Arsenal shoved Chelsea off the top of the table but Leicester City's Jamie Vardy, with a dazzling hat-trick, was the man of the moment on Saturday as the struggling Premier League champions blew aside Manchester City 4-2.

With Chelsea chasing a ninth win in a row when it hosts West Bromwich Albion on Sunday, when third-placed Liverpool also hosts West Ham United, Arsenal seized its chance to take the overall lead by beating Stoke City 3-1 at the Emirates.
