Not a great time to be an England supporter which Chelsea fans are, hence the standing ovation that Rooney received whilst being stretchered off but a great time to be a Chelsea fan as the team won the title again with a far better display than the one in the losing semi-final last week.

JM reverted back to his 4-3-3 formation with Drogba leading the line and what another powerful performance he gave. Since the unhealthy criticism aimed at 'The Drog' a few weeks ago about handballs, diving and the rest, the giant has picked himself up, dusted himself down and IS finally starting to show why Chelsea forked out all those millions two years ago.

To calm the nerves, Chelsea needed to get off to a good start and that's what they did. From a Frank Lampard corner and then a knockdown, Willie G stole in at the far post to put Chelsea 1-0 up within five minutes.

Rooney had a great chance to level the scores around the twenty minute mark, after good work in midfield the youngster broke clear but dragged his shot wide of Cech's right-hand post.

Joe Cole scored Chelsea's second after some neat footwork that left THREE defenders in his wake and then Coley provided the pass that saw Ricardo Carvalho smash in Chelsea's third. Chelsea only needed a point to secure the title and they fully deserved all three, despite reservations from SAF that his 'keeper didn't have a save to make, whereas Cech did, but SAF, Van Der Sar had to pick the ball out of the net three times.

BACK TO BACK CHAMPIONS 2005, 2006 and in our Centenary Year!

40 YEARS A BLUE!
