In one of the only positives to come out of Tuesday evening for Arsenal, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain equalled a Champions League record for the season.

The 23-year-old was one of the standout stars in the first half against Bayern Munich as he continued to impress in his new central-midfield role.

And during the 5-1 defeat at the Emirates Stadium, Oxlade-Chamberlain managed to complete 10 successful dribbles, which, according to Opta’s statistics, has not been beaten in a Champions League game this season.

‘I think that’s Chamberlain’s best position playing in midfield, running from deep and breaking the line,’ former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand told BT Sport.




‘He’s a tremendous player.’

Monaco winger Nabil Dirar also registered 10 dribbles in their 3-0 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen in the group stage.

Neymar, meanwhile, is one of four players whose highest is seven dribbles in a Champions League game this season.

Bernardo Silva also completed seven dribbles in Monaco’s 5-3 defeat to Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium last month.

Juan Cuadrado managed the same for Juventus in their win over Dinamo Zagreb in the group stage, as did Sporting winger Gelson Martins against Real Madrid.
