Bigger deal: Leicester atop the table or Chelsea one point above relegation?

Today's match was a lot of fun to watch. Would've been amazing to have been there. Supporters were great.

Chelsea.
They won the league last year.
Leicester still hasn't played Liverpool or City. They drew Tottenham and United at home and got their shite shoved in against Arsenal. I'm not saying they aren't good but they still haven't played the meat of the schedule. We'll see how they look mid-February after games AT Pool and City.

I agree with this. I mean United and Chelsea suck at scoring currently and they haven't played two of the better offensive teams in in EPL yet in City and Pool.
Regardless, both are incredible lol. It would be awesome to see Leicester in Europe next season.

Neither. Leicester won't win PL and Chelsea won't be relegated.

Doesn't mean we can't hope for Chelsea to at least get their end accomplished

Yep. I'm pulling hard for this.
And while I don't think it's really all the possible, it would be AMAZING to see Chelsea dropped. if given the choice I think I would rather see Chelse dropped than Leicester win it.

Chelsea getting relegated would be something.

Chelsea being relegated is not good for the Prem.

Yeah but it'd be hilarious.

Chelsea being relegated would be good for the whole of humanity.

Oh no doubt. Everton, Southampton, and Tottenham have had early leads in the last few years. They haven't won though. shite only Tottenham has made UCL. Small clubs will make noise most years but in the end they won't amount to much.
Plus the EPL just isn't that good this year.
Pool was in turmoil.
United can't score.
City is plagued to all frick and back with injuries.
Arsenal is basically the Clemson of the PL.
Chelsea holy shite.
A "sleeper team" with a favorable schedule leading the table isn't THAT surprising this time of year.
My main point for Chelsea being a bigger deal is just how far they have fallen. They won the league last year and repeating is tough for any club but they aren't even competing. They're dead in the damn water and have looked like arse all season. If they were even 10 points off the league leader I wouldn't say they were the bigger deal but they're 15 points off even qualifying for UCL. Teams struggling is one thing but my God they're bad.

City's injuries are not like United or Arsenal
City like everyone else just isn't that good and is widely inconsistent. Especially in the back four.

he total days missed this season also tells a story. At a meagre 312 days, Arsenal fall way below the Premier League average (369.6) and when directly compared to Man City (546), Liverpool (656) and Spurs (520). Even Chelsea have suffered more cumulatively days (314) with players out.
Yeah but Pool is winning the Arsenal excuse trophy this year. We're already ahead in days missed and with more than a few season ending injuries.
Either way, Arsenal isn't close to the most injured team this year
Back to the point of the thread - Leicester being top is definitely the bigger deal to me. Its December, not October. And they are a small club who many thought would be relegated this year after changing their manager.
As for Chelsea - we all know Mou can't stay in any one place because everyone is tired of his @#$@# after a few years. Of course, half of Chelsea is just tired walking to the supermarket which is why they drive and park in handicap spaces.
Old + Ahole Manager = bad start to the season.

That article is kind of shite bc using total days out. So one player could rack up a huge chunk of the total ala Sturridge. That and its two weeks old.
City has been hit by the bug with Kun, Silva and Kompany. But the rest really are not impact players.
Other than Hendo and Sturridge what other impact players have spent time out.
City have the depth to make up for it right now bc its not a mass of injuries, other than Striker.
When we talk about injury crisis its more having everyone out at once like United do right now or like Arsenal do year after year. When it really test your depth and your academy players.

Well, Sakho is out. Firmino was out for about 5 weeks with a back injury. Coutinho just spent 3 weeks on the bench with a hamstring injury
