I'll just answer without consulting google, it's more fun.
1.- Mmm, I only can remember him in Valencia, how he was sacked from Osasuna, and the Tenerife spells...ah well and the Valladolid one. I don't know the fifth, he coached Castilla aswell but that's a youth team of Real Madrid.
2.- Two.
3.- Midfielder. That's why he appreciates Xabi's quality. :P. But he played for really minor teams, equivalent to your CocaCola league one or two.
4.- Xabi Alonso?
5.- Mmmm, not sure
I'm tired, will continue later

I got 16 of them. I was harsh on myself though, I just answered Crouchie instead of Fowler, Pennant and Carson. I just thought he asked for Crouchie.
Call it 17.
