Jonathan David's Juve audition goes well as he nets in 1-1 draw while goalie Chevalier shone again. So what are Chelsea and Arsenal doing?

Champions League, Matchday 4

LOSC 1-1 Juventus

Goals: J.David 27' (L), Vlahovic pen 60' (J)

If that was Jonathan David's Juventus audition he definitely passed it with flying colours.

The Canadian, who is also on Chelsea's bucket list (but then again, who isn't?) gave Lille the lead in yesterday's 1-1 draw with the Old Lady before Dusan Vlahovic erased it with an early second-half penalty.

With the scores level and Juve dominating the ball, David made the most of Edon Zhegrova's telegraphed through ball into space. He raced on it before coolly sweeping past Michele di Gregorio.

Either side of it ex-Arsenal target Dusan Vlahovic had two chances to get Juventus off the mark.

He sent a volley wide from an acute angle after being picked out by Kenan Yildiz. And after his side fell behind, he connected well with Manuel Locatelli's delivery but saw his effort on the turn spectacularly tipped over by Lucas Chevalier.

England international Angel Gomes was anonymous throughout and hooked for Ngal'ayel Mukau 10 minutes after the restart.

And while Lille appeared to be content with coming out to defend the lead in the second period, Juventus didn't do much more after Serbian Vlahovic threw them a lifeline.

They had a half-chance here and one there with Teun Koopmeiners ramming one over in a mundane last half-hour of the game.

All things considered the French are the happier of the two as Juve arguably produced more throughout the whole game.

Yet not losing if you're outplayed is a mark of a great side and, injuries permitting, Lille could be the surprise package of this year's Champions League.

Yesterday's stalemate against Serie A supremos Juventus was preceded by shock wins Real Madrid, Atletico and an impressive draw against Ruben Amorim's Sporting Lisbon.

Which becomes all the more impressive after the Portuguese side's 4-1 mauling of Man City yesterday.

With Chevalier, Zhegrova and David they have many a player who are already turning the heads of Europe's biggest clubs including Chelsea, the Gunners and Tottenham Hotspur.

The Blues could do with a new world-class goalkeeper after Sanchez's erratic form. Whereas Arsenal should try and end off Juve's interest in the highly-rated 24-year-old striker to solve their ongoing no.9 issues.
