Garth Crooks’ team of the week: Foden, Alexander-Arnold, Kane, Greenwood, Bale, Shaw

In a week when all the drama was off the pitch, Manchester City edged closer to securing the Premier League title with a 2-1 win over Aston Villa.

Chelsea’s goalless draw with Brighton was enough to lift them into the Champions League spots after they beat Man City in the FA Cup semi-finals at the weekend, while Diego Llorente’s late equaliser for Leeds denied Liverpool the chance of a top-four spot.

Newcastle took a big step towards securing their top-flight status with a dramatic win against 10-man West Ham, but Sheffield United were relegated to the Championship after Wolves’ 1-0 win at Molineux.

Elsewhere, Mason Greenwood netted two goals in Manchester United’s 3-1 victory over Burnley, and Eddie Nketiah grabbed a stoppage-time goal for Arsenal in a 1-1 draw with Fulham, while Leicester celebrated reaching the FA Cup final with a comfortable 3-0 win over relegation-bound West Brom.
