Today, the Champions League last-16 ties were revealed with one of the standout ties being Chelsea against PSG.
But as Ben Lyttleton told us on Off The Ball, all does not seem to be well for the French champions or manager Laurent Blanc as they slipped to a 1 - 0 defeat at Guingamp.
"There was a big headline 'Warning for Blanc'. He's under pressure. The likes of Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva - big name players - have the ear of the president and are not impressed with Blanc's tactical changes or lack of them in the big games. This was a big knock on him last year as well when Chelsea were there for the taking. He was too cautious," said Ben.
Meanwhile, Monaco will take on their former manager Arsene Wenger, with the Arsenal boss a popular figure among the club's fans.
Wenger was in the principality for seven years from the late-80s to the early '90s and Ben explained that some parallels remain from his Arsenal philosophy.
"It really defined his philosophy in France because Marseille were the big spenders and winning titles that they potentially would not have won and Monaco should have won. Arsene Wenger took very against the idea of financial doping at that stage. But now Monaco are only in the Champions League because they broke FFP rules to sign Falcao, Moutinho and James Rodriguez. I feel like it's a modern day parable."
Ben also touched on the tie between Borussia Dortmund and Juventus.
