I know i'm a tad ancient, the memory is not what it was, old git etc but I am sure i could recall the majority of players/teams from yesteryear without thinking too hard about it and could put names to faces and faces to names but I detect a massive disconnect when I try to recall current Premier League players without referring to squad numbers.

I watch these teams and players through TV but most times am guessing who is who and which is which.

As an example (and a little test) i have selected a number of PL players all who played over the weekend and invite SBT readers to put a club to the name(s) without researching like I had to in the various media - here goes:

Sessagnon - sunderland?
ki Sung-yeung -swansea
N'Zonzi -
Schlupp -
Mee - Burnley
Mangala
Rojo
Cazorla - Arsenal
Fer
Jelavic - Everton
Vergini
Lukaku - Everton
Azpilicueta
Samalfitano
Janmaat
Jedinak
Coutino - Liverpool
Verthonger - Villa?
Wanyama
N'Zogbia - West Brom?

Have a go SBT's and prove me wrong - I doubt it

All good old British names (not) Is it any wonder that some want to limit the number of foreign players?
