The Premier League’s big boys were back in action this weekend following the winter break, with Liverpool and Arsenal players catching the eye.

Elsewhere, the Serie A title race took another twist as Lazio beat Inter, while there was some wonderful sh*thousery as Celta Vigo earned a point at Real Madrid.

We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the pitch.

Bukayo Saka

He’s too pure for this world.

Saka reacting to his nutmeg is the best thing you’ll watch today. “Whooooops.” 😂 pic.twitter.com/88dnzbfVFJ

Jordan Henderson

A pass that would make Xabi Alonso go weak at the knees.

Paulo Dybala

Too easy.

Chris Porter

This genuinely makes us feel anxious.

Open goal, 1⃣2⃣ yards out…

Is this the miss of the season from @crewealexfc’s Chris Porter? 🤯#EFLonQuest – Saturdays at 9pm | #CreweAlex pic.twitter.com/ce7HIJa0gI

Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk

This is silly.

Joe Gomez and Virgil Van Dijk’s record since being restored as a partnership in the PL on December 14.
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0.
Raul Jiminez the only player to score against Liverpool in the last 990 PL minutes ⚽️ 🔴

Son Heung-min

Still not enough to stop Jose Mourinho taking the p*ss out of him.

Sergej Milinkovic-Savic

Celta Vigo

Some wonderful sh*thousery.

Unsportsmanlike conduct from the Celta Vigo bench: Kicks in the ball mid-game against Real Madrid from r/soccer

Klaas Jan Huntelaar

Dead good to putting the ball in the back of the net.

400 – Klaas Jan Huntelaar has now scored 400 goals for club & country, including 151 for @AFCAjax. Milestone. pic.twitter.com/YJxCTAbmMR

Antonio Candreva

Utterly pointless, which makes it all the more charming.

We genuinely admire Antonio Candreva for the most underwhelming no-look pass of all time.pic.twitter.com/VN7fRoSR8k

Remember Gaël Kakuta?

Well, he's just produced this worldy! 🎯
