    Also add Silva and Navas to the answers for Q2

    Going back to 2006 when Italy won it, can't think of any.

    Going back to 2002 when Brazil won it, can't think of any.

    Going back to 1998 when France won it, I'd say they're all retired.

    Just had a check, he's got a **** load of appearances but not sure if he's top, certainly more than Arteta.

    Played longest or most appearances?

    Speed was up there last time I checked in terms of appearances, but in terms of how long a player has been playing in the Premier League, I'd say Scholes would be a closer bet.

    Without google I'd go Giggs, Scholes.

    Scholes first appearance was in 1993/4 I think, and he retired officially in 2013.

    Speed was at Leeds prior to the Premier League's inception, but died before Scholes retired, but he'd already been retired a year or so I think.

    Really you're looking at the class of 92 for your answer, so it's probably between Scholes and Phil Neville after Giggs.

    Yeah but the first time was when he invented it so I wasn't counting that.
