UK Back Pages: Lambert's Villa Run Ends, Willian Celebrated for Chelsea Winner

Chelsea continued their march toward the Premier League title thanks to a tight 1-0 victory over Everton that saw Willian hailed for his late goal. 

There was also news at the bottom end of the Premier League on a busy Wednesday, as struggling Aston Villa parted ways with under-fire manager Paul Lambert. 

Lambert and Willian shared equal headline ink. 

In the Daily Mirror, Steven Gerrard is devastated, as he'll miss Liverpool's FA Cup clash on the weekend, and a Silence of the Lambs reference is used to describe Lambert's sacking.
