Posted Wednesday 21st December 2011
It's a slow news day today and many are now on holiday until the New Year. So, following on from our hugely popular brain teasers from last year's festive period, here's a brand new one to tax your Arab mind over.
This is just for fun, but once you've completed it, send your 18 answers to webmaster@arabtrust.co.uk with the subject line 'Brain Teaser', and we'll let you know how you got on.
To play, take the first letter of each answer and re-order them to form the name of a United legend (and no! It's not the player pictured!).
Please don't spoil it for others by posting your answers online, but feel free to ask around your family, friends and work colleagues if you get stuck.
Good luck.
