Five of the best team performances in the Premier League

Martin Samuel, our Chief Football Correspondent, was more than impressed with Chelsea's 2-0 victory over Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge yesterday. "The scoreline suggests respectability, but the actuality was different," he wrote. "This was as comprehensive as any victory by such a conventional margin could be."

Here we select five more outstanding performances from the Premier League's history:

Arsenal 1-2 Hull City, 2008
It is extremely rare for any promoted team to get a draw at one of the big four let alone a win, so the Tigers victory at the Emirates just over a week ago is without doubt one of the top performances in the Premier League's history.

Arsenal 4-2 Liverpool, 2004
Arsene Wenger's invincibles were behind twice in the match but mounted a scintillating second half display which saw Thierry Henry complete his hat-trick and Gerard Houllier described the Gunners as "stunning".

Manchester United 6 Arsenal 1, 2001
Dwight Yorke's early hat-trick led a rampant United to a 5-1 half-time lead against their title rivals. Watch the goals below:

Chelsea 5 Manchester United 0, 1999
The treble winners had been unbeaten since December 1998 but their run was ended in emphatic style ten months later by Gianluca Vialli's team. Watch the goals:

Newcastle United 5 Manchester United 0, 1996
Kevin Keegan produced an attractive attacking side in his first incarnation as Newcastle manager and reached its zenith with a storming performance against United at St James' Park. David Ginola's exocet shot in the first half and Philippe Albert's delicious chip over Peter Schmeichel being the pick of the goals.

Admittedly, we have mainly plumped for matches between the big guns, but we want you to share your memories of the best team performances you have witnessed in the top flight in the last 16 years. Add your comments below.

Hull were good at The Emirates but Arsenal should've, could've won the game. One of the five best Premier performances? Get real.

What about Derby County's 3-2 win at Old Trafford in 1997 that featured THAT stunning solo effort from Paolo Wanchope. Legend

If Hull's win at Arsenal is there on the basis that a promoted team never does well at the big four how about Middlesbrough's 3-2 win at Old Trafford in December 1998? Brian Deane and Hamilton Ricard terrorised United defence that day

Sunderland 4 - 1 Chelsea in 1999-2000. 4 nil at half time with 2 apiece for Quinny and Phillips. Sunderland were rampant
