It is rare for Conor McGregor to not feature in such a list so it is unsurprising to see him pop up after his historic win over Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205.

He was not quite as diplomatic as Ronald Koeman, the Everton boss saying that the Premier League front runners come from Merseyside, just not the blue half.

Elsewhere, Dominic Thiem came face-to-face with one of his sporting idols and Nathan Hughes was remarkably honest about the drive behind his switch from Fiji to England.

But our favourite from the week?

That has to be Tampa Bay Buccaneers receiver Mike Evans reflecting on Donald Trump’s election as American president, likening it to an episode of Punk’d.
