PLAY TEAMSHEET: Can YOU name the Arsenal team that thrashed Leeds 5-0 back in 2004? Or pick YOUR team and guess their starting XI
Welcome back to Teamsheet... Mail Sport's original football memory game with a twist that gives you the chance to test your football knowledge against your mates. Today we are taking you back to a match in 2004, as Arsenal earned a crushing 5-0 victory over Leeds United at Highbury. The Gunners earned the victory on route to completing their invincible season, with one star scoring four goals in the same match for the club for the first time. The heavy defeat one one of 21 suffered by Leeds as they were relegated from the top flight. We want to see if you can name the line-up Arsene Wenger fielded for the match. 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. And you can also pick any team you like and guess their starting XI. 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.
