​Chelsea title impressive because PL is hardest in the world - Fabregas

Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas says that the Blues have claimed an impressive feat this season in the hardest football league in the world.

The Blues claimed a 1-0 win over West Brom on Friday to clinch their fifth Premier League title.

After the win at the Hawthorns, he said: "It feels great. Winning the Premier League ­trophy is something special, it gives you a special feeling.

"Having played in Spain, watching a lot of ­football as I do, from ­Germany, France and Italy, this is the best league in the world. Maybe not the best ­players in the world, but it's the most competitive and most difficult league to win.

"To be able to win it two times in three years at ­Chelsea is something to be very proud of.

"Other leagues don't have these extra games, extra ­trophies and extra difficult matches. You go to Burnley and it's difficult. In Spain, you go to other places, ­to ­relegation teams, and it's not as difficult."
