'Tis the season to be jolly - and show the fans you care.
Each Premier League club has their own way of expressing the good will of the season. We decided to run the rule over how they've communicated their Christmas cheer this year...
Per Mertesacker singing a German version of Silent Night that's actually quite sinister. Sensational. 9/10.

Manchester City
The richest club in the land doing repeats at Christmas? Very BBC Two. Poor. 4/10.

Tottenham Hotspur
Similar to Leicester's effort but very scripted and generic. Below par. 6/10.

Manchester United
In keeping with the rest of their season, this is dull and a bit depressing. 3/10.

Crystal Palace
FFS Palace. Get out. Just...get out. 1/10.

Watford
This is more like it - cracker bantz for the lads! Wahay! 8/10.

West Ham
Worst alternative Queen's Speech ever. -1/10.

Liverpool
Players wishing fans a merry Crimbo in their native tongues - great idea! James Milner even does it in Yorkshire! 9/10.

Everton
Roberto's Christmas message. Like your turkey, it's nice enough but a bit dry. 7/10.

Stoke City
Yes it's a retweet of sorts, but a Stoke flag in space? Very cool. 9/10.

Southampton
A bit like Everton, but a bit half-hearted this from Ron. And we suspect that roaring fire is fake. 5/10.

West Brom
The culmination of an advent calendar, but not exactly cheery. 4/10.

AFC Bournemouth
Together, you could have put more effort into this. 2/10.

Chelsea
Superb. A lot of time and attention has gone into this and it shows. 10/10.

Norwich
Heartwarming stuff from the Canaries. 8/10.
https://twitter.com/NorwichCityFC/status/680327234058452992
Newcastle
The old 'players wish you a Merry Christmas' routine, but lacking in graphics or any real pizzazz. 4/10.
https://twitter.com/NUFC/status/680333807937957888
Swansea
Bringing players and fans together. Isn't that what it's all about? The answer is yes. 7/10.

Sunderland
Snowy but not particularly punny. 3/10.

Aston Villa
We waited for a full minute assuming this was a vine. Gutted. 2/10.

This would be incredible! Right now, Nathan Collins’ focus is Ireland and Brentford, with the centre back captaining both sides. And this will be his focus for at least the next decade, as the Leixlip man is still just 24. However, in an interview with the BBC, he spoke about his early roots in the […]
