The point of this game? Why pick on these particular matches?

h5ydn: Because the idea is to name the 'missing men' ie. the starting XI. Vagamin: The point is to name to the starting XI of the games. I've chose these particular matches as they are considered some of the best in EPL history. Man Utd/Ipswich is the largest winning margin by any team in PL history, the 7-4 is the most goals scored in 1 PL game, the Liverpool/Newcastle 4-3 is considered one of the best matches in PL history, Newcastle came from 4-0 down to draw 4-4 and so is considered a great game, the Blackpool/Wigan game was Blackpool's first ever EPL game and seeing how they won so convincingly I felt they deserved a place in this quiz.

'Missing men' implies they have gone missing though. Therefore should it not be to name the players who clearly didn't turn up if they are beaten by so many goals? Those are the men who were missing.

allydfc12: the 'missing men' game is popular on Sky Sports' website, and this is my take on it. It appears to me you're taking the 'missing men' moniker very literally, I don't mean they were abducted or whatever, I simply mean I've 'missed' them out in the quiz and you need to 'find' them.

I agree with allydfc12, I'd assume that the "missing men" would be the players on the team that got a hiding.

I had to google a player's name to make sure I spelled it correctly. I found the correct spelling and entered it. It didn't come up so I presumed he hadn't featured in the game, however the answers came up and the player was there. In short, please accept the following spelling: Løvenkrands.
