Liverpool, Arsenal, Everton and Leeds United players all caught our eye this week.

The Champions League and Europa League took centre stage as both competitions hosted their semi-finals.

But their has also been plenty of action in the domestic leagues and some big news off the pitch – including a brilliant cameo at one of The Streets’ gigs.

Goran Pandev

A goal so aesthetically pleasing it made us do an article on the best chipped efforts.

Bobby Madley

Who would be a referee?

Bobby Madley tries to apologize to Newcastle players for missing a handball then loses his cool when they keep calling him out for it. this is hilarious. pic.twitter.com/jXJiWNfPTC

Seamus Coleman

Everton’s 1-0 victory over Newcastle United may not have been easy on the eye, but it’s hard not to appreciate this defensive work from Coleman.

Marcelo

Watch this and try not to go ‘ooooohhhhhh’.

We need a real moment of silence for this casual Marcelo trap. This is wild. pic.twitter.com/kObSS2NRNY

Tony Adams

Our favourite photo of the week – and possibly the year – by quite some distance.

Pablo Hernandez

Leeds United fans are delighted at the news Hernandez has signed a new two-year deal at the club, and our Rob is certain he was the one who convinced the Spaniard to stay at Elland Road.

Don't want to take all the credit for this, but after the game on Saturday he stopped at some traffic lights outside the bar I was in and awkwardly gave me a thumbs up as I sang his name. My hero, my mate. https://t.co/9XqHVy7Zna
