Chelsea just beat West Brom by 1-0 this evening, confirming that they have won the Premier League, to the surprise of practically nobody.
Having dominated the league for the majority of the year, in the end it was Michy Batshuayi scored the winning goal for Chelsea, and with the goal the internet effectively called it a day.
Even with two games to spare, everyone began to celebrate the team having won the league once again.

Chelsea are champions, deservedly so. Inspiring manager, some brilliant players. Conte leaps into Courtois’ arms. Players now saluting fans.
