    Last October, a fan rang in to 5 live Sport to say that Chelsea had 'outgrown the Premier League'. 

    A year on, with his team 15th in the table and six defeats, does he stand by his claim? Of course he does

    If you are here for a hipster team of the week in the Champions League, featuring Felipe Pardo of Olympiakos, you are going to be disappointed.  

    There are no shocks in this one.

    Germany forward Thomas Muller weighed in with two goals, and Barcelona duo Neymar and Luis Suarez join him in attack after scoring in their win over BATE Borisov.  

    Have a look for yourself here and see if you agree with the team...

    The Champions League Team of the Week is supplied by Opta and is based on more than 250 calculations.

    The sackings of Chris Powell and Chris Ramsey were "disheartening", says anti-racism campaigner Troy Townsend.

    Powell departed Huddersfield and Ramsey left QPR to leave four managers from black, Asian and minority ethnic (BME) backgrounds in the top four divisions.

    Last week the FA's newly appointed BME boss Wayne Allison said he wanted to increase the number of black coaches.

    Townsend said: "I know people will say results are not right but there is a lot more to it than that."

    Hibernian strolled impressively into the semi-finals of the Scottish League Cup with a commanding victory over Premiership outfit Dundee United.

    A thumping first-half hit from full-back David Gray, a Jason Cummings penalty on the hour and a deflected Lewis Stevenson shot in the last seconds put Alan Stubbs' team into the last four.

    United had a chance to make a fight of it when Simon Murray was put through 12 minutes from time, but Mark Oxley in the Hibs goal denied the striker.

    "When the Apocalypse comes, I imagine Alastair Cook will still be out there batting - ready to face the next ball and wondering where everyone else has gone. He brings up his 46th Test half-century with a single down to backward square".

    The Times have suggested Jose Mourinho has been "saved" from the sack by Willian's free-kick from 25 yards.

    The Daily Mail

    ...Honourable mention to The Daily Mail, who haven't lead with the "mullered" line but it's there if you look hard enough...

    The majority of the papers are dominated by the image of Brazilian attacker Willian celebrating his last minute winner against Dynamo Kiev. 

    Chelsea eased the pressure on manager Jose Mourinho with a 2-1 win in the Champions League group stage.

    Just a warning. 

    A small minority of this morning's papers have lead with Arsenal's 5-1 beating against Bayern Munich, in last night's champions league group stages. 

    But, those who have, have gone with some sort of pun on Thomas Muller's name...

    The Mirror is your first example...
