  • Hints for the players not yet guessed:

    #2. A) He may not be technically, legally, fully escaped, and B) if I showed you the hair, you'd get it in a second.

    #6. I have gone back and studied the photo to be absolutely certain that it is who I think it is. And...um... Well, I hope it is. But the colors in the photo are odd. I just went in and added a cut from a second photo, so after you read this, go back into the post to see if you can see it now.

    Also, he did a lot of time in the Premier League, but also a fair amount in the Championship.
  • The Real Jose Mourinho
    1. Juan Pablo Angel (Aston Villa 2001-2007)
    2. David Beckham (Manchester United 1992-2003)
    3. Claude Makelele (Chelsea 2003-2008)
    4. Gabriel Heinze (Manchester United 2004-2007)
    5. Carlos Bocanegra (Fulham 2004-2008)
    6.
    7. Mathieu Flamini (Arsenal 2004-2008)
    8. Andriy Shevchenko (Chelsea 2006-2008)
    9. Arjen Robben (Chelsea 2004-2007)
    10. Harry Kewell (Leeds United 1995-2003, Liverpool 2003-2008)
    11. Thierry Henry (Arsenal 1999-2007)

    Note the amount of players who were bought in 2004, Robben and Flamini after Euro 2004, Bocanegra after the Copa America and Heinze after winning gold in the men's football team in the Olympics with Argentina.

    Totally off topic, but I immediately thought 7 looked like Felix Gaeta. Maybe he's the number 7? Or maybe I've just been watching too much of that.

    I wonder if anyone will get this reference.
