Chelsea back on top

Last updated : 28 January 2010 By Tony Scholes
Manchester United had gone in front on Saturday when Wayne Rooney hit four in the demolition of Hull, but whilst Rooney was at it again last night putting the world's biggest club out of the Carling Cup, they slipped down one place with Chelsea's win.

Down at the bottom and we've dropped into the relegation positions for the first time this season. The long run of games 5 points out of 33 has finally taken us down there.

Below are the week's stats, the Premier League's leading goalscorers, each club's disciplinary record and the next set of fixtures.
