Correct.
Are the others some kind of trick question? Iâm completely stumped.
Nope. One wouldnât be well known while the other is extremely well known to this forum.
And youâre positive that they have an English Premier League winnerâs medal as a player, having previously been played for the Manchester United Youth team?
Iâm stumped as well, how could a premier league medal winner not be well known, do you not have to play in a few games to get one?
Blackburn had a few players that wouldnât be household names but every British player to win a medal since would be well known, I know Pique and Pogba were at United but canât think of other foreigners to fall through the net.

We are talking Premier League era here right?
I donât think John Obi Mikel played his youth football in England.
Thought he signed for Utd at 16-17 before the transfer saga? It was a pure guess really thinking it may have been a trick question.
Never played a game for Utd and never set foot inside the Youth Academy there.
Iâm not even sure if he was a registered United player.

ah so this was a complete load of bollix.
Premiership and Premier League are a completely different thing.
