Last night game (May 9, 2010) was a crucial match for Chelsea especially to beat Manchester United in gaining the champion title of this season. Chelsea met WIgan Athletic in their home stadium of Stamford Bridge. And The Blues beat Wigan 8-0! What a fantastic achievement. This results has made them the champion for the three times. The latest was 2005-2006 under the leadership of manager Jose Mourinho.
The recent manager - Carlo Ancelotti - guided the Blues to their first Championship success since 2006 in his debut season in England as Chelsea took their tally to 103 goals - the highest in the Premier League since Manchester United in 2000 and the first to achieve the century since Tottenham Hotspur in 1962/3.
United's 4-0 victory over Stoke City at Old Trafford was irrelevant as the Blues finished the season one point clear of their rivals.
Ancelotti's side smashed home seven or more goals for the fourth time this season as Wigan, who had defender Gary Caldwell sent-off on the half-hour, simply capitulated.
A hat-trick from Golden Boot winner Didier Drogba, who finished the season with 29 Barclays Premier League goals, two from Nicolas Anelka, a Frank Lampard penalty and others from Salomon Kalou and Ashley Cole, left Chelsea champions and on the brink of a League and FA Cup Double.
Only Portsmouth now stand in their way of a history-making season for Ancelotti and his team.
The Blues will become only the seventh team in the history of the game to win both competitions if they can overcome Avram Grant's side at Wembley next week.
Congratulations The Blues!
