How do I select a middle part of an hyper-link as you see in the image above?

You can also suggest me a browser extension or a userscript that converts all links to text in a selected sub part of the page after pressing a hot-key.

(Browser: Google Chrome)

Try the ToggleLink add-on.

Interestingly, I just found out that pressing Alt allows you to select part of a link with the mouse in Firefox! See if by some chance that works in Chrome as well.

Windows – Middle clicking a link on chrome sometimes also switches the current tab to the new one

The table row that those player links are on uses the following HTML/JS code:

<tr class="wide_middle" id="/replays/45470"
    onmouseover='document.getElementById("/replays/45470").className = "wide_middle_hover";'
    onmouseout='document.getElementById("/replays/45470").className = "wide_middle";'
    onClick="window.location = 'replays/45470'" ... ...

Therefore if you middle click the link you are also in effect clicking the table row, hence why the JavaScript then changes the current tab to the target page as well.

Installing this extension should be able to fix the problem.
