Which four Scottish players have won Premier League medals?

I've managed to get three of them, but I can't for the life of me think of the fourth. I've managed to come up with Colin Hendry, Darren Fletcher and Brian McClair.

Thats the one - never realised he played enough games to earn a medal until I saw that.

I think Gallacher spent that season with a broken leg.

Bergkamp, Overmars, Van Nistelrooy and Hasselbaink, to get the obvious ones out of the way.

Edit: had to look up the spelling for Van Nistelrooy, but Spyman got him.

Van Persie, Van Nistelrooy, and Van Hooijdonk?

Not sure Overmars would be on the list. He didn't stay that long and was a winger. I'd guess Kluivert ahead of him.

Yeh, Kuyt could be a shout - or Kluivert as I've edited in above.

Van Persie
Van Nistelrooy
Hasslebaink
Bergkamp

all definite.

Kuyt
Kluivert
Van Hooijdonk
maybe Overmars

2 from the 4 above.

Spyman is spot on - his four certain picks are correct.

The other two were Marc Overmars and Dirk Kuyt.

I remember Chelsea signing a Brazilian lad called Mineiro from my German team, Hertha Berlin, but I'm not sure whether he ever played for them in the Premier League.
