I'm sure I once read that England never lost a game in which Viv Anderson played.

I notice from his wiki page that he got 30 caps in a ten year period covering 1978-'88. No mention of the England never losing stat though. So, did I imagine this ? Can any stattos confirm ?

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

We went unbeaten when Gerrard played for a pretty long time too.

Yeah, but I'm counting friendlies, so the above obviously doesn't count

Not true. We lost five times with him playing.

Twice against Scotland. Imagine that nowawdays...

[Goldstone Rapper]

Bet I got the Southampton one wrong. Terry Paine instead of Channon? Can't think of many Southampton players that played for England...

 

[The Large One]

Mick Channon is correct.

One of the others is wrong. In fact, it's only half-wrong.
