The Confederations Cup, which ended in triumph for David Luiz and Oscar, brought an end to the international action for another season.
Below is a full statistical breakdown of involvement for Chelsea players with their national sides in 2012/13.
There was a major milestone reached by Fernando Torres, Ashley Cole and Petr Cech during the year, when they won their 100th caps, with Frank Lampard poised to join them in the season ahead.
Of the 26 players who featured in senior international games, it was our two Confederations Cup Brazilians who made the most appearances last season with each playing 16 games. Frank Lampard was highest scorer. He found the net six times for England and now has a career total of 29.
There were senior debuts for Cesar Azpilicueta for Spain, Ryan Bertrand for England, Kenneth Omeruo for Nigeria, Tomas Kalas for Czech Republic and Thorgan Hazard for Belgium.
