Welcome to Teamsheet… Mail Sport’s football memory game that leaves you scratching your head as you try and remember starting XIs of years gone by.

On New Year’s Day, we challenged you to remember a Tottenham team that thrashed Fulham. Unfortunately for Spurs fans, today we want you to name the Newcastle side that beat them 7-1 back in 1996 ahead of their clash on Saturday.

Three home players scored braces and it was almost 7-0, but a late consolation did its best to spare any bushes.

It’s just for fun, so see how you fare and share your Teamsheet score… full instructions on how to play are at the bottom of the article and in the game itself.

Best of luck!

HOW TO PLAY

The aim of the game is to score as few points as possible!

If you guess a player at the first attempt you score one point – so the lowest score for guessing every player at the first attempt is 11.

Guess a correct letter in the right position, and it’ll turn green. Guess a correct letter but in the wrong position, and it’ll turn yellow.

You have six guesses for each player – and if you fail, we’ll reveal their identity for 11 points! You can also ask for a free letter, but it costs you a point.

So play on to see if you’ll score the best possible total of 11 – or fail on every player and score 121.
