That victory was part of a 14-match winning streak for City to end the season as they finished one point ahead of Liverpool to win the title.

That being said, it was still totally unacceptable for the Blues to lose in that manner. The contest was over by half-time, with Man City scoring four of their goals in the opening 45 minutes.

Sergio Aguero starred for City in that victory, scoring a hat-trick against Chelsea. The Blues finished the season in third place with a 26-point gap separating them and the champions.

2. Arsenal vs. Chelsea (5-0, April 2024)

Chelsea found themselves on the losing end of another beatdown, suffering a humiliating 5-0 loss to Arsenal in their Premier League clash on Tuesday night.

The Blues struggled without star player, Cole Palmer, who missed the game due to illness. They got off to a nightmarish start, conceding the opening goal to Leandro Trossard in the fourth minute.

It was Chelsea's heaviest loss to their London rivals.

3. Manchester United vs. Chelsea (4-0, August 2019)

Frank Lampard's first game as Chelsea manager didn't go according to plan, as the Blues suffered an embarrassing 4-0 loss to Manchester United in their 2019-20 season opener.

Marcus Rashford starred for the Red Devils in the rout. He opened the scoring with a penalty in the 18th minute before adding another in the 67th minute.

Anthony Martial and Daniel James scored the other goals for United, who began their league campaign with a win at Old Trafford.

It was Chelsea's biggest loss at Old Trafford since 1965, per the BBC.

5. Chelsea vs. Liverpool (1-3, October 2015)

Chelsea fans will forever remember the 3-1 loss to Liverpool on October 31, 2015, as it signalled that the Jose Mourinho era at Stamford Bridge was soon coming to an end.

The Blues were under pressure to win after scoring just 11 points in their first 10 league matches. Their bad run continued, though, against the Reds, who won their first game under manager Jurgen Klopp.

Coutinho helped Liverpool erase an early 1-0 deficit, scoring a brace on the road. Christian Benteke sealed the win for the Reds with a goal in the 83rd minute.
