Chelsea's 2016-17 Premier League crown is reportedly being questioned again, with BBC News examining whether Tottenham could ever have a legitimate case for being retrospectively awarded that title instead.
The report doesn't detail fresh evidence but frames the debate around Mauricio Pochettino, who managed Spurs to a runners-up finish behind Antonio Conte's Chelsea that season. According to BBC News, the discussion revisits old questions about whether football's history books could — or should — ever be rewritten in hindsight.
As it stands, no formal action or ruling has been reported, and Chelsea's title from that campaign remains officially recognised. The piece appears to be more of a thought exercise than a report of any active investigation or appeal.
Given the limited detail provided in the source, it's unclear what new grounds, if any, are being cited to support such a case. Until further specifics emerge, this remains firmly in the realm of debate rather than a genuine threat to Chelsea's league record.
