Winning once is great. Winning twice in a row? That’s like nailing your New Year’s resolution twice. The very next season, Chelsea did it again. They stormed to the title with games to spare, finishing a massive eight points clear of Manchester United. It felt less like a competition and more like a victory lap at the park.
This one was special because it proved they weren’t a one-hit wonder. They had this swagger—like a kid who knows they have the coolest lunchbox in the cafeteria. Mourinho was on top of the world, and Lampard, Terry, and Didier Drogba were basically untouchable. If you were a Chelsea fan back then, you walked a little taller all summer.
