Well knock me sideways and call me Brian, what a second half that was. The stat from OptaJoe below says it all really. Manchester United and Manchester City do not lose on the same day. It just doesn't happen. But it did happen today. West Brom fully deserved their victory against David Moyes' side who are now TWELFTH in the table and officially nearer the relegation zone than the Champions League places. And what a result for Aston Villa. Few people, if anyone, gave them a chance of winning this afternoon but they have upset the odds. I'm going to avoid punning on his name but you simply have to watch Mutch's winner for Cardiff at Fulham. Early contender for goal of the season.

Sam Allardyce and his West Ham side will be furious with the decisions that went against them at Hull, while Crystal Palace didn't get much of a look in against Southampton. Oh and Mauricio Pochettino's side are up to fourth! All in all, when you add in the Spurs-Chelsea draw there is one side who have loved everything to have happened today: Arsenal. The north Londoners can move two points clear at the top of the table with victory over Swansea. That kicks off in half an hour so head on over to my colleague Ian McCourt's blog of that match here. Thanks for joining me. Until next time, cheerio.
