I'm sure at the 2018 world cup in Russia we had the most players (mostly ex players by then) there outside a handful of clubs. Something like 9 current and former players. And that was the season we dropped into league one.
could someone make a list of our players and countries and get it put in a sticky please, could be a massive help to some, especially those of us (me) with a fecked memory time span, many thanks in advance.

Whatever happened to that Trafford fella from Burnley ... ... I remember when he was signing for Newcastle to become the greatest English keeper since Gordon Banks. Is he injured?
Alot of us have forgotten this but am i right in saying Alese and Cirkin are ready for selection now after this break?
Roundup of yesterday's players action from SAFC website... Chemsdine Talbi and Granit Xhaka enjoyed standout evenings as Sunderland’s internationals were in action on Friday’s round of FIFA World Cup qualifiers. Talbi came off the bench to help Morocco secure their place at the 2026 FIFA World Cup on his international debut, with the Atlas Lions easing to a dominant 5-0 win over Niger. The midfielder’s nation becomes the latest to book their ticket to the finals. Elsewhere, Granit Xhaka captained Switzerland to a comprehensive 4-0 victory over Kosovo in Basel. The midfielder played the full 90 minutes as the Swiss extended their lead at the top of Group G, with Slovenia up next on Monday. There was also success for Noah Sadiki and Arthur Masuaku’s DR Congo, who claimed a 4-1 win away to South Sudan to sit top of Group B. Sadiki completed the full match, while Masuaku missed out through suspension but is eligible to return for Tuesday’s crunch meeting with Habib Diarra’s Senegal. Habib Diarra played an hour for Senegal as they overcame Sudan 2-0 in Dakar, leaving them just one point behind DR Congo before Tuesday’s head-to-head in Kinshasa. In Group F, Simon Adingra started for Ivory Coast and provided an assist for Vakoun Bayo in their 1-0 win over Burundi. The forward was withdrawn with 20 minutes to play as the Elephants moved top of their section ahead of Tuesday’s test against Gabon. It was a more frustrating day for Reinildo Mandava, who played the full 90 minutes as Mozambique suffered a 4-0 defeat to Uganda in Kampala. They face Botswana next on Monday. Bertrand Traoré, Sunderland’s deadline-day signing, was an unused substitute as Burkina Faso cruised to a 6-0 win over Djibouti. His nation return to action on Tuesday against Egypt. At youth level, Eliezer Mayenda featured for an hour as Spain Under-21s beat Cyprus U21 3-0 in Soria. They travel to face Kosovo on Tuesday in their UEFA European Qualifying campaign.
Dross from England so far, as we’ve come to expect. Bright spot, Anderson looking every bit as comfortable in the side as he has in the u21. Gonna be a massive player for England.
I've turned it over to watch the woman's rugby world cup, they show more guts and determination. (No, I'm not going to say they're showing more balls)
