Morning everyone.
This next quiz will be running for five weeks, and again features players who have all, at some point in their careers, played in the Premier League.
The usual rules apply. I’ll be revealing one clue each weekday to that week’s player, and they get easier. as the week goes on. If you guess the player on Monday, you score 5 points, 4 on Tuesday and so on.
I am after the name the player was commonly known by, please.
As ever, there is a link between our five players and, if you’re the first to guess it then, bravo, – you score ten bonus points. The next person bags nine bonus points etc. until they are all gone (although we haven’t had more than ten players taking part for years).
Easy enough, and if we do have any newcomers, you’ll get the hang of it soon enough, so let’s get started.

Time's up, gents.
A nice tricky one to start off the latest quiz (well, you were all getting too good at guessing!), but you all eventually correctly identified our first player as Mikel Arteta.
As usual, the first week is always low scoring, so our top performer is Macc with 3 points, followed by Gazz and Hermann yesterday, then the rest of you this morning. Here's the opening table:
1. Macc 3 2= Gazz 2 Hermann 2 4= Archie 1 Bradninch 1 BBLW 1 Epworth 1
Still plenty of time to make up any lost ground, and I'll see you all Monday for Week 2.
Cheers.
