WOLVES 1-2 CHELSEA
The Londoners were in desperate need of 3 points to keep their top 4 aspirations alive and in the end they did enough to see off Wolves.
RAMIRES opened the scoring for the blues early into the second half, but after that Chelsea failed to get the 2nd and Wolves pegged them back through a brilliant finish from STEPHEN WARD. As the minutes passed by it looked like it would be yet another 1-1 draw for Chelsea, but in the last minute of regulation time TORRES put ASHLEY COLE through and he put in an inch perfect cross into the box which was tapped in by FRANK LAMPARD.
In the end, all though Wolves had a pretty decent game themselves, they didnt create enough opportunities and Chelsea just deserved the win. They however will have to sort out their defensive issues if they are to assure themselves a top 4 finish come the end of the season.
MAN OF THE MATCH: RAMIRES
ASTON VILLA 0 -2 SWANSEA
The swans earned their first away win of the season after they saw off a Villa side who put in a performance that was nowhere close to the one they had put up against Chelsea.
NATHAN DYER scored the first goal in the 4th minute after he capitalised on STEPHEN WARNOCK'S casual back pass. WAYNE ROUTLEDGE then made it two finishing handsomly into the bottom right corner( his 1st premier league goal). VIlla did try to get back in the game but Swansea were just too good for them.
MAN OF THE MATCH: NATHAN DYER
BLACKBURN 1-2 STOKE CITY
Blackburn were on a high after they beat the champions in their own backyard, but once again they failed to continue their good work as they succumbed to defeat at home.
Stoke played really well and were deserved victors courtesy of a brace from PETER CROUCH who tormented the Blackburn defense.
DAVID GOODWILLE did pull one back for BLACKBURN but they couldnt get the equaliser in the end.
MAN OF THE MATCH: PETER CROUCH

FULHAM 2-1 ARSENAL
The cottagers struck late to snatch all 3 points from Wengers men.
LAURENT KOSCIELNY put the gunners on top in the 21st minute as he headed in AARON RAMSEY'S cross. But after going in the lead Arsenal failed to get the killer second goal and were wasteful in the final third.
Fulham slowly started getting into the game and in the second half they created many chances, and then JOHAN DJOUROU received his marching orders for a second yellow card. Fulham took advantage of it and leveled matters through a STEVE SIDWELL header and in injury time BOBBY ZAMORA volleyed into the bottom corner to give them the win.
MAN OF THE MATCH: STEVE SIDWELL
