Wolverhampton Wanderers have
moved off the bottom of the Premier League following the superb win over
Manchester United. Leeds now prop up the table whilst Chelsea were
unable to follow Arsenal`s win against Birmingham City at Stamford
Bridge.
Just two teams in the
bottom half of the Premiership won this weekend, one of which was Spurs
who beat Wednesdays opponents Liverpool, whilst the other was Wolves who
were able to see off a full strength Manchester United team.
Wolves` win changes both
ends of the Premier League in dramatic circumstances. Should Manchester
United have won at Molineux, they would have gone four points clear at
the top of the Premiership, however it is now Arsenal who sit in top
place.
Two goals from Henry,
either side of the break, earned Arsenal the points in a deserved 2-0
win at Villa Park. However Chelsea were unable to take Wolves surprise
present with both hands as they were unable to see off a determined
Birmingham City Side.
Meanwhile, at the bottom,
Leicester threw away three points, 10 Man Pompey lost at Bolton and
Leeds moved into bottom place.
Leicester were leading 3-1
going into added time at the Riverside Stadium, but two late dramatic
goals were enough to earn Middlesbrough a point.
A Kevin Davies goal was
enough to keep the 3 points in Bolton, despite strong pressure from
Portsmouth and cash-troubled Leeds United were unable to take anything
away from the St Marys Stadium.
Leicester, Wolves and Leeds United
now occupy the bottom three.
