When Chelsea hosted Crystal Palace on Sunday, the equation is simple. Win and Chelsea will be crown champions.
Win they did, 1-nil (what other scoreline will one expect). Arsenal should hand over their famous chant "1-nil to the Arsenal".
While clubs in similar situation will put up a good show, to win the game in style and reward the fans, this is not in the DNA of Jose Mourinho.
Remain tight, grab a goal and close out the game.
Thou I hated to say as much, it works and they are the "best" team during the course of the season. "Best" in churning out results, low on entertainment value.
Not that it matters to Mourinho, as long as there are trophies at the end of the season.
Anyway, kudos to Chelsea.
Now that this is settled, the top four should be done and dusted, with position to be decided, the focus will be on the relegation battle.
Barring a miracle, Burnley will be relegated. Two among Aston Villa, Newcastle, Hull City, Leicester, Sunderland and QPR will be joining The Clarets.
Who will face the drop? My picks, Newcastle and QPR.
