Eight teams remain in the Champions League - which players would our writers select for their best combined XI?

Do you want to understand the biggest story of the day before anyone else? The has reached the quarter-final stage and some of the world’s best players will be taking part in the two-legged ties. It all begins with vs Bayern Munich and vs on April 9 before Paris Saint-Germain host and visit Atletico Madrid on April 10.

He gets the nod over Madrid’s third-choice shot-stopper Andriy Lunin, who deserves a lot of credit for how well he has stood in for Thibaut Courtois at Kepa Arrizabalaga’s expense. Advertisement Pau Cubarsi is the hype pick. I got to see him in the flesh in the last round and the kid can not only ping it, he isn’t afraid to step in front of some of this competition’s scariest strikers. Cubarsi’s youthfulness encouraged me to go with Ruben Dias’ experience over William Saliba.
