Can you name the Premier League's top 200 goalscorers? You've got 20 minutes, no cheating! I only got 81. Good luck everyone

My mind went blank when I did this

Not easy! I missed Beardsley, Redknapp and Baros as well

89, not long enough really with such a long list of players. Ironically I did get Beardsley and Redknapp, I nearly typed Spencer and decided not to! And some you can get without meaning to, like typing in "Speedie" and getting "Speed".

Someone needs to think a lot more carefully about time, 200 to get in 20 minutes is 10 a minute which is one every six seconds and that gives you little thinking time let alone typing time. I bet if someone had the answers they'd only just be able to type them in inside the 20 minutes. You probably need either a shorter list or 45-60 minutes to do it, for people to get more than AS did. I'm sure he'd have got Baros given a bit more time. I must confess to eating my breakfast while doing it as well, not sure I'd have got many more had I not.

Not sure the nationalities helped, especially since a lot of "English" wouldn't help narrow it down. Didn't really have time to use that aspect much. Got all but three of the top 28 so I'm pleased with that, 89 was about as many as I'd hope to get - one every 13.48 seconds which is realistic for anything requiring thinking, probably longer to get harder ones. At my speed you'd have to allow 45 minutes to get all 200, as suggested previously in my post.
