Nick Barmby
Played for England around the turn of the century and was part of Sven's first England team. Then in 2004 at the age of 30 he left Leeds for Hull City in League 2 and stayed with them until he retired (helping them climb to the PL in the space of a few years) |

Mike Flanagan - Used to be a quality player in his heyday. In his late playing years he spent a season at Margate as a player. I know this as I played against him in training. I was in the Under 18's and we played a match against the first team.

Ps ... haha Paul Merson is registered for a Sunday League team in west London. A guy I know played against him a couple of weeks ago - beat them 6-1 ... apparently he was giving out all sorts of shit to his teammates for generally being a bit shit.

 Aren't both he and Van Gaal both being linked with the Dippers? Not sure if the rumours are getting at a possible partnership, but don't those two absolutely hate each other? Have the Scousers learned nothing?! |

Gabriele Ambrosetti - he still haunts me for being absolutely useless. Basically a non-exhaustive list: Ronaldo > Robben > Pires > Bale > Ljungberg > Kewell > Gronkjaer > Stanic > Zenden > Rommedahl > A dead cat on a stick > Ambrosetti. He played about twenty times in the league for us in four years which basically tells you how rubbish he was considering we had a string of rubbish wingers at the time in Zenden, Gronkjaer, Stanic etc who were keeping him out of the side. |

 No idea how I missed that one. Good players dropping down to lower leagues: Kevin Nolan. I bet he always plays FIFA on semi-pro, too. |

The idea that Best would be playing top flight football in the 80's seems absurd and like he'd be dragging out his career, but it wouldn't have been inconceivable - definitely not by today's standards and probably not if he'd looked after himself. |

Edit - Off topic but you can almost make a team of Premier League Johnson's: Johnson (Liverpool) - Johnson (Wolves) Johnson (Man City) - Johnson (Norwich) - Johnson (Man City) Johnson (Fulham) The dreaded 2-3-1. No Goalies though. |

Tell me somebody else who was a key player in title winning sides in the Netherlands, Germany, Spain and England - he ripped up the premier league in 2005 like no winger had since Giggs. |
