The 2000–01 season was Chelsea F.C.'s 87th competitive season, ninth consecutive season in the FA Premier League and 95th year as a club.
Season summary [ ]
A slow start to the season cost manager Gianluca Vialli his job, despite having won five trophies since his appointment in February 1998.[1] The last of these trophies came at the start of the season when they defeated Manchester United 2–0 in the Charity Shield to win the last-ever club game at the pre-redevelopment Wembley.[2] Vialli's successor was Claudio Ranieri ,[3] who guided the club to sixth place in the final table and attained automatic qualification for the UEFA Cup .
The biggest success of the season was the effectiveness of club record signing Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink , who found the net 23 times in 35 Premiership games in a partnership with Chelsea's 34-year-old Italian superstar, Gianfranco Zola , who found the net on 9 occasions.
Team kit [ ]
The team kit was produced by Umbro and the shirt sponsor was Autoglass. Chelsea's home kit was all blue with a white trimmed collar. The club's third kit for this season was orange with blue shorts and accents.

Premier League Rules for classification: 1) points; 2) goal difference; 3) number of goals scored.
Notes:
^ Since Liverpool won the League Cup and qualified for the Champions League, their UEFA Cup place went to fifth-placed Ipswich Town. Since both FA Cup finalists , Liverpool and Arsenal, qualified for the Champions League, the berth in the UEFA Cup went to sixth-placed Chelsea. Both Ipswich and Chelsea were the highest-ranked team not already qualified for a European competition.
