    Kevin Ratcliffe won a European Cup Winners Cup Final with Everton (Alan Harper was on the bench). Former City coach Alan Sealey scored both goals in West Ham's 2-0 1965 Cup Winners Cup win over Munich 1860. Kevin McDonald played regularly in Liverpool's 1985/86 double winning team.

    Clive Thomas represented Wales at 2 World Cups but dont think that counts.

    Adrian Alston played in the 1974 World Cup before signing for City. He also performed the 'Cruyff' turn a week before Cruyff did it himself (according to wiki)
