First it was Jose Mourinho, then it was the Chelsea squad. Now, it’s the turn of the supporters to make light of the "boring, boring Chelsea" chant that Arsenal fans targeted the Premier League champions-in-waiting last weekend.

With Chelsea taking another giant stride towards a first title success in five years courtesy of the 3-1 victory at Leicester, the Blues need only two points from their remaining four matches to secure the silverware.

Only Arsenal are capable of catching them, but the current 13-point gap looks more than enough to ensure Chelsea will add the Premier League trophy to their Capital One Cup success earlier this season.

As the likes of John Terry, Branislav Ivanovic and Gary Cahill celebrated the 0-0 draw at Arsenal on Sunday, chants of “boring, boring Chelsea” came from the home supporters at the Emirates, who were far from impressed with the tactics displayed by the Blues.

Jose Mourinho immediately defended his team, and turned the tide on to the Gunners by claiming “10 years without a title, now that is boring”.

A few days later, members of the Chelsea squad –including captain Terry and club great Didier Drogba – were displayed in a video playing keepy-uppy with headers while in an office meeting.

But the Chelsea fans would not be denied their say, as they chanted “boring, boring Chelsea” from the stands at the King Power Stadium on Wednesday as the teams made their way out onto the pitch.

Watch the video below...

The chant returned in the second half, and was timed to perfection by the Blues' faithful as Ramires rifled home their third goal just as the song was echoing around Leicester's stadium. You can expect much of the same on Sunday when the Blues have the chance to secure the title with a win over Crystal Palace.
