UEFA Champions League 2018/19 - Ranking the last 8 clubs

#5 Manchester United

Player to watch - Paul Pogba

Arsenal FC v Manchester United - Premier League

What a difference three months can make in he course of a club's history, as The Red Devils have been totally reborn since the appointment of Ole Gunner Solksjaer.

Under previous manager Jose Mourinho, United were in danger of sliding into mediocrity as the club was beguiled by player-manager clashes as well as an overall air of negativity.

Their renaissance has been sparked by an upturn in performance levels of a number of players, while attacking football has been returned to Old Trafford.

In the last round, a Romelu Lukaku inspired display saw United come back from a 2-0 first leg home deficit to eliminate French moneybags PSG with a 3-1 victory and with such belief, there might be no limit to what the legendary United can achieve.

#4 Liverpool

Player to watch - Sadio Mane

Liverpool have made undeniable progress since Jurgen Klopp arrived at Anfield, growing from the mediocrity of the start of this decade into genuine title contenders.

The Reds have entertained with their exhilarating attacking brand of football and made their fans start believing in the club once more.

The addition of Virgil Van Dijk has helped turn Liverpool's defense into a fortress, which in addition to the displays of the ever threatening trio of Mo Salah, Bobby Firmino and Sadio Mane means that Liverpool would fancy their chances against anyone

Having reached the final last season, Klopp would be eager to take his team one step further and who knows, this time around, they could just go all the way.
