Just saw his name in an old line-up and went "oh yeah, that guy". Hadn't read or heard that name in years.

Lewis Holtby. Just signed for Blackburn.
Cuco Martina. Is he still on Everton books?
Dreadful full back who seems to have built a career in England on one goal v scored v Arsenal years back.

The guy played for Germany around the beginning of their golden generation era if I’m not mistaken.
Madness he’s now at Rovers! Shocked.
Facundo Ferreyra, lord knows what happened to him after all that hype from Shakhtar.
Leading the line for Espanyol in their europea league charge. He was also briefly at Newcastle.
Xherdan Shaqiri.
No wait that wasn't me, it's Klopp who has forgotten he existed.

He is a known alcoholic so maybe?
Chris Samba. If not for Kit Kat Chunkys.
Hugo Rodagella
Negredo, had one monstrous season for us and then left?
I doubt you remember him at all.
Giorgios Samaras came up on a Sporcle quiz I did the other day, that's a name that's not entered into my brain in years
I was on holiday in Japan last week and saw a shirt in a tat shop with Nakata on the back, before then I could only remember Kagawa from back in the day. Cant believe he had a short spell at Bolton.
Yohan Gourcuff
Michu
Smertin played for Chelsea around the time Abramovich bought the club, it was Arshavin who signed for Arsenal.
Dong Fangzhou
I remember seeing one of his first games for Spurs and thinking he was brilliant and going to be a great signing for them.
He then had the bad luck of being “managed” by Tim Sherwood and (at Fulham) Felix Magath, neither of whom helped his career.
Baba Rahman just scored an own goal for Mallorca.
Still a Chelsea player.
Still a Chelsea player.
George Boateng

Floribert Ngalula
Fred.
The name Timothee Atouba randomly popped into my head when I was busy at the gym yesterday. I have no idea why.
Vicent Janssen. scored about 5 goals since he left AZ (2015/16 season), now plays for Monterrey (!).
Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata, Nemanja Matic.
Folks swear to me these guys have been playing lately but I can't believe it. Not noticed them. I wish I could forget they existed.

Davy Klaassen
I also learned that Siem de Jong still plays for Ajax? His brother Luuk will soon be forgotten as well I reckon.

David Wheater just came to mind
Big Davey Wheater! was a beast in one of the fifas
This made me think of Shabani Nonda
Ali Al Habsi, I just followed him on Instagram. Seems to be doing well.
The Turkish league seems to be filled with tons of journeymen footballers. Just saw Papiss Cissé plays for one of the teams.
What an unfortunate looking lad he was.
Martial
Park Chu Young. PES legend.
Berbatov. Whenever I see his face screams went downhill without a fight.
Kagawa plays for Zaragoza now. 
Lee Grant exists, apparently. Plays for us, too. Crazy.
