Sergio Aguero struck a hat-trick for Man City as they beat Chelsea 3-0 at Stamford Bridge to go third in the Premier League table. The visitors controlled the first half on Saturday evening and went ahead through Aguero on 33 minutes, although the forwards effort was aided by a deflection off Gary Cahill.The Argentina international finished a City counter-attack for his second, and sealed his hat-trick from the penalty spot after Fernandinho was tripped by Thibaut Courtois, with the Chelsea goalkeeper sent off as a result. The victory moves City above Arsenal, who host Crystal Palace on Super Sunday, while Chelsea remain 10th with just one win from their last eight Premier League home games.Both managers made four changes for the match, and in a frantic opening, both had opportunities to break the deadlock.Strong defending from Cahill prevented Aguero from tapping home after just three minutes, before Nicolas Otamendi cleared Pedros goal-bound shot off the line with Joe Hart beaten. Yaya Toure says the whole Manchester City team performed well at Chelsea and it was probably their best win of the season Diego Costa had the ball in the net for Chelsea shortly after but was correctly adjudged offside, and after weathering the early pressure, City stamped their authority on the game.Courtois twice denied the visitors one-on-one, as Kevin De Bruyne and Samir Nasri saw efforts saved by the Chelsea goalkeeper.But the hosts did not heed the warnings and fell behind to a rapid City counter. Aguero scored his third from the penalty spot De Bruyne and Aguero broke from a Chelsea corner, and when the Belgian teed up his team-mate, Aguero cut inside and fired home off Cahill from the edge of the box.With Chelsea on the back foot, only a last-ditch tackle from Cahill prevented Aguero from doubling Citys lead two minutes before the break.The Blues started the second half brightly as they searched for a route back into the match, but were caught on the break again as City extended their advantage nine minutes after half-time.The impressive De Bruyne, returning to his former club, was involved before Nasri found Aguero, who made no mistake for his 20th league goal of the season. Aguero followed up his penalty miss against PSG with a successful spot-kick against Chelsea He didnt have to wait long for his 21st, as City made the game safe from the spot with 10 minutes to play. Fernandinho broke into the Chelsea area and was upended by Courtois, leaving referee Mike Dean no choice but to issue the red card and award a penalty.Aguero, who missed against Paris Saint-Germain in midweek, sent substitute goalkeeper Asmir Begovic the wrong way to seal his hat-trick.Chelsea had felt hard done by six minutes before Citys third, when referee Dean waved away a penalty appeal after Kenedy appeared to be tripped by De Bruyne in the area. Ruben Loftus-Cheek was bright for Chelsea in the early stages Following the defeat to Swansea, Saturdays loss marks the first time Guus Hiddink has lost two league games in a row as a club manager since February 2004, when he was in charge of PSV Eindhoven.Meanwhile, City head to St James Park to face Newcastle on Tuesday full of confidence after following up their Champions League win with another strong performance, and now sit four points clear of fifth-placed Manchester United in the race for a top-four place.Player ratingsChelsea: Courtois (6), Azpilicueta (5), Cahill (5), Ivanovic (5), Baba Rahman (6), Mikel (5), Fabregas (5), Willian (5), Loftus-Cheek (6), Pedro (6), Costa (6)Subs used: Traore (6), Kenedy (6), Begovic (6)Man City: Hart (6), Zabaleta (6), Otamendi (7), Mangala (7), Kolarov (6), Toure (6), Fernandinho (7), Navas (8), Nasri (7), De Bruyne (8), Aguero (9)Subs used: Iheanacho (6), Delph (6), Sagna (6)Man of the match: Sergio Aguero Andre Drummond Jersey . - The Washington Redskins have signed free agent offensive lineman Mike McGlynn.

Tokarski, who had played in three games earlier in the regular season, allowed three goals on 30 shots in a 3-1 loss to the Rangers in his playoff debut on Monday. Therrien also sent a message to Thomas Vanek to pick up his game, rotating the struggling winger on the fourth line at Wednesdays practice with Michael Bournival, Daniel Briere and Brandon Prust at practice. Vanek, who has four goals in the second round against the Boston Bruins, has been held off the scoresheet in Montreals first two games of the Eastern Conference Final. The Canadiens had 41 shots on Henrik Lundqvist in Game 2, with none from Vanek. He had only one shot in their 7-2 loss in Game 1. Therrien told reporters not to read into it as it all could change again ahead of Game 3. "One thing, the (Tomas) Plekanec line needs to give us more," he said. "Im ready to stick sometimes with combinations and with three guys working together as long as I see results. "Sometimes the results are not there but the chances are there. But if I see there are no chances, not much happening, now Im at a point where I have to make some deecisions.dddddddddddd. Hopefully by making some changes, somethings going to happen." Max Pacioretty came to Vaneks defence, noting how difficult it can be to score in the postseason. "In playoffs its even harder," he said. "If you walked into one of (the Rangers) meetings, theyll talk about a guy like Thomas Vanek and they talk about him around the net and having to play physical on him. Being expected to deliver every night, its impossible and youve seen it in these playoffs with numerous stories of different players. "All you can ask now is, if theyre not contributing offensively, is to help out in other areas. Hes a great guy in the room as well. Hes helped me, especially through my slump. Theres other areas you can contribute. Its not just on the scoreboard." With Vanek sliding down to the fourth line, winger Dale Weise moved up to the third line and Brian Gionta was bumped up to the second with Tomas Plekanec and Alex Galchenyuk.
