Jase 43,479 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 We have won the Premier League 5 times, achieving each one in different style/manner. So how would you rank them from the best to the least best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucio 5,418 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 1. 2009/10 2. 2016/17 3. 2004/05 4. 2006/07 5.2014/15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beigl 1,387 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I agree with Lucio. Our 09/10 title was our most thrilling and enjoyable. And god how I loved our squad back then. Drogba, Malouda, Anelka, Lampard, Cole, Terry, Cech, Riccy, Alex, Essien, Kalou. We also scored 103 goals which is simply astonishing. But I have to say that todays title win is a close runner up. Our spine is formidable and the supporting players like Alonso or Cahill are very likeable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dahnald 256 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 09/10, 16/17, 04/05, 05/06, 14/15 14/15 was fun because of Mou's return the season before but everybody else was just shit in that season so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 2010 was the most enjoyable and all in all best. Then come back to back titles because those years english football was on very high level and we managed to win it twice. Then comes this season because we made it despite poor last year and against all odds since everyone expected manchesters to win it. Then 2015. PL is not as strong as it was 5 or 10 years ago. But I celebrated them all equaly. Title is title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 04/05 - First one, won't ever be topped, we absolutely smashed the league in every single aspect. 16/17 - Everything was not in our favour, the mess Antonio inherited all the way down to the manager's at the rivals, we not only won it Antonio has also created, in my opinion, the best side in our history apart from the back to back sides. 05/06 - First few months of that season i felt we were invincible, i remember we came up vs in form forwards a lot (Henry, Defoe, Bent) and none got a sniff atall. We were everybit as good as the season before, the only difference points wise was the fact we lost the 2 away games after lifting the league wereas 2005 we got 4 points in them. 14/15 - Great football in the first half of the season and got it done in the second (although in many ways that was the start of the crisis). Was very fitting that we won the title with Jose back at the helm exactly 10 years after the very first one. 09/10 - The most entertaining title win for sure but boy we made it hard for ourselves, we were so complacent vs the lesser sides, had we not been id probably have this title win in 3rd. Our 6 out of 6 vs the red rivals however was unreal and those four 7 plus goal games were an absolute joy, including the start of the following season that was 35 goals without reply, insane.

Fulham Broadway 17,346 Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Following the blues home and away since 1967 -(wasn't around for the 1955 title) and with very sporadic success, it has to be the 2004-5 one. Never thought I'd see one in my lifetime, but theyre all fucking great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been through a lot aint we mate lol And yes for me the best one was 04/05 and fond memory of Jose throwing his medal in the crowd....at least I think it was then, old now memory fades lol Someone tell me what year I see my first Chelsea game, all I can tell you is we had a player called Crowther, me mate a Millwall supporter I might add call him "The Wirey Haired Flareup" Best Regards: hes1ofus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If 3-4-3 then Alonso is the only possible inclusion, but a full-back I can't see past Gallas of 04/05. Fabregas a good inclusion and an integral part of us being champions despite not being a starter. Perhaps having both Kante and Makelele in there is overkill, but my idea was that Kante plays the box-to-box destroyer role, Maka holds deep and Lampsy gets unleashed to batter through with DD and Robben, Hazard supporting - insane. Full license to get forward for Azpi and Gallas. Playing both also eliminates the need for 5 at the back, can afford to throw more players forward with surely no-one getting past Riccy, JT, Maka and Kante on the break.

Went with 4-3-3. Didn't like the idea of putting Moses at RWB, for some reason. Would have gone with the Maka-Lampard-Essien midfield combo but too bad we didn't have Essien back in 04/05 yet. Come to think of it, Gudjohnsen with Drogba and Hazard upfront sounds decent too. Combination around the box would be deadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leif 6,006 Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 2nd highest amount of goals we've scored in a season 2nd highest amount of wins, following 2004-2005, & 2005-2006 (29 wins each; 28 this season) Half the goals conceded vs. last season 2nd highest passing accuracy we've maintained over a whole season. Along with only 2004, 0 red cards in the league Literally half the offsides of our other seasons (60 vs 128 on avg). So despite having lesser players in many areas vs. most of our other seasons, it's definitely the case in my eyes that this team is our 2nd best following 2004/05/06. But. We had a lot more character, spirit, romance & passion in the CL winning team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
