5 things we learned from this weekend’s Premier League action

Everton are two points adrift of Burnley and Leeds with a game in hand.

Everton gave themselves a Premier League lifeline by beating Chelsea on a dramatic day at Goodison Park.

It is as you were at the top of the table and in the race for a top-four spot as title contenders Manchester City and Liverpool both won, as did Champions League contenders Arsenal and Tottenham.

Here, the PA news agency looks back at another eventful weekend in the top flight.

Same old Norwich

There was a familiar sinking feeling for Norwich as the Canaries were relegated from the Premier League for a record sixth time. It was a cruel irony for boss Dean Smith that the day of reckoning came at his former club Aston Villa, but just five wins all season meant the Canaries’ instant return to the Championship was inevitable. Summer signings failed to shine, Daniel Farke was gone by the start of November and now Smith – who oversaw a promotion campaign at Villa – faces the challenge of galvanising Norwich in the second tier.
