"Aston Villa have not managed to out-shoot many teams this season, so to do so against (one of) the league leaders is possibly a sign of improvement. Which makes it a bit of shame that they are now further from safety than previously due to those closest to them having good weekends, notably Newcastle and Swansea."

"# Bournemouth 3-0 Norwich\n",

"# Chelsea 3-3 Everton\n",
"\n",
"A very entertaining game with a bit of controversy at the end. However, it's hard to make the case that Chelsea didn't deserve a draw overall. On a non-stat related note, I don't have much love for John Terry, but I was surprised that no-one on MOTD mentioned that although his draw-saving goal was clearly off-side, it was a pretty good finish.\n",
"\n",
"It's hard to really see Chelsea as relegation candidates, but it's hard not to comment on the fact that they are just 4 points from safety. However, they are equally just 5 points from 10th placed Southampton. Chelsea are currently 8th for team rating, and it does not seem entirely unlikely that they could end the season there. Whilst Southampton and Liverpool stand between Chelsea in 8th there is a trio of teams above 8th who **could** slip back in Crystal Palace, Stoke City and West Ham United."

Having said that Tottenham are one of the best teams in the league, so perhaps away to Tottenham is just not the kind of game relegation scrappers have much hope for."
