16 Games (out of 38) in and after losing to Leicester City yesterday, Chelsea is 20 points behind the leader and sits in 16th place just 1 point out of the regulation zone. Heck of a Christmas present for most EPL fans. They have to make wholesale changes at this point, including axing Mourinho. I doubt it; but, were Chelsea to be regulated, the EPL overall would take a huge hit marketing and brand wise and Chelsea with its salary and other expenses I imagine would have issues playing the 2016/7 season in the Championship League.
