Things may be going well for Chelsea, but they are not going well for Middlesbrough, who will be relegated should they lose at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea head coach Antonio Conte praised the "fantastic" Cesc Fabregas after his team took another step towards the Premier League title. We have to rest well and prepare for West Brom.
Cesc Fabregas celebrates a goal during Chelsea's victory against Middlesbrough on Monday.
Chelsea will take on West Brom on 13th May in a what could be called as the title decider.
They now need simply three factors from their remaining 3 matches, with the see to The Hawthorns followed by house video games versus Watford and Sunderland.
Today, Chelsea throttled Middlesbrough en route to an easy victory that puts them 90 minutes away from another title. "Our way is to try to dominate the game, create chances and always have the right balance". It seemed like they are playing to win this match. Every time Chelsea want an option or need an outlet, they go to Fabregas. At the start (he) didn't play a lot.
Diego Costa got his 20th league goal this season in the 23rd minute, controlling a ball lofted into the area by compatriot Cesc Fabregas and neatly nutmegging goalkeeper Brad Guzan. This made the scoreline 1-0.
'American Idol' coming back to TV on ABC, report says
After 13 months being off the air and 15 seasons on Fox, American Idol will havea new premiere date and a new network. Kelly said she'd start praying for him to return to the show since she was his "original fan".
Chelsea defender David Luiz claims that he has matured since his first spell at the club.
Chelsea resumed their assault on the visitors' goal in the second half, Pedro grazing the bar from Hazard's lay-off and Azpilicueta pinging a shot narrowly over.
That score line wouldn't last much longer, though.
In the second half also, Chelsea dominated the game and did not give any chance to Middlesbrough to make any threatening move.
After losing to goals from Diego Costa, Marcos Alonso and Nemanja Matic, Agnew explained: "Everybody's devastated".
And, speaking to Fabregas after the game, the Sky Sports presenter was quick to correct the former Barcelona star after he insisted that he was on 11 assists for the season.
Boro can have few complaints about their demotion, now confirmed, following a campaign in which only one of their five league wins has come against a team higher than 17th. The credit for this massive turnaround should go to Conte who have helped the side to the title.
