Little-used forward Michy Batshuayi came off the bench to score the 83rd-minute victor, handing the Blues their second league title in three years at the The Hawthorns. It's normal to have a lot of speculation around my players and the coach but we can't lost concentration.
For John Terry it was a special celebration, as the 36-year-old club captain will leave Chelsea this summer as a five-time Premier League champion.
Kante was an unused substitute at the Hawthorns as Chelsea manager Antonio Conte went with Cesc Fabregas and Nemanja Matic in midfield.
"No one remembers the punter given that it was placed so long ago, however, we expect they will be knocking on our door tomorrow", said William Hill spokesman Joe Crilly.
Two years after Mourinho led Chelsea to the title, Conte has stitched the London club back together after dressing-room unity unravelled under Mourinho during a horrendous title defence last season.
N'Golo Kante has put to bed any suggestions he might be a one-season wonder, making more tackles and interceptions than any other Premier League player since his arrival from Ligue 2, and picking up the PFA Player of the Year award.
This season, he has completed over 50% more take-ons per game (dribbles past an opposition player) and taken twice as many shots. Salomon Rondon forced Thibaut Courtois to make a big save after just 20 seconds of play as he headed a great effort towards the top corner. Gary Cahill's mishit shot span away from goal but Cesar Azpilicueta managed to reach it first and square the ball for Batshuayi to prod home.

"People write you off at the start of the season".
Conte became the fourth manager to win the Premier League in his first season in English soccer and he was thrown in the air by his celebrating players in joyous scenes.
