    Nick Heidfield was with Williams and he can be traced back to Keke Roseger.

    Yorke and Beckham @ Man Utd
    Beckham and Seedorf @ AC Milan
    Seedorf and Kaka @ AC Milan

    :eek:You beat me on the Franz Carr one (I was thinking of going through Johnny Metgod at Real Madrid and think I could do it in 5).
    I'd best not derail this too much into F1, but I was also thinking of Heidfeld but I was going to double-check whether I could start with Nelson Piquet and Keke Rosberg (at Brabham maybe??)

    I'll have a go at Muller and Muller unless anyone beats me to it.
    After that I'm thinking of offering John Robertson (played in WC '82 and '78 for Scotland) and John Robertson (played for Scotland in '90's).

    I can mention clubs if necessary but that might give too much of a clue maybe.

    Thanks for solving my obscure one (on the theme of the same named players like some others but perhaps confusing).
    Good Scottish knowledge there ;). I did think of a route with just 3 links but only because I had a recolllection from somewhere of Paul Goddard playing for Derby with Shilton, and some Newcastle fan on a train last year mentioned Robertson playing for Newcastle where I think he would've been Goddard's team-mate.

    My line of thinking was a bit less calculated. I just went for Shilton, knowing how many clubs he had played for, and then worked from there. ;)

    I'm pretty sure Durie left before Jones joined Chelsea.

    You could do:

    Jones & Dennis Wise (Wimbledon or Chelsea)
    Wise & Brian Laudrup (Chelsea)
    Laudrup & Gatusso (Rangers)


    How about Kevin Keegan to Kevin Kuranyi?

    In this game does a player/coach relationship count too?

    No, I don't think so.... that would be very, very easy.

    schwuppe, you have to come up with new names for the next connection.

    Robbie Fowler to Marco Tardelli would be way too easy due to the Ian Rush Juventus connection.

    So let's gomwith Robbie Fowler to Carlos Valderrama instead.
