In 2018, Apparently Nasri was ill advised during a tour in USA and took a immunity drip. Banned for 6 months.
In 2009, Kolo Toure took his wifes water tablets because of a misplaced perception that he was fat. - Banned for 6 months
In 2005, Abel Xavier took an anti viral medication which persuably contained a steroid - Banned for 12 months
In 2004, One word Mutu - Banned 7 months
