Comments:

Final league position 2016-17: 1st On the day they were presented with the Premier League trophy, Chelsea won their 30th game of 2016-17 to break their own record for most wins in a Premier League season (won 29 games in 2004-05 and 2005-06). On the last of his 717 career appearances for the Blues, John Terry's substitution began in the 26th minute in recognition of his shirt number. Chelsea's total of 85 goals scored was their second highest total in a Premier League season (103 goals in 2009-10). Chelsea manager Antonio Conte said: "It's been an emotional day. I think it is great to finish the season well. We won the season with 30 wins. This season will be fantastic if we are able to win the FA Cup. I try to find the best solution for us to bring all my players in the right form."

Final league position 2016-17: 20th Sunderland finished bottom of the Premier League for the third time; a competition joint-record with Nottingham Forest. The Black Cats had now lost 11 of their last 14 games in the Premier League (won one). This was David Moyes' 500th game as a manager in the Premier League (won 196 games, lost 168). Sunderland manager David Moyes said: "I'm a man who has just finished losing a game today and I'm gutted I lost the game and the way we've lost it. That's how I feel. I'm gutted we've been relegated, really disappointed the way the season's gone. But you know? What do you do? Football has winners and it has people who lose. Look at Chelsea. They're winning today. I hope in the future we're involved in something similar."
