Just reading this little piece on the BBC with Fraser Forster

 

Fraser Forster: Southampton 'want to have real go' in Europa League

 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36387873

 

This bit caught my eye

 

"We've got players who've played in the Champions League," said 28-year-old Forster.

 

My first thought was obviously Bertrand, Vic (not that he will be here) and Fraser. I guess VVD has as well? is there anyone else in the current saints squad who has played CL?

I think - Forster, Stek, Cedric, VVD, Bertand, Wanyama, Romeu, Davis, Clasie, Pelle.

 

Did Tadic ever make it?

 

Don't think Twente ever played in it. I think that list is pretty conclusive, apart from Gardos as mentioned above.

Mane played for Red Bull Salzburg (in the Qualifying Rounds).

I think Juanmi played twice for Malaga in 2012/13 (they won the group stage that year unbeaten and lost in the Round of 32, he apparently made 2 European appearances so must have played in some of those games).

Stekelenburg surely played for Ajax in the CL as well (don't think he did for Roma or Monaco although was probably on the bench for the latter).

Tadic never played CL for Vojvodina.
