Massive 3 points Chels get innnn. Need to keep this momentum going now and finish the season strong. 

BT sport should be ashamed of themselves disgusting Scouse w**kfest from start to finish instead of praising what for the most part was a great performance from the boys in blue.

It has been a disturbing w**kfest on bt sport as far as liverpool are concerned from the moment they got the rights to show any football a few years back. 

 
Don't care about Liverpool. Them winning the title was a mere formality.

What makes me happy today is seeing the strong progress we're making under Frank. I make no qualms in saying that we'll be contending in years to come, and we've been improving since the United loss in February.

Pulisic has been a revelation since the restart. A fantastic prospect for the club, and someone who is very reminiscent of Hazard in his style of play.

The match could have gone either way, but great to have some luck on our side.

This has been one of the most enjoyable seasons in a number of years for a multitude of reasons. We have Frank coaching us, we've blooded youth players and given them proper game time, we've exceeded the expectations of most people and there's finally a sense of optimism that we're heading in the right direction as a football club.

Securing CL football is the top priority. If we can somehow win the FA Cup that would be the icing on the cake.

 
Great win.

Well done to everyone concerned.

It was like a Cup Tie at times, with both teams just going for it .

Some great saves by both keepers and some awful defending.

Thankfully one piece of the awful defending by City led to our first goal :biggrin:

I put the sound down early on as I was already fed up about the references to another team possibly winning the title.

Fair play to De Bruyne or their equalising goal. It was a great free kick.

It’s not really that simple when they’re the only channel that airs the chelsea game is it?

It has zero to do with Liverpool winning the league. I couldn’t give a f**k. Congratulations to them, they were by far the best in the league all season. 

It’s a broadcasters job to be independent and cover the game they’ve literally just shown. Not act like a clubs fan channel. 
 

It is possible to be delighted with a result and unhappy about something at the same time - they are not mutually exclusive emotions. What a strange opinion.

I can't get upset about this at all. Chelsea fans should just enjoy the win and the fact that that lot had to urge us on and celebrate wildly both of  our goals ! Their title will forever be linked to a famous Chelsea win !

Strange opinion ?  

Come on Chelsea !

 
I put a celebrating Pulisic up as my Whatsapp picture and then slept very well, only our win matters  ::ChELSeAFaN::

It's also not that simple when DURING THE GAME when CHELSEA scores or has a chance they cut to bloody liverpool fans reacting. What in the world was that sh*t. I think my channel is the BT feed (?) had michael owen and some other tossers and before the game they forgot to even show they had a Chelsea fan cam at all.

 
Great win, I felt we were the better team and deserved to win and more importantly keeps our momentum going into the last 7 games of the league. 

This could still be a good season for us if we can win the FA Cup and finish on the top 4. Exciting times with the new additions coming in for next season. I really think we're going to surprise a few people next season. 

Also nice to see Lampard do what Gerrard failed at and that's win a title for Liverpool ?

Come On Chelsea!!!!!!! 

BTW its 7am and I'm still wasted celebrating this victory.

Brilliant. :drinks:

 
A great result last night. I thought that as the game went on we got better and better. Future looks good and with the number of good quality midfielders we have can mix it up. Yes, there were a few mistakes but going to get those in any game. Could have scored more goals but I'll settle for a 2-1 win.

As mentioned earlier, I turned off the sound when watching the game (couldn't listen to the references to the bin dippers) and switched off the TV as soon as the final whistle was blown. Will watch interviews with Frank on the Chelsea website later.

 
On some level I don't really mind that the coverage was so focused on Liverpool. It's hard to argue that them winning the title for the first time in decades isn't a bigger story than Man City (who - European ban appeal excepted - don't really have anything to play for in the League), and our hunt for a Champions' League spot. A great game and a mostly impressive performance from us, a great scalp for Frank, but... whatever, it's fine.

What did irritate me and strike me as completely unnecessary was having the magnificently average Jason McAteer drunkenly regurgitating cliché after cliché on the channel I was watching, while the last ten minutes of our game passed silently in the background, totally unnoticed. A bit excessive, no? Even when it comes to the cringiest fans in world sports...

 
A game of drink breaks.

in each half after the drinks break we became a more forceful counter attacking team and looked like scoring. We also played longer passes and used our pace after the drinks break.

Despite their possession we had more shots than they did.

I like these drink breaks - can we keep them for next season? 

Frank’s substitutions worked well again. Who knows we might steal 3rd spot again, not bad for a team going through a rebuild.
 

 
good win for us.. congratz to Liverpool on the league never really had a problem with them it was well deserved this year... a lot of hate for them on this forum though making us look whiny  and sad.. just say congratz and move on to next season boys no need to insult them lol.

Nah

Big ol asterisk, like whenever they call all our achievements bought. Being new age internet football fan where we all love each other is naive and not much fun.

It wasn't like this when we drew with Tottenham in 2016 was it to give it to Leicester? I really felt that at the time they focused on the game as well as the historic achievement by Leicester.

It's a shame as that was probably one of the top 5 games of the season so far. It was easily the best game since the league restarted - by a country mile.

Do I detect the faint odour of open bins and mourned chickens?
