SEASON 1: DECEMBER UPDATE
ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE
Points Table
View attachment 186810
The table seems to be taking a proper shape halfway through the season, as Arsenal and Man City are surefire favorites for the title. Chelsea and Tottenham are 7 and 10 points off the top respectively. Manchester United are level on points and GD with Tottenham, but are behind them since they scored one fewer goal (39, against Tottenham's 40). At the bottom of the table we have the magnificent Aston Villa, who recently fired Remi Garde and have placed Kevin MacDonald as caretaker. Norwich and Leicester continue their impressive starts to the season, although Swansea have fallen off the pace a little bit. Elsewhere, an upturn in fortunes sees Stoke rise up to 12th in the league, and with the January window opening soon, they will be looking to fix Joe Allen's registration issues and make a push for the top half (or even beyond).

Surprise of the week: Stoke continue their recent surge with a terrific win at Anfield. Elsewhere, Theo Walcott scores against his parent club, but Arsenal still beat Aston Villa. They will still feature on here however, as they only managed to win by 1 goal.
