The Grand Slam

[BlueLion. 21,491]

On the way to becoming Premier League champions for the third time in six seasons, Chelsea completed a first-ever Grand Slam over their Big Four rivals.

In the history of the competition, no team has completed doubles over Arsenal, Manchester United or Arsenal in the same season. Chelsea achieved it in the most memorable of fashions - beating Liverpool 2-0 at Anfield to effectively ensure their first title since 2006.

Chelsea 2-0 Liverpool (Anelka, Malouda)

Chelsea 1-0 Manchester United (Terry)

Arsenal 0-3 Chelsea (Vermaelen OG, Drogba x2)

Chelsea 2-0 Arsenal (Drogba x2)

Manchester United 1-2 Chelsea (J.Cole, Drogba)

Liverpool 0-2 Chelsea (Drogba, Lampard)

Of course they can. They had one terrible season, it does not mean they are not going to be up there again.

It's a fantastic result but still - we won the league by one point. Sure, who cares know, we are the Champions. However we shouldn't be losing points to teams lower in the table.

Let's be fair, we were going through shit patches when we played them. I'm confident if we'd have played them - home or away - in April/May we'd have hit them for six. In truth we owe both defeats to poor goalkeeping displays on the day.
