AVFC_Hitz Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 So, me and mates have been playing this game of six degrees of separation. We chose Ryan Giggs as the player and we tried to connect some pretty obscure footballers with him. The only connection is 'played with', so 'managed' or being friends doesn't count. Neither does 'played against'. I'm going to pick Rio Ferdinand as the first one...who can try and connect him with...

AVFC_Hitz Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Nice, didn't do it difficult enough. Let's stretch time a bit. Wayne Rooney Atillio Lombardi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) If you pick players who've had 500+ games then it's going to be fairly easy. I'd imagine Rooney and Lombardi can also be done in three, especially as Lombardo played in England. Wayne Rooney Ryan Giggs Henning Berg Marcus Bent Attilio Lombardo That's five. I'm sure if you trawl through Soccerbase you'd be able to find someone who overlapped Lombardo's time at Crystal Palace and Rooney's at Everton. Marcus Bent was at Everton with Rooney but they never played together as Rooney was injured before leaving to join Manchester United.

Steven Naismith Steven Davis Ryan Bertrand Dejan Stefanovic Chris Waddle You would be able to do it in four, if Alan Gow and Dejan Stefanovic has shared time on the pitch at Norwich in 2009 but they didn't. Waddle also played with Mark Schwarzer at Bradford, so if there's a direct link from Schwarzer to Naismith (and there must be), then you can do four.
