Your post reminds me of how much results here influence my posts.
Had we lost last week, I'd probably angrily post that the fact ex-players have gone on to such great things, how much of a damning indictment that represents to our past mistakes in tactics, coaching etc. etc.
But since we've won, I'll just say - isn't it kind of cool when you see ex-Stoke players playing in the Champions League? (That's usually my reaction)
Except for Jese of course, who was very lucky to have had any type of career - a clueless individual whom we never should have brought here in the first place. (We didn't have a Schumacher then who would have either sorted him out or GOT him out)

I doubt if that stat can continue in years to come. I mean who in the current squad or those of the last six years had players who will play for a Champions Leegue Semifinalist? It's quite possible that some, especially a talent on loan, can go on and play in the early stages of the competition for some obscure team. Maybe Iversen will eventually play for Copenhagen and so is almost guaranteed to play CL games, but unlikely to ever get that far.

I doubt the stat will continue with later players.
