Name a player from the last 20 years


Recommended Posts

I often get quite nostalgic around hearing player names from the late 90s, early 2000's or really any time from the last 20 years or so.

For example I was watching the Falkirk 4-0 Hearts game from around 10 years ago after it had been mentioned on here and I saw Phil Stamp with the ball. I remember Hearts signing Phil Stamp at the times and thinking "Fucking hell Phil Stamp, thats a great signing". But when I watched the game after it was brought up here I had completely forgotten about him.

So, I'm looking for people to name some random player names from their (or other clubs) that have played in the Premiership in the last 20 years in the hope that we get some discussion around them and some memories from around the forum.

I will start then.

Phil Stamp.

David Fernandez and Danny Invincible.

I remember thinking they had great names as a teen but not really noticing them beyond that.

Jose Goncalves I mind having a great debut for Hearts, iirc, signed from Thun the season after there champions league appearance then disappearing. Think he may have had serious injury problems...

Edit: Gretna's whole team when they were in the SPL read like a whos-who of "good players for the SPL on Football Manager", and I'm convinced that's what Wadsworth used for his scouting, should be fun naming that side in particular. Mikael Buscher (sp?) was a 20-goal a season striker on the game, and I'm sure I heard his name on Sportscene one time and reflexively winced since he always scored against me on FM. Big Abdul Osman was at them at the time too, now plays for us. further edit: Gavin Skelton is another name that just came to me, think he went to join Killie post Gretna and did well for them but may well be getting mixed up.. Further fun with Gretna as their manager, Rowan Alexander, seemingly vanished from Scottish Football after his mysterious exit from Gretna, it wasn't til I started frequenting P&B that I got a vague idea what that whole mess was (allegedly) about...

There was the right back who went to Sheffield Utd from Gretna when they went tits up, think he ended up at spurs, name is on the tip of my tongue but I don't want to cheat...

Kyle Naughton, now at Swansea. Fairly sure Gretna played him upfront.

Daniele Chiarini.
