Since it became the Champions League in 1992, no team has retained the title. When it was the European Cup, a number of teams did retain it:
Real Madrid: 1956, 1957, 1958, 1959, 1960.
AC Milan: 1989, 1990.
Bayern Munich: 1974, 1975, 1976.
Liverpool: 1977, 1978.
Ajax: 1971, 1972, 1973.
Inter Milan: 1964, 1965.
Benfica: 1961, 1962.
Nottingham Forest: 1979, 1980.
Champions league contenders. 4th place premier league. One of the best team in the world.

The Trophy, Automatic Qualification for the next one
THe Champions League final is a one-game play-off. The team which wins the match wins the trophy, unlike the 2-legged knockout rounds
Chelsea at the moment are the top team winning the champions league (champions of Europe) and the F.A cup (all English teams verus) Manchester City won the top English league. So I say one of them
No one has successfully defended their Champions League title (the closest are Milan - winners 94, runners up 95 - and Juventus - winners 96, runners up 97 and 98). The last team to defend the European Cup was Milan in 1989 and 1990.
So far no one has manged to won UCL title 2 years in a row, this year Real Madrid will have a chance to be the first team to achieve that.
Yes he is cup tied if he has made an appearance in the League qualifiers. Any appearance in the Champions league tournament makes a player cup-tied to one team till the end of the tournament.
I think you are referring to the 2011 Champions lEague final. If that is the case, Barcelona won the Champions league final. They won 3-1.
