Country for United is Jordan, or Jordan also does for a river. Alan Brazil then becomes the country.

Dion Dublin is the City. The mountain is Laurent Blanc.

Busby is the hard one, which is why I told you that hours ago.

Matt Busby played for Liverpool before managing Man United to the European Cup in 1968

Billy Wright for England played 70 odd consecutive games, Theo Zagirakis (think it is spelled like that) played over 50 for Greece. I heard of someone else but cannot remember the name or country.

Jens Lehman

Didn't Bobby Charlton play a few games for Waterford Utd, pay per game basis. Did none of the other 1966 World Cup team do the same?
