Here are a selection of your best comments

Keith: "Learning how to win ugly is essential to becoming a successful club. Our young players are learning how to do that. I hope they will become experts."

Dauda: "This game was just like a cup final for Chelsea. It is great that we have qualified for the Champions League, we need to go for a world-class striker to rotate with Nicolas Jackson. Up the Blues."

Andrew: "Well deserved. We played good enough football all season. If only we had a striker (any striker) we could compete for the title.

Daniel: "Job done, which is huge praise for this young Chelsea team. They are maturing."

Amy: "Champions League qualification was probably the first objective for the season. Next is a great chance to win a European trophy and increase team confidence. Making use of an early transfer window should help us win the Club World Cup too."

Jason: "Good to finish fourth, but we dropped too many points after Christmas. How did we lose and draw to end up dropping five points against Ipswich? That was disappointing."

Tony: "Our best performance of the season and, most importantly, we're going into the Champions League next campaign after a couple of years out of it."

Not everyone was positive about the win

Jamie Philips added: "Qualified by the absolute skin of our teeth here. I still think this is something of a 'trust-the-process' situation. There has been some awful performances this season but we have seen glimmers of hope. There still needs to be several changes to the team if we want to challenge for the Premier League and Champions League next season."
