Experience did it all for Chelsea to win their game in hand against Leicester. The Blues -today wearing yellow kits- managed to come back after falling behind 1-0 before the break, and now they need one more victory to claim their fifth Premier League title.
Chelsea's goals came courtesy of Didier Drogba, John Terry and Ramires, giving Mourinho and his men reason to celebrate even when they are criticized for their effective playing style. The team's Twitter feed trolled Leicester fans for chanting "boring, boring Chelsea" when the Brazilian midfielder scored the third goal of the game.
Appropriate the travelling support were singing 'Boring, boring Chelsea' as that thunderbolt hit the back of the net... #CFCLive

But it wasn't all criticism for Chelsea. Other team's fans also acknowledged what Jose Mourinho's team is accomplishing, even if they don't like him too much.
Chelsea under Mourinho are ruthless, clinical winners. I envy their mindset & success.

Chelsea so much mentally tougher & more resilient than all the other PL sides. Best team in the country by miles.

Chelsea have played 50 games this season and only lost 3. Every other PL team have lost at least 9 games in all competitions.

Terry (CB) and Drogba (3rd option at ST) are 71 years old combined. They have 14 goals and 4 assists this season across all comps. Ageless.

Graceless, snarling and, most of all, unhappy. Oh, and top of the league. Jose Mourinho, everyone.
