Weekend Quiz: The Difficult Club Quiz, Courtesy of Ranjeet

By: Laurie | June 27th, 2009

All right, boys and girls. Same format as a couple of weeks ago, but a little different. Because today, your quiz designer is reader Ranjeet, who gives us a quiz without my standard France and/or national team bias. So you’re on your own.

The rules, as stated previously:

I’ll give you a list of clubs, then I’ll follow it up with a current league, and you’ll give me the player and his current club. So if I say,

Monaco, Juventus, Arsenal, currently in La Liga

you will obviously say, “Thierry Henry, FC Barcelona,” Right? Right.

If you’d like a primer in how to handle these types of questions, check out this previous quiz.
