After throwing away a three-goal cushion midweek in the Champions League, Arsenal again failed to hold onto a lead by conceding twice in less than three minutes at Swansea to drop out of the top four.

Spurs suffered another hangover after their Europa League commitments, losing at home to Stoke to fall to 12th in the standings and increase the scrutiny on new manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Newcastle is surged the table as Ayoze Perez scored for a third straight game in a 2-0 win at West Brom.

Also on Sunday, Everton drew 1-1 at Sunderland.
