Six players are in line tomorrow to join the list of players who have won the European Cup with more than one club. Naming those six isn't a bad timewaster to begin with, but what's the all-time list? I don't have the answer, btw, this isn't a quiz.

EIM, you didnt even have to think about that one?Comment

Not a bad pre-CL final timewaster ...
Well. I had to think of the players who had won it once before with a team that wasn't the one they'll be playing for tomorrow.
But other than that, no.
I'll get cracking on the second part of the question after I've had a poo. And possibly while I'm having a poo, too.Comment

Anelka as well? Did he play in the CL final for Madrid?Comment

Points off for spelling aside, that's tomorrow's list, yeah, as best as I can make it out. So them, and Seedorf, aside, how many others are there?
Did Frank Rijkaard return from Milan to help Ajax beat them in 1995? He'd be one, if so.Comment

Who are the six, though?
Van der Saar (Ajax), Shevchenko (Milan), Carvalho (Porto), and Makelele (Real Madrid) are four.
Did Hargreaves win a medal at Bayern?Comment

Rijkaard is one. So is Desailly. Deco is another. I'll guess at Koeman and Gullit.Comment

Ah, way slow.
Yes, Rijkaard was on the 95 Ajax team.Comment

Hang on, Belletti could be another tomorrow. Couldn't he?Comment
-
Not a bad pre-CL final timewaster ...
Yes, he could be.
Koeman yes (PSV and Barca), Gullit no (only Milan).Comment

Didier Deschamps is another.Comment

Some other guesses: Redondo (Real Madrid and Milan), Deschamps (OM and Juve), Panucci (Real Madrid and Milan), Beleodici (Red Star and Steaua, under different spellings of his name).
Jurgen Kohler? Savicevic?Comment

As is Dejan SavicevicComment

Jimmy Rimmer?
Did he get a medal with Man Utd?
Or are we are only talking about guys who actually played in finals?Comment

Did Peter Withe win with both Forest and Aston Villa?Comment

Ooh, Jimmy Rimmer could be a good call. They did use to give medals (I think) to unused players on the bench - there used to be a trick question about who was the only English footballer to have won two European Cups and an FA Cup, and the answer was Steve Ogrizovic (who was on Liverpool's bench for two European finals, and won the FA Cup with Coventry, whereas Phil Neal never won the FA Cup).Comment

Not a bad pre-CL final timewaster ...
I am assuming without looking that Ballack hasnt been close?Comment
-
Not a bad pre-CL final timewaster ...
I think Ballack lost in the final when he played for Leverkusen.Comment
-
Not a bad pre-CL final timewaster ...
there are 8?
belletti, shevchenko, makelele, Anelka, ferreira, carvalho
VDS, HargreavesComment

Mind if I jump in with a question of my own?
Carlos Tevez could add a European Cup to the two Copas Libertadores he won with Boca Juniors. So, who was the last player to win both trophies?
And since that probably won't take very long... who was the last Argentine to win them both?
I don't know the answer to the second one, by the way, and I'm buggered if I'm going to work it out right now because it's 2am. But have fun with it while I'm sleeping.Comment

Is the first one Ricardo Oliveira (Sao Paulo and Milan)?
The Argentine has me stumped. Did Solari win the Libertadores?
Ballack did lose in the final for Leverkusen.Comment
