John Terry is playing the best football of his career

Jose Mourinho called it post-match – telling his captain in the dressing room that he had just played the greatest game of his career.

Certainly, the 33 year old, was utterly imperious – controlling the all important defence, and denying Arsenal at every turn.

When he lifts the Premier League trophy at Stamford Bridge a week today – none will have done more to make that happen than Chelsea's Captain, Leader, Legend.

Chelsea will win this league through versatility

“Boring, boring Chelsea,” sang the Arsenal fans on full time.

Well, it takes two to tango.

And their Chelsea cohorts didn't seem much to care as they bounced up and down singing: “We're gonna win the league.”

Chelsea have been boring. And, as many seem to forget, they have also been outstanding in their football.

You don't get six players in the PFA Premier League team of the year by being constantly negative.

But they have known when to be one thing, and when to be another. Which is a lesson their opponents today seem never to have picked up so long as they have had their current manager.

Technology shouldn't just be for the goal line

We've been talking about it all season – but errors by officials change matches.

Most lost count of how just many penalties went begging in the first half – missed by Michael Oliver. Certainly, both sides suffered as a result.

But are there really more refereeing mistakes these days than there ever were?

Or is it the case, as I suspect, that there are now merely far more cameras in the grounds – allowing the home viewer, and the easy-life pundit, to pour further scorn on officials doing what is now an impossible job.

Surely the time has long since arrived when at least one of those cameras was put to the use of the fourth official?

Specialist in failure? Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger

Arsene Wenger may never beat Jose Mourinho

He's not managed it yet, and with maybe one more season at The Emirates, maybe two, you'd not bet against it never happening.

After Wenger's sneering comments about Chelsea's 1-0 win over Manchester United, and with the Blues needing only a draw, it was clear how the Blues boss would approach this match.

There was no shoving or flapping of ties this match – both men kept their jackets zipped to the top – but the psychological victory here was all Mourinho's.

Wenger will carry on complaining – but it surely irks him that he cannot get past his nemesis.

West London will be a sea of blue on late May Bank Holiday

If Chelsea fans have one bank holiday next weekend on which to celebrate their imminent title win, then the calendar has been kind in providing another on which to parade the trophy.

With a letter to local residents, Hammersmith & Fulham Council has confirmed that Monday 25th May – late May Bank Holiday – will be the day on which the open-top bus gets its run out.

It is five years since Eel Brook Common had a Premier League trophy to celebrate – it will be some party this time around.
