Former Manchester United and Real Madrid winger Angel Di Maria is among them after scoring his first goal for the French champions in their 2-0 win over Malmo in Group A on Tuesday night.

Only one of the four Premier League sides managed to get a player selected after a disappointing opening round which saw Chelsea emerge as the sole winners thanks to their 4-0 victory over Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Blues' midfielder Cesc Fabregas gets the nod after scoring one and creating another goal for Diego Costa in the Group G win on Wednesday evening.

Malmo's goalkeeper had a busy night in the French capital, with the hosts having 22 shots compared to Malmo's six. The 2-0 scoreline to PSG might have been a lot worse withuot 34-year-old Sweden stopper Wiland.

Netherlands international Gregory van der Wiel, 27, has been at PSG since 2012 and is a force both defensively and going forward. He was one of his side's star men in the easy victory over Malmo.

Are there many better defenders in Europe than the Brazilian? He made four clearances to keep Malmo at bay and snuff out any potential comeback. The skipper led from the front.

Bayern Munich enjoyed more than 70% possession in their 3-0 victory against Olympiakos, with 23-year-old Austrian David Alaba helping his team keep control of the ball.

Maxwell, who has been at PSG since 2012, will have tougher tests to come than against Malmo, but the 34-year-old Brazilian limited the threat down the flanks from the Swedes, who knocked out Celtic in qualifying last month.

Wolfsburg just edged CSKA Moscow with a 1-0 victory and much of his team's dominance of possession was down to the German international.

Chelsea strolled to a 4-0 victory over Maccabi Tel Aviv, with Cesc Fabregas dominating the midfield battle. The Spain international played 125 passes - 55 more than anyone else.
