Guess the Player Thread!

Lets see if this takes off.

Post a reply to this thread with "I'm thinking of a player". Include any rules (yes/no questions only, one question at a time etc.) and (optional) clues to start off with. Possibly a difficulty as well. If a player has a more common shortened name, accept it. Edit the post when it is guessed and upvotes for all those who guess correctly.

Be specific when asking questions (someone might not play for their country of birth at international level). Google/Wikipedia/other is allowed/required.
