Antonio Conte’s Chelsea reclaimed their title as English champions and in superb fashion. The Blues, on 21 May, broke the record for most wins in a Premier League season by defeating Sunderland and earning the 30^th win of their campaign on the last matchday.

Goals from Eden Hazard, Willian, Pedro Rodriguez and Michy Batshuayi (x2) ensured the Premier League title for Chelsea. Captain John Terry also made history as he made his 717^th and final appearance for the Blues, and was subbed off in the 26^th minute as a mark of respect for the defender.

The win broke the record set up by Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea, who won 29 matches during both the 2004/05 and 2005/06 seasons. Chelsea ended the season with 93 points, a record only beaten by Mourinho’s Blues in the 2004/05 campaign.

However, Conte’s side couldn’t wrap up the season on good terms as they lost the FA Cup in a 2-1 final loss to Arsenal at Wembley.
