3. Chelsea were lucky as the Citizens stutter to victory:
The weekend kicked off with Chelsea earning a crucial win at home against a resilient Everton side who didn’t deserve to lose. John Terry’s lunge from a Frank Lampard free-kick gave the Blues the win in what might prove to be of immense significance come at the end of May. Elsewhere, Manchester City stuttered to victory against Stoke City and the Citizens might find themselves nine points off the top as they tackle Wigan in the FA Cup, the Capital One Cup final and a Herculean task at Barcelona in the Champions League before they take the pitch for their next Premier League fixture.
