Champions League Barometer

Who's Hot

  • Bafetimbi Gomis

    The Lyon striker helped his side into the last 16 with the fastest ever Champions League hat-trick when scoring three times in seven minutes to break Mike Newell's record for Blackburn.

  • Andre Villas-Boas

    Under extreme pressure, the Chelsea boss ditched his high defensive line and was rewarded with a fine performance from his side as they defeated Valencia 3-0 to qualify for the last 16.

  • Mathieu Valbuena

    With Olympiacos tentatively celebrating their place in the next round, the Marseille midfielder popped up with a superb late winner to ensure that instead it was the French side who qualified.

  • Napoli

    The Italian club beat Manchester City to second spot in Group A thanks to a 2-0 win at Villarreal and have not enjoyed this much success in Europe since the days of Maradona.

  • Barcelona

    The Spanish champions fielded a reserve side against BATE Borisov in their final group game but still sauntered to a 4-0 victory as they topped Group H by seven points.

Who's Not

  • The city of Manchester

    Manchester City's Champions League exit was at least predictable; United's was just shocking. England's two most powerful clubs now find themselves in the Europa League.

  • Wayne Rooney

    The striker was guilty of a glaring miss as Manchester United slumped to a devastating 2-1 defeat at FC Basel. The striker has scored just one goal in his past eight matches.

  • Arsenal's goalkeepers

    After Lukasz Fabianski went off injured in a defeat at Olympiacos, his replacement Vito Mannone conceded a comical goal. Thank God for the rested Wojciech Szczesny.

  • Ajax

    The Dutch side looked destined for a place in the last 16 as Lyon required a swing of seven goals to snatch second place behind Real Madrid. They got no less than nine.

  • Dinamo Zagreb

    Despite going 1-0 up to Lyon, they capitulated in humiliating fashion when eventually losing 7-1 at home. And this from a team who were 4-0 down after 20 minutes against Real.
