[Scaring Europe to Death]

Assume it was the last 3 champions league winners - Madrid , Chelsea & Bayern - but no idea who they played or the scores - Just assume they won.

Yep. My guess would be the same

Just googled and the last 10 winners have all been the CL Winners. Chelsea were the last CL team to lose the Final (2012)

Is there any prize money involved.

Not much of a competition then. Just a money spinner and the chance for non Euro clubs to have a shot at the best. Ups our profile mind and potentially helps drive up revenue and gives us a chance of another new shiny trophy which I like.

Beat me to it , but better guess for opposition. No idea who won any non European leagues - me bad.

I definitely googled them mate!

In Dubai and Doha before I arrive. And back in Blighty the day after the final. I am prepared for the dry days.

City wouldn't get up in the morning for $5m.

Treble that and we might send a couple of first team players to play with the EDS team.
