Recent News: Chelsea Crowned Premier League Champions Last Night

Hello football enthusiasts (:

I'm sure most (or all) of you would have heard about Chelsea winning the coveted Premier League Title last night after a failure to win it after three years, since they last won it in 2007. Manchester United's 4-0 thrashing of stoke was a mere consolation compared to Chelsea's 8-0 victory which effectively handed them the title.

Personally i'm a Manchester United supporter, and I feel that it is rather disappointing that they gave up the chance to be the first Premier League side to win four titles in a row. And the fact that when they lost, they were just one point behind Chelsea, makes their failure to win worse. Failing to capitalise on winning key games such as the 0-0 draw at blackburn caused their failure to win the title. Of course, their over-reliance on Wayne Rooney as a main striker also caused them to fail to win the title.

However, credit to chelsea for having a strong, experienced and skilled squad of players. From Didier Drogba, striker-in-chief, to John Terry, their captain and most consistent defender, Chelsea's squad is full of footballers oozing class and skill. Of course, their experience also played a vital role in helping Chelsea to win the title.

To conclude, I feel that sometimes, football clubs will be disappointed with what they have achieved, as is the case in the real world, but such disappointments are more or less inevitable. Hence, even from the fact that Chelsea have snatched the title out from Manchester United's nose, I have learnt that we should make the best of every opportunity and capitalise on any chances we happen to get. Because some things only come by once.
