In the latest “FC Yahoo Podcast” (available on iTunes and SoundCloud), Alex Baker, Joey Gulino, Leander Schaerlaeckens and I pinpoint the key factors and defining moments of Chelsea’s fifth championship season in the Premier League era.

We also gave our thoughts on the Champions League finalists, Juventus and Real Madrid, who will meet June 3 in Cardiff. And of course, we gave Leander ample time to discuss the European run of his beloved Ajax, which will meet Manchester United in the Europa League final on May 24 in Stockholm.
