Only a few days ago it was reported about how Arsenals almost
perfect run in
the Premier League and also in Europe placed them on top of
Eurosports
Champions League European Power Ranking
Well how things can change. According to Eurosports Power Ranking,
Arsenal
have now been overtaken by rivals Manchester United as Europes top
club.
United although defeated by Bolton last Saturday remain the only
team left in the
Champions League with a 100 percent record.
This is due to Ronaldo's late winner against Sporting Lisbon making
it five wins
out of five. Arsenal however were beaten at Sevilla.
Chelsea and Liverpool also improved their position due to their
wins in Europe
giving the top of the table a distinctly English flavour.
Werder Bremen are the big risers with a 3-2 win over Real Madrid.
They are up
seven places to 12th.
Meanwhile Celtic sneaked into the top 20 at Slavia Prague's expense
thanks to
their last-gasp win against Shakhtar Donetsk.
