Were it not for a bizarrely early international retirement, Kevin-Prince Boateng wouldn't even have played against Arsenal this week. Whereas the Gunners couldn't select Gervinho after he represented the Ivory Coast in the Africa Cup of Nations final, Boateng didn't play at the tournament where his Ghana side achieved fourth place.

And in this, Boateng surely holds the record for the least amount of time between international debut and international retirement. It was June 2010, shortly before Ghana's excellent World Cup display, that Boateng turned out for the Black Stars for the first time. His impact on debut was impressive and he became a key player in their run to the quarterfinal, driving the side's counterattacks from the heart of midfield.
