[Football] Brighton Players Featured on International Panini Stickers

[marlowe]

I was perusing the Euro 2020 Panini Sticker Album and of the five Brighton players featuring in the tournament only Joël Veltman (no 278) is featured in the album.



This made me wonder, which other Brighton players (playing for Brighton at the time) have been featured in Panini albums for international tournaments?

Luxuriant locks. I won the New Road Subbuteo world cup in '86 with Nor'rn Ireand. pretty sure I'd have painted a lush mullet on Penney as well as I painted the whole team, inc shadow striped adidas kit.

Still one of my favourite ever Albion players.

Terry Connor was a favourite at the time too. Can't be many other Brighton players who played for England at the Goldstone ?

imagine being that good at something to get a sticker but not good enough for them to even include your photo.

It's a pretty poor excuse for a sticker album if they couldn't dig out a picture of him in his national kit (or any other kit for that matter). Panini have gone downhill since I was collecting (circa 1980).

I got a sticker after my covid jab. I didn't cry or anything.

Worth noting that OP's pic is just the space where the sticker should go...

Very brave, Zef.

You only need another 677 jabs to finish the Euro 2020 book now.

Problem solved....

Can understand why Sanchez and White aren't in there, but Moder and Trossard have been regularly making their respective squads for about a year now! (Though I know Trossard's picked up injuries on a couple of those occasions)

How many players does the album list per squad?

All teams have 20 card size pics but some, including England, Belgium, Spain and Poland have an additional 12 smaller pics making 32 in total, so it's surprising Trossard didn't get amongst the 32.

The Netherlands only had the basic 20 but Veltman still made it.

Strange that a top footballer in 1986 had a hairstyle like mine was - in 1974, when I was 16.

Meanwhile in the world outside of football in 1986:
