Arjen Robben, Maxwel Cornet, Dries Mertens and Lionel Messi have been nominated for Champions League Player of the Week on Matchday 5.
Arjen Robben scored two iconic goals to help Bayern Munich get an emphatic 5-1 victory over Benfica and ease pressure on Niko Kovac.
Maxwel Cornet's double saw his team twice lead Premier League giants Manchester City and finally grab one point for Lyon.
Dries Mertens netted a brace to put the game beyond Red Star as Napoli now top Group C over PSG and Liverpool.
Lionel Messi showed two moments of genius as he scored one and assisted the other in Barcelona's 2-1 win over PSV.

It's really Injustice for Robben. Though I'm a messi fan I have to admit that this week Robben was unstoppable. You just can't vote messi blindly without judging the others. If messi/ronaldo/neymar scores these types of goals like robben did, the whole world would go crazy. Robben needs to come out on top for this week. So, don't vote if you can't judge the nominees.

We all know Aijen Robben is the player of the week with astonishing performance at Amsterdam but the main problem for our now world's vote is mostly on quality of the player not the quality of the goals so you should just know if Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi is in the list of the players of that week you can't win even if you 'scored on the moon'

It has to go for Robben for me. He turned in a world class performance at a time Bayern desperately needed someone to. It was like watching 2013 Robben again. He stepped up big time and both of his goals were beauties.

Though I'm a fan of Messi, but I think this week was all about Robben. His goals were flawless.
