Liverpool have moved above Swansea into 7th after a 5-0 win over a weak  Swansea side.

Swansea's last game before the Capital One Cup final next Sunday ended in a 5-0 Whitewash. Swansea manager Michael Laudrup says he is partly to blame for the defeat after making seven changes to the side that beat QPR 4-1 last weekend. 

The game was dominated by Liverpool from the first minute, they had penalty claims turned down before one was won by Luis Suarez after he was fouled in the box, Steven Gerrard stood up to take it and scored it to make it 1-0 to Liverpool.  Liverpool had more chances before half time but Vorm kept the score 1-0 at half time.

After 16 seconds of the second half Liverpool were 2-0 up when Philippe Coutinho worked his way though the Swansea defence and then took on the shot and it found a way past Michel Vorm in the Swansea goal

FT REPORT: CRYSTAL PALACE 0-1 TOTTENHAM

HARRY KANE broke Crystal Palace hearts as he headed home an 88th minute winner at Selhurst Park.  It was Kane's 35th goal of the season and his 150th career club goal, the goal equalled his record of goals for last season as he once again looks on course for another stunning season in front of goal. His header broke the hearts of Palace who were denied a precious point in the battle against relegation. One man who will be thanking Kane for scoring will be Spurs right back Serge Aurier who had missed an open goal a few minutes prior to Kane's goal. The result saw Spurs go above Chelsea into the top four on goal difference before the Blues's trip to Manchester United. The defeat for Palace see's them remain 17th in the table outside the drop zone on goal difference. They also play Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool in three of their next four fixtures. It was a tight and tense affair in the first half and Spurs were unlucky to be denied two penalties....
