The Blues, who suffered a miserable season as they finished 12th in the table with their worst ever points tally despite spending almost £1billion on transfers, decided to pour some salt on Leeds‘ wounds.
The West Londoners remembered the relegated side trolling them in August when they lost 3-0 at Elland Road.
Chelsea took to social media last summer claiming they started to “assert” themselves before goals by Brenden Aaronson, Rodrigo and Jack Harrison led to a humiliating defeat.
Leeds later tweeted: “Life comes at you fast!”
Chelsea didn’t forget that as they tried to have the last laugh after the final round of fixtures that saw Sam Allardyce’s side dropping to the Championship.
The Blues responded: “It certainly does.”
But that joke didn’t go the way they hoped it would as opposing fans weren’t impressed with a big club like Chelsea taking a swipe at a relegated side.
Several fans took to social media claiming Chelsea “have found their level” after a disastrous campaign.

Another posted: “No way Chelsea are beefing with a relegated team, they’ve found their level.”
A third said: “Chelsea have found and accepted their level.”
This fan commented: “Yeah Chelsea found their level.”
And that one wrote: “Chelsea beefing with relegation teams. Todd Boehly era ladies and gentlemen.”
