When the leaders of the Super League got together, they proposed something radical: this was to be a closed competition. 

Relegation isn't exactly a threat to the biggest teams in Europe. Some of them have never tasted it in their history – at least they haven't from their domestic leagues. In Europe? That's another story.

Relegation exists in the Champions League, in the form of a drop-out system to the Europa League. Very rarely does a team fall from the top competition into the second tier, then go on to win it but it is supposed to make the Europa more exciting. 

So who's suffered that fate before? We're looking for 20 clubs who have finished third in a Champions League group, going straight to the Europa League. 10 of these sides are complete decoys, though all have played Champions League football in their time.
