Fans have poked fun at Premier League stars for their geography knowledge – or lack thereof – with Chelsea’s Mykhailo Mudryk gaining special attention for his hilarious placement of Stamford Bridge.
Players from every club took part in a segment where they attempted to place the grounds of all 20 top-flight outfits in their correct geographical location.
The task was made simpler by generic markers which had been stuck onto locations up and down the country. All they had to do was select the right team for the right spot.
Though, admittedly, the mess of clubs in London, and to a lesser degree in the north west, made the challenge more difficult. Still, they would still be expected to correctly identify where their own ground is.
Not Mudryk. The Ukrainian international shocked and amused in equal measure with his choices.

One can only imagine how he reconciled the hour journey time to the Eagles ground when the two sides met in February.
Of the 20 players to participate, the winger finished with the lowest score, although, he was far from the only one who should be disappointed by their display.
Red Devils defender Diogo Dalot could only better Mudryk’s total of three correct answers by one, while Matty Cash, who, despite being a Poland international, has spent his entire career in England, could only manage of score of five.

On the better end of things were Nottingham Forest’s Anthony Elanga and West Ham midfielder Tomas Soucek, who both finished with a score of 18.
But they were outdone by two non-English players of London-based clubs; Chris Richards and Harry Wilson. Both completed the exercise with a perfect score.
