Southampton thrashed title holders Leicester City 3-0 while Bournemouth and Watford played out an entertaining two-all draw.
In what was another action-packed week of football, we take a look at who makes the cut to our Team of the Week for game week 22:
Formation: 4-4-2
Lee Grant (GK)
The Stoke City goalkeeper was excellent on Saturday against Manchester United, keeping a plethora of shots out throughout the course of the game. When he looked all set for a clean sheet, his goal was breached by a magnificent Wayne Rooney free-kick, but other than that, Grant was brilliant for the Potters.
Seamus Coleman (RB)
The Everton right-back is no doubt one of the finest in the Premier League and he displayed his class against Crystal Palace this weekend with another fine performance, capping it with the dramatic winner for the Toffees in the 87th minute.
Shkodran Mustafi (CB)
What an addition the German has been to the Arsenal backline. Another typically solid performance from Mustafi against Burnley and he went on to open the scoring for the Gunners when they seemed to be struggling to find a breakthrough.
Gary Cahill (CB)
The Chelsea centre-half had another memorable outing against Hull City on Sunday evening. Having emerged unfazed from the head-clash with Ryan Mason that saw the midfielder taken off with a severe injury to the head, Cahill was in inspired form for the Blues defending like a rock. He made sure the game was in the bag for his team with a late goal.
Chris Brunt (LB)
Another great display from the West Brom defender in their 2-0 win over strugglers Sunderland. Brunt played his part very well defensively, contributing towards the clean sheet and made a difference in attack, scoring the Baggies’ second with a thumping volley.
