Villa beat leaders Chelsea in perhaps the biggest win of the season for the reigning Champions. Putting six past Arsenal was good, putting six past the Blues was fun, but scoring two in seven first-half minutes and limiting Chelsea to an injury-time consolation feels massive for Richard Beales' boys after a run of bad results.
