– score out of 10

Aurelien Chedjou (5): His performance in the first half was pathetic as well as that of all Lille defense . He just made a better copy in the second half with his goal (60th) to reduce the score to face BATE Borisov (1-3).

John Obi Mikel (6): Regulator of the Blues game, he recovered a huge quantity of balls that allowed Londoners to highlight, especially Oscar, who scored twice. In the second period, his passes were not sure putting his team in trouble.

Sofiane Feghouli (5): Opposed to Bayern Munich and his offensive power, the Algerian could only see the damage . but he applied to defend well

Kwadwo Asamoah (6.5): he gave his best last night. Providing solutions helped by its aggressive percussion and his defensive skill s. An output that should be kept for the upcoming games.

Alex Song (4): Repositioned in central defense for his first appearance in the Champions League on Barça shirt after the injury of Gerard Piqué, the Cameroonian was not at the top. An evening to forget.

Emenike (6.5): The Nigerian was impressive last night. He made a lot of cross . One of this brought the first goal oh his team. A very encouraging performance.

Salomon Kalou (5): This is a little bit the Kalou we used to see at Chelsea. Very enterprising but lacking success in his dribbles. Her performance is still above those of his teammates in attack, especially Dimitri Payet and Tulio De Melo.
