BlueLion. 21,491 Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 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) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve 10,227 Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Can Liverpool be considered a grand slam team anymore?Of course they can. They had one terrible season, it does not mean they are not going to be up there again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milan 17,957 Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 (edited) 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. Edited June 2, 2010 by milan.cech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted June 2, 2010 Author Share Posted June 2, 2010 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.
