MAN U WIN TO GO 3RD

-
Man United climbed above Arsenal into third in the Premier League table for 24 hours at least with a 2-0 win at home to Sunderland.
Wayne Rooney, back up front, scored both goals with the first coming from the penalty spot. But there was controversy as referee Roger East wrong sent off Wes Brown when it was John O'Shea who brought down Radamel Falcao in the box.
Rooney grabbed a brace
Elsewhere, Aston Villa's troubles continued as a Papiss Cisse goal gave Newcastle a 1-0 win, a Kieran Tripper own goal saw Swansea win 1-0 at Burnley and Peter Crouch's 46th headed Premier League goal was enough for Stoke to beat Hull.
The final game between West Brom andSouthampton was decided by an early Saido Berhaino goal.
In the day's early game, Alan Pardew returned to Upton Park and saw his Crystal Palace side put West Ham United to the sword to increase the pressure on Sam Allardyce.
The 53-year-old spent three years as Hammers' boss and, whilst he has been back on several occasions, this will be one of the most memorable as Jason Puncheon inspired the Eagles to a 3-1 win -- although the victory was tainted as two-goal hero Glenn Murray was sent off in the second-half.
Murray had threatened on no less than three occasions before he opened the scoring courtesy of a huge piece of luck as the unwitting Aaron Cresswell mis-kicked the striker's header straight past Adrian. Scott Dann doubled the lead shortly after the break before Murray once again got his head to the ball first to make it three.
Murray got his second yellow of the match shortly afterwards and although Enner Valencia pulled a goal back the Hammers could not find a way back into the game.

Chelsea fan? Sorry, ignore that 😁 It's gonna be a crazee weekend, a weekend of hope for people like me going to the Etihad.

Sanchez's future remains unclear as he is set to enter the last year of his contract, but Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger reiterated on Tuesday that he will not sell the Chile international. And Mertesacker, who is retiring next season to take charge of Arsenal's academy, told Fox Sports in Australia that he is expecting to line up alongside Sanchez in his final year as a player. When asked if Sanchez is staying at Arsenal, Mertesacker said: "Yes, definitely. I think [Sanchez] was impressive in the Confederations Cup. He's now on holiday so it's quiet in terms of conversations. But he's a warrior on the pitch. "I think he wants to come back as quickly as possible -- he hates holidays, he hates to calm down. I'm looking forward to playing alongside him in my last season and he thinks the same." Arsenal are...
