Premier League action - in pictures

Bet that didn't go down too well Photograph: Darren Walsh/Chelsea FC via Getty Images It isn't a fruitful tactic. Torres - who, let's not forget, was a record-breaking marksman in his first 50 games for Liverpool - has barely had a peek at goal Photograph: Anthony Devlin/PA Speaking of which, John Terry looks rather horrified after copping an eyeful Photograph: John Sibley/Action Images Ashley Cole and James Milner get themselves in a tangle as they leap for a high ball Photograph: Glyn Kirk/AFP/Getty Images Nigel de Jong collides with Michael Essien but refuses to give way to his opponent Photograph: Darren Walsh/Chelsea FC via Getty Images It takes until the 78th minute for David Luiz to break Manchester City's resilient defence. He beats Joe hart with a header from inside the box following Didier Drogba's left-wing free-kick Photograph: Anthony Devlin/PA Given Manchester United's late victory over Bolton on Saturday, Chelsea will be delighted that they've edged themselves within sight of three points today Photograph: John Sibley/Action Images In injury-time, Ramires skips through City's back-line and dispatches the second goal to ensure a 2-0 win Photograph: Darren Walsh/Chelsea FC via Getty Images Up at the Stadium of Light, Liverpool's Martin Skrtel take an acrobatic approach - much to the amazement of Sunderland's Steed Malbranque Photograph: Anna Gowthorpe/PA Even Kenny Dalglish is showing off his skills Photograph: Lee Smith/Action Images Jay Spearing races towards the Sunderland box and is brought down by John Mensah. The critical word there being towards, not into. Needless to say Sunderland's players are apoplectic when the referee points to the spot for a what should have been a free-kick two yards outside the box Photograph: John Walton/EMPICS Sport Dirk Kuyt, sporting a shiner below his right eye, slots the ball into the corner. 1-0 to Liverpool Photograph: Andrew Powell/Liverpool FC via Getty Images Take a look at that - everyone's doing the old rock-a-bye-baby routine like Bebeto in USA 94 Photograph: Anna Gowthorpe/PA Mensah earns himself a red card for another clumsy challenge. This time he's guilty of dragging down Luis Suárez Photograph: John Walton/EMPICS Sport In the 77th minute, the Uruguayan cuts in front the right flank and tries his luck from an improbable angle ... Photograph: Lee Smith/Action Images And scores! That's a cracking goal.
