll go in that direction.

1. Which non-UK/Ireland outfield player made the most appearances in the EPL?

2. Which non-European outfield player made the most appearances in the EPL?

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

This should be a good one! Is #1 Sylvain Distin?

#2 Pablo Zabaleta?

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

I was gonna say it's Friedel or Howard, but then I remembered outfield players.

Dwight Yorke then, played ages for Villa, and was just in the news a few months ago

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

Christ we're encyclopedias around here.

Yes, it's 1) Distin (France) and 2) Dwight Yorke (Trinidad & Tobago)

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

Gonna go with Yorke and Distin

Haha Tim beat me to it

[~LiverpoolRed~]

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

LOL, I knew Distin from several PL bios they do during commercial breaks on tv. Played many games for Newcastle, Man City, Everton, Pompey and Bournemouth.

Suntan, you have a go!

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

Full disclosure, I had no idea who Dwight Yorke was until [insert political nonsense here] happened. Read a bunch about him afterwards, and figured it had to be him. Can't imagine there's even another outfield player within 100 appearances of him.

uh, I'll throw a softball

which PL rookie scored the most goals in his PL debut season?

[~LiverpoolRed~]

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

Harry Kane?

[Brahvocado]

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

No way that's not Kevin Phillips. Pretty sure he even won the European golden boot in his debut season.

[Suntan Superman]

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

Yup, it's Kevin Phillips!

Sorry for the delay!

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

Dual question again.

Fastest to 50 Prem goals?

Youngest to 50 Prem goals?

Or maybe it's the same person?

[ImTellinTim]

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

I'll go with

Fastest: Alan Shearer

Youngest: Michael Owen

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

Fowler for both?

Re: Soccer Trivia Time

Fowler for both?

I was going to say the same.
