    How many Watford players have won a World Cup, Euro’s or Champions League? (Obviously not while playing for us but before or after leaving us)

    Filippo Galli is the only one i can think of who won the Champions League/European Cup with AC Milan 3 times amongst a load of other trophies.
    Probably the most decorated player to have played for us?

    If you include UEFA and Cup Winners Cup there must be quite a few more...Pat Jennings, Mark Falco, Paul Millar(?) with Spurs? Kevin Richardson with Everton (?). Am so busy at work I haven’t got time to look any of these up

    Stupidly I remembered JuanFran had won the Euros with Spain in 2012...
    ...And then I remembered it was the “other” JuanFran we had who made zero appearances for us 2015-2017

    I have just checked and all the above are correct - Paul Millar even scored in the first leg of the final and falco scored a pen in the shootout (1984). Spurs were managed by Keith Burkenshaw too

    Ashley Young? Must have won a Champions League under Fergie? Happy to be corrected of course.

    Just checked and it was the Europa League he won in 2017.

    I actually thought Tom Cleverley may have been on the bench in Man Utd’s 2008 Champions League win over Chelsea but no he wasnt, must have been a year before he came through there.
