West Brom 0-1 Chelsea: Batshuayi Comes Off The Bench To Sneak Home Late Winner

Michy Batshuayi has not scored many goals in the league this season: but 50 per cent of the ones he has scored, have won Chelsea the title.

If you’re going to go, go big – and Batshuayi went big in the 82nd minute here. Just at the point when it looked as if we would all have to reconvene at Stamford Bridge on Monday, he arrived in West Brom’s six yard box to ensure the title race is concluded with more than a week to spare. 

That is no small achievement in the season that brought Pep Guardiola to the Premier League, Jose Mourinho to Manchester United, and saw Tottenham older, more experienced and ready to improve on last season’s attempt to chase down Leicester.
