With conceding goals being a major issue last season, Chelsea signed Dutch international goalkeeper Ed de Goey, who proved to be a relative success. Chelsea’s only other major signings were young Norwegian striker Tore Andre Flo and Uruguayan international midfielder Gustavo Poyet from Real Zaragoza. He added more goals from an otherwise very defensive midfield.

Chelsea were well on course for a top-five finish and success in the European Cup Winners’ Cup and the Coca-Cola Cup when manager Ruud Gullit was sacked on 12 February following a dispute with chairman Ken Bates. His job went to 33-year-old striker Gianluca Vialli, who took on the role of player-manager and achieved instant success. Within three months of his appointment, Vialli had guided the Blues to glory on the continent and at Wembley. This success gave Chelsea fans hope that the following season could spell the end of their title wait which began in 1955.

Ultimately they did not win the league until Jose Mourinho came to the club. Chelsea finished third in the 1998/1999 season. Only behind Arsenal and champions Manchester United.

Their biggest star was yet again Gianfranco Zola. If you want to re-live some Zola moments, you can watch them here.
