What's the point in that article? Anyone who has followed or watched the premier league within the last 15 years wouldn't have forgot most of them or who they played for.

TBF I forgot who quite a few of them played for.

What's the point in anything? It's nostalgic.

I'd personally maybe pick:

Bernard Lama - West Ham

Dino Baggio - Blackburn

Pierluigi Casiraghi - Chelsea

Vincenzo Montella - Fulham

Christian Panucci - Chelsea

Taribo West - Derby :ph34r:

Gheorghe Popescu - Spurs

I'm sure there are more if I gave it more thought.

Now those are ones I don't remember.

Except Casiraghi because he did his knee there.

Unfortunately I can't forget Montella after his two goals against us in the cup!

Dino Baggio at Blackburn must have completely passed me by....

Pierre Van-Hoijjdonk at Forest.

I know the spelling's awful. Can't be arsed looking it up.

I know some Glaswegians who pronounce it "huge-donk".

Marc Keller (world cup winner I think) at West Ham and Blackburn sprang to my mind. For a more up to date one - Nuno Gomez at Blackburn (always seems to be West Ham, Bolton or Blackburn)

I thought of Djorkaeff but I think he was at Bolton for a while so he sticks in the memory more than a few of the other fleeting appearances. I was also going to mention Alen Boksic but he was at Boro for quite a while too. Also Robert Prosinecki but I can't remember if he ever actually appeared for Pompey in the Prem.

Someone will know the answer to this, I'm sure. Which shitty Division 3 team did Faustino Asprilla sign for? Was it Darlington?

From Wikipedia:

During a time which was generally low-key, he appeared in the public eye again in 2002 amid reports he had been approached by English Division Three side Darlington. Darlington successfully appealed an initial work permit refusal and had offered around £17,000 per week plus 20% of gate receipts, a car and a rent-free flat. Chairman George Reynolds considered they were friends and in fact paraded Asprilla in front of 5,163 fans before Darlington's 2-0 win over Carlisle United on Tuesday 27 August, believing the intended 2-year contract was good as signed. However it was reported that following the player stalling on taking a medical on Thursday 29 August, in the early hours of Friday 30 August, Asprilla caught a flight from Newcastle Airport to the Middle East, to apparently take up a more lucrative offer. Reynolds described himself as "absolutely gutted" by the snub, complained Asprilla "did not even have the decency to say goodbye" and said he would never talk to him again.[13][14] This was the second time that Darlington was snubbed by a high profile ex-Newcastle player that summer – the other was Paul Gascoigne.
