Chelsea v Fulham - Premier League — Drogba won the Golden Boot, as Chelsea lifted the league title in 2009-10 season

The 2009-10 season was the first season in charge of Carlo Ancelotti at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea at that time was full of talented players like - Didier Drogba, Frank Lampard, Petr Cech, Carvalho, Michael Ballack, so it is no wonder that they went on to become the eventual winner that season.

It all started with a great start to their league campaign, with 6 back to back wins, which came to end in the 3-1 loss to Wigan, in the seventh Matchweek.

6 wins are impressive, right? But Chelsea had managed to maintain 100% record for an even longer period of time once in their history, we'll be taking a look at that record too shortly.
