Arsenal sit top of the Premier League after a comfortable 3-1 win at home to Stoke with Ramsey scoring his second goal this week having netting in the Champions League in midweek, Stoke equalised through Cameron but goals from Sagna and Mertesacker sealed a win for the Gunners.
Spurs joined them at the top with a last minute winner via the Paulinho's cheeky back heel which broke Cardiff hearts as they came seconds away from a famous draw to add to their scalp of Man City earlier in the season.
Speaking of Man City, they came out on top in the Manchester derby and in some style as Aguero and Toure put them two up at the break against a Van Persie less United who were 4-0 down within 50 minutes and got a late consolation courtesy of a spectacular Rooney free-kick but the bragging rights went to City.
The other Sunday game saw Swansea who had stunned Valencia at the Mestalla on Thursday quash any thoughts of a hangover with a 2-0 win away to Crystal Palace thanks to goals from Michu and Dyer.
The biggest shock on Saturday came at Anfield as Southampton took all three points after a Lovren header which ended Liverpool's unbeaten run and meant they were likely to drop of the top of the league.
Their stay at the top ended hours later as Chelsea replaced them after winning 2-0 at home to Fulham with Oscar starting what has become a trend this weekend of scoring in Europe and the league but the second goal was a big surprise as Mikel tapped in for his first ever league goal having made his debut back in 2006.
In the early kick off, Aston Villa claimed a 1-0 win over Norwich thanks to a goal from summer signing Kozak but a injury to Benteke will have the Villa camp worried as he has been their talisman this season.
At half time at Newcastle after a brace from on loan Loic Remy sandwiched a Brady equaliser, home fans could be forgiven for thinking a win was on the horizon as Hull came back to win 3-2 with a quick goal from Elmohamady and a 76th minute winner from Aluko on the same day his sister had scored for England, so smiles all around for the Alukos then and jubilation for Hull.
Another comeback took place for an away side as Everton defeated ten man West Ham 3-2, the Hammers took the lead through Ravel Morrison and were pegged back by a superb free-kick from Leighton Baines but a strange last fifteen minutes changed the game and the outcome.
Mark Noble was booked, scored and penalty and then was sent off between the 68th and 81st minute and Everton took advantage as Baines fired in a second superb free-kick before on loan Romelu Lukaku connected with a Mirallas cross to score the winner but knocked himself out and didn't even realise he had scored a famous winner.
A result that has made headline news though was West Brom's 3-0 victory over Sunderland which saw former Black Cat, Sessegnon open the scoring before second half goals from Ridgewell and Amalfitano confirmed that Sunderland stayed rock bottom of the league and still winless.
After the final whistle, manager Paolo Di Canio apologised to the angry fans in the away end something many other managers wouldn't dare to do and at the time of writing he has been dismissed after a verbal lashing out to the players in training today so yet another managerial casualty for a winless side which is seeming to happen every season.
Sunderland's woe is likely to deepen as they face Liverpool and Man United in the next two weeks with both trying to get back to winning ways.
