After securing a promising third-place finish the previous season, Chelsea entered the Champions League third qualifying round with high hopes of clinching the title. They made notable signings, including France captain Didier Deschamps and striker Chris Sutton. However, Sutton's performance was disappointing, managing only one league goal throughout the season. Despite this, Gianfranco Zola's standout performances in Europe, notably against AC Milan and FC Barcelona, caught attention. Chelsea topped their Champions League group but were eliminated in the second leg against Barcelona. In the Premier League, they finished fifth due to inconsistent performances. Nonetheless, they clinched their fourth cup in four seasons, winning against Aston Villa in the FA Cup final. Notably, Chelsea made history on 26 December 1999 by fielding a starting eleven without an English player, marking a significant moment in Football League history.
