Chelsea is the 2005/06 English Premier League Champions after thrashing second-placed Manchester United 3-0 at Stamford Bridge. The victory put Chelsea 12 points clear of Man Utd with two games to play.

The goal came as early as 5 mins when defender William Gallas nipped in to head past Edwin van der Sar following Frank Lampard's corner delivery. A magnificent individual goal from midfielder Joe Cole just past the hour mark made it 2-0 and Ricardo Carvalho finished off a sweeping move with a fierce shot after 73 minutes to put the title party in full swing.
Manchester United's misery was compounded ten minutes from time when Rooney was stretchered off with a foot injury and is now a doubt for England at this summer's World Cup.
Oh well.. I've been saying this for the past 3 years... Maybe next year...
