This has only emphasised my Premier League rubbish-ness.

I got 7/20. In fact the timer is still going, but for most of the clubs I can't even guess at any names!

Who, other than [MENTION=5200]Buzzer[/MENTION], can do worse than me?

(You only need to type a surname - if you type one that's correct, it autofills it alongside the club in question)

I only got 7. Harder than I first thought.

You still have a lot to learn about me. 3.

That truly is dreadful. Even I got:

Us
Burnley
Palace
Both Manchester clubs
Watford
And, amazingly, Arsenal - although it took me about 15 attempts to get the spelling right.

16. I failed with Southampton, West Brom, West Ham and Swansea.

I got all the others within 2 minutes, it was just club by club. But those 4 got me which is funny because all 4 were signed this summer.

4.

I don't believe some of the scores people are claiming.

Who the hell is Naby Keita?

14 here. Annoyed I didn't get Bournemouth and West Ham. I also missed Newcastle, Stoke, Swansea and Spurs.

He currently plays for RB Leipzig in Germany, Liverpool have paid a club record fee for him but he'll join next summer. He's also been handed the number 8 shirt, so he'll be the first Liverpool player to wear number 8 since Gerrard left.

Pressure.

To be honest, almost all of the records have been broken in the last two years. Anyone who regularly watches the Premier League will know of most of them. Stoke's is easy to forget and not knowing about West Ham or West Brom is fair. Swansea's record signing is a bit of a joke, good player but hardly box office. We should all know Bournemouth's...

I think some people spend too much time reading about football...

(...says a guy on NSC far too often. I better get back to work.)

It's a hobby we all share. Just that some of us spend more time actively pursuing it. I watch the German football, by chance I saw Hünemeier play for Padeborn against Gladbach the year before he signed for us, I went to see the game in Gladbach and stayed in Dusseldorf over the weekend.

I wonder how many people are assuming that Shearer is still Newcastle's record signing?!

4/20, would have been 5 if I could have spelt the name of the bloke who went from Swansea to Everton for stupid money correctly.

I've never even heard of half of them.
