What will Santa bring our La Liga stars?

Well Christmas is upon us and so this is how La Liga sits at the close of 2011 trading, heading into the winter break.

Suprise packets Villarreal still lead the Liga BBVA by 3 points from Valencia. Followed closely by Barcelona and Real Madrid to round out the top four. Many doubt whether the 'Yellow Submarine' can continue their rich run of form and hang on to top spot for much longer, with the likes of Barcelona and Real Madrid growing in dominance with every performance.

Its been a difficult season thus far for our title favourites. First we had the calamity beginning to Liga BBVA and a forced restart after 12 rounds. Say no more there.

Then after the restart - our big guns have been very hot and cold. Plenty of goals, a couple of unexpected losses and a few too many draws - summarises the season so far for both Barca and Real.

With both through to the round of 16 in the UCL (Barca doing it comfortably compared to Real), and the clasico out of the way for now, they can both now get on with the business of taking a strangle hold of the domestic league.

So we shall see what the new year brings.
