Carlos
Makelele
Figo

Zidane
Morientes
Raul

You did say 2002, at Hampden? Vividly remember watching that game and being in awe of the Madrid team that played, they were absolutely stunning. That one of them graced Ewood and Blackburn treated him like they did was disgraceful. Zidane’s goal

[Drumstick]

Well that was worth it.

Games Guru for a reason I guess.

[Drumstick]

I've answers for most of them now... Some I'm unsure about though.

[<]:^D]

same - im really gooseberry fool at the Euros - like i have no recollection at all of Euro 2000 which doesnt help

[PatSharpsMullet]

I've answers for most of them now... Some I'm unsure about though.

Same.

The player who has won the Champions League with three different clubs is the one I can't think of. Same goes for the scorer or the golden goal in Euro 2000. I know which country won it though so I've gone with an answer that is technically correct.

[<]:^D]

oh wow i think i made a mistake with that Champs League question then; i thought it was obvious

.

It's from the list on transfermarkt.com and I can't actually see that clarified but from looking at the fees I don't believe it's adjusted.

[<]:^D]

well thats me stuck on that one then i thought it was from the 90s/early 2000s but it cant be at that total fee i dont think
