Manchester United got the latest reminder of just how big the gap is between themselves and those teams chasing a top four finish as they were thrown around by Newcastle United on Sunday.
Tottenham Hotspur had a similarly distressing weekend, losing 4-2 at Wolves, while Chelsea and Manchester City spared their blushes with a 2-2 draw and 5-2 win respectively having both gone down 2-0 in games against Ipswich Town and Crystal Palace.
Liverpool pulled themselves within six points of the Premier League title after Arsenal's draw at home to Brentford was paired with the Reds' slender win at Anfield against West Ham.
