This season was not an active season for Chelsea. Spending a low £23.5 million on 3 players was not their biggest catch. None of the players that was bought made it to be first team players for Chelsea for more than 2 years. Zhirkov, the most expensive russian player at the time, spent 2 seasons at Chelsea and was incosistenst. Overall, the 2009-2010 season transfers was disappointing for both the fans and the players.
