Below you will find positions – and we're using England's official definition here, so you may well regard a 'forward' as a 'midfielder' yourself but this is what the FA has gone with – and all you need to do is name the current England footballer who opted not to wear a green shirt. The above headline image is the easy one. Can you get them all, though? Five minutes on the clock... If the quiz isn't displaying below, refresh the page or click here instead.
