Man City are just one result off the top of the league they won last year. And a lot of it is thanks to a little magic from their fairytale import from New York City. The Frank Lampard story continues.
Manchester United
Saviour's Day
Louis van Gaal is rescuing another mammoth project from the depths of despair. He steered the ship miraculously around with Bayern and he's starting to do the same at Old Trafford. He'll probably ask that he's referred to as The Saviour if he pulls it off again this time.
Newcastle United
Please, Daddy (Don't Get Drunk This Christmas)
Come on, Alan. You're on the straight and narrow now. We're beginning to trust you again. Don't fall off the wagon. Don't ruin Christmas.
Queens Park Rangers
Driving Home for Christmas

Sick of the road, sick of the travelling. The only place Hazza wants to be is at Loftus Road. No Premier League win away from home since March 2013. Enjoy your home comforts for Christmas. A trip to the Emirates on Boxing Day is only a day away.
Southampton
Blue Christmas
Remember when Southampton were second? Remember when they were top four material? It's gone, lads. And it's going to be a blue, blue Christmas just thinking about it.
Stoke City
Merry Christmas (I Don't Want To Fight Tonight)
But, you know, we'll be ready to go again tomorrow for the Boxing Day match...
Sunderland
I Have Forgiven Jesus
Things looked a bit ropey up on Wearside there for a while. That'll happen when you invite in all sorts of chaos into your life, this one in the form of Paolo Di Canio. Sunderland pulled off the great escape though from the plunging lows they were in this time last year and the messiah-like Gus Poyet is making them believe again. (That they can stay up more regularly...)
Swansea City
Silent Night
All quiet on the Premier League's western front. Yet again, Swansea are in no trouble of going down and they're certainly in no danger of pushing on.
Tottenham Hotspur
All I Want For Christmas Is You
And you. And you. And you. That seems to be the mantra anyway as, once again, Spurs find themselves short of where they want to be. Don't worry, they lag behind only Chelsea and Man City when it comes to January spending so they're probably already drawing up another wishlist for Santa.
West Bromwich Albion
Funky, Funky Xmas

Absolute pants.
West Ham United
I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
When you've woken up in the middle of the night, you're not quite in full control of all of your senses, you're tired and confused and not sure exactly what is going on or if what you've seen is actually dream or not. What the hell is going on?Explore more on these topics:
