……Can you name them all?
The interminable interlull is upon us.
Trying to come up with an interesting topic for discussion was beyond me, so I wondered if you fancied attempting to name all 24 of the following Arsenal players from the past and the present. All are distorted in some way. Some have clues left in, others not.
Looking back it seems pretty easy, but I suppose all picture quizzes are easy when you set them. Hopefully you enjoy spending a little time trying to get them all. Some go back quite a long way, so apologies to the younger Gooners amongst us.
Disclaimer
No Arsenal players were hurt in the making of this quiz and it certainly wasn’t my intention to tarnish the reputation of any of them (except perhaps one!).

Raddy,
I could not recall Talbot’s surname at No.21.
I became fixated on Marwood which I knew was wrong but it blotted out Talbot. (Not that I saw either play).
A brilliant effort by Chas to obscure the faces!! 🙂

1 must be Vieira . Too much hair for WG
7. Not sure, the only one I can come up with is Djourou, but the hair is throwing me out a bit.
18.. Not a clue.
I think 18 is Cazorla
1. Is definitely Vieira – Gallas didn’t play in that kit. It’s the invincible 02 one, you can tell by the thin white strip around the neckline 🙂
Thanks for the comments on space-filler Saturday. 🙂
Emir O. Filipovic @EmirOFilipovic
@yellowbootson For anyone having trouble pronouncing Cazorla, I suggest they listen to this commentator

Why didn’t you morph pic 3?
Very clever chas.got me stumped on quite a few.I looked for alternatives e.g.
1) quick look=frimpong
2) quick look = fabregas
10) change the hair =charlie george
12) peter crouch (even though not an arsenal player)
16) change the hairstyle= alan ball
22) gervinho’s white cousin 🙂
24) quick look=baptista

Can easily see Big Al’s been on the pop. Alex James? He was playing when Spurs last won the title and that as we all know was in black and white.
My first subbuteo team had Alex James in it and Ted Drake upfront. We were unbeatable

I bet you all start looking to see which number/photo you are !.
Thanks to me for supplying the mirror !. hahaha
Haha, thanks for joining in.
I had to look up Gordon Neilson.
So far Narcassius at a rough estimate wins with correct answers.
Big Al wins with making me laugh the most times. It must be hard doing a quiz with some delectable young Thai lady on your arm desperate for you to buy her a drink. 🙂
I’ll put the answers up with the original photos in a couple of hours.
Sorry, RA.
Apollogies from TMHT, he also had a tough time doing the quiz, trying to restrain a delectable Thai Boy in the back of his Hillman Minx !.
A lot of fun Chas. I’m too lazy to do it – so I’ve just pinched everyone else’s answers instead 🙂
glic. I did check! Just to see if it was pre-toupe´
GLiC …I checked and your spot on, that’s amazing.
See Narcassius at 2.10 for answer list except
8. George Armstrong and
16. Willie Young

Nik Bendtner got rave reviews in the Danish papers today. Not only MoM but in one paper gave him 10/10.
Why he can’t transfer his national form to club level is a mystery
Hi chas, what i want to know, number 12, is how the hell did you get my picture. You know i dont like my boat to be known. Whats going to happen now, when the site is inundated with screaming women wanting a slice of me. Someones got to let them down gently, and that person is you man. hahahaha
Peaches and Rasp, ive sent a post to Arsenalnuts.
What paper was that Raddy ?, The Daily Bendtner !.
Did mine on a Sony Xperia Smartphone….no problem (thats for all you faux snobs on IPhones)
Gutted that I didn’t get Paddy at no.1….my all time fave player. Lee Dixon was the biggest surprise for me…..cracking pic of him though. Top top full back.
Sterling work Chas..I .really enjoyed that…..
Unfortunate scenes in Senegal.
Ivory Coast score twice thanks to a very very iffy ref. The Senegal fans riot and set fire to the stands. Then attack the Ivory Coast fans. Meanwhile play is suspended but all the players are on the pitch frightened to leave.
Then the police shepherd the IC fans onto the pitch where they are assembled in the centre circle. The players are still on the pitch.
Sharkey,
Here is the full picture of one of Arsenal’s greatest ever captains

I’ve been trying to work out which goal he is celebrating it might be one of these…..haha.
Morning all, 🙂
Breakfast Club on strike?
16. Got to be Stefan Schwarz
Morning RA, damn interlull leaves me watching F1
I have started watching the Being Liverpool documentary, Brendan Rodgers management style would leave me cold, an interesting insight in to the workings of a football club though.
This is the David Brent-esque line of the week.
“Three people will let us down this season, I have written the names in these envelopes, make sure you’re not one of them”
Erm David sorry Brendan, you’ve already written the names, how can anyone make sure they’re not one of them? All they can do is prove you wrong.
Either way I think I’d be laughing when I got back to my teammates.
Hi GIE, 🙂
Utter rubbish gimmick by Rogers.
But do you know who first pulled that nonsense many years ago? None other than old purple conk himself!!
Pathetic!
GIE,
I watched it for the first time this week as my scouse mate said it was going to be the episode where we beat them at Anfield.
I will definitely watch it again.
Do you think Rodgers realises he says OK at the end of virtually every sentence. That would drive me bananas if I had to listen to that as a player.
Btw, apologies to all for the silly picture quiz. At least it meant a genuine post crafted with a great deal of thought and love wasn’t doomed to obscurity on Interlull Saturday, the nadir of football blogs. 🙂
chas. No need to apologise … it was great. I would like more of the same and I am sure others would as well.
Morning all
Sorry, forgot to say New Post ………..
I’ve been reading yesterdays comments 😳
