Still got that trivia itch? We’ve raided the vaults to bring you a fresh batch of challenges that range from the glitz of the ballroom to the gritty reality of an FA Cup upset. Whether you are a student of the 90s or a follower of the modern-day ‘super-manager,’ there is a grid here with your name on it, courtesy of Kwizly.
We’ll start with the undisputed icons of the game. We want to see if you can name every Ballon d'Or top three since 1992, a task that requires you to look past the usual winners and recall the legendary bridesmaids who almost touched the stars. For a more nostalgic trip, try to identify the 1994 World Cup stars, recalling the heroes of that sun-drenched American summer who defined a generation of football.
Next, we shift the focus to the tactical masters and the vast sums they’ve overseen. We challenge you to name the 50 biggest-spending managers ever, a list that tracks the heavy hitters of the transfer market across Europe’s elite leagues. For those who enjoy connecting the dots between careers, see if you can name all these players who share three of the same clubs, which is a brilliant test of your knowledge of teammate reunions in different cities.
If you consider yourself a student of the domestic game’s greatest shocks, try to name every FA Cup giantkiller since 2020. It is a great way to revisit the afternoons where the pyramid was turned upside down. For those who appreciate a bit of crossover appeal, can you name every footballer to have appeared on Strictly Come Dancing? It requires a different kind of memory altogether, moving from the pitch to the foam-lit dancefloor.
Ready for a proper brain-buster? Our Pre-Match Poser no.16 is waiting: this is specifically designed for the deepest thinkers in the game to test their understanding of the most niche historical and tactical details. Finally, wind down your session with FourFourTwo's Weekend Crossword 42, featuring a blend of clues on stars, centre-backs, and a few Scrabble-worthy head-scramblers to keep you on your toes.
