Declan Rice turned into a set-piece master to score two fantastic free kicks as Arsenal dispatched Real Madrid 3-0 at the Emirates to take a huge step towards the Champions League semi-finals on Tuesday night. Mikel Merino also got on the scoresheet for the Gunners as Mikel Arteta looks to salvage something from a disappointing season. Elsewhere there was contrasting fortunes for Aston Villa, who succumbed to a powerful PSG side in the French capital. Morgan Rogers' goal gave the Villans hope, but sensational strikes from Desire Doue, Kvicha Kvaratshkelia and Nuno Mendes inspired the Parisians to the win.

An action-packed Premier League weekend threw up plenty of talking points, but very few of those came in what has been described as the most boring Manchester Derby in years. Kevin de Bruyne's final Old Trafford test for City ended in a 0-0 bore draw with United, whilst Liverpool's defeat to Fulham - just their second of the season - couldn't be pounced on by Arsenal. Meanwhile, sorry Southampton saw their relegation confirmed, and they sacked Ivan Juric before we even had the chance to talk about it!

The latest instalment of the Merseyside derby didn't fail to entertain as James Tarkowski escaped a red card before Diogo Jota settled proceedings with the only goal of the game to move the Reds closer to the Premier League title. Arsenal won on Tuesday night to momentarily pressure Arne Slot's side, but it wasn't enough to cause the Slot machine to malfunction. Elsewhere, a Sandro Tonali unintentional screamer earned Newcastle a win over Brentford, leaving the Geordies in charge of the race for the top four, having played a game less than 4th placed Man City. And finally, Southampton moved within a point of finally matching Derby County's humiliating 11-point haul with a draw at home to Crystal Palace.

Niall and Marley are back and so is the Premier League! Domestic action has been missed but there's midweek action as we look towards the run-in, with 10 games to go. Man City's chances at finishing in the top four have been dealt a blow by the news that Erling Haaland is out for up to seven weeks, keeping the Norwegian out until around the time of the FA Cup final. Across Manchester, there's been rumours linking Bruno Fernandes with a move to Real Madrid, but with him being one of the few shining lights of a woeful United season, should Ruben Amorim entertain the thought of selling his captain?

However some problems remain, with square pegs being forced into round holes in Thomas Tuchel's lineups.
