If, like me, you spend 90% of your working day looking at the Wikipedia pages of various football players from the mid-00s, you’ll be fine
If you don’t do that, you’re going to struggle.
This is not an easy quiz, and it will seriously test your knowledge of various Premier League journeyman over the last 15 years or so.
What it will give you, however, is knowledge. Knowledge in the form of the player who moved directly from Lokomotiv Moscow to Reading, and of the player who went from Dulwich Hamlet to IFK Hassleholm before taking the Premier League by storm.
This is the part where we usually wish you luck. I’m not going to do that. I don’t believe in luck, I believe in cold, hard, football knowledge.
Do your best, and if that’s not good enough, do more revision, come back, and then do better.
This is going to get very, very difficult. So here's a freebie to start you off.
