He finished with a total of 14 from 51 games. During the campaign, he netted his 57th career goal in European competitions, leaving him second behind [[Gerd Müller]] on the all-time European goalscorers list, before [[Filippo Inzaghi]] made the record his own in the [[2007–08 UEFA Champions League|2007–08 Champions League]].<ref>{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/6201442.stm |title=Chelsea 2–0 Levski Sofia |website=BBC Sport |date=5 December 2006 |access-date=8 November 2019 |first=Ian |last=Hughes |archive-date=9 June 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070609220646/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/6201442.stm |url-status=live }}</ref> Shevchenko's 2006–07 season was cut short due to injury and a hernia operation.

Shevchenko was handed his first start of the [[2007–08 Premier League|2007–08 season]] against [[Blackburn Rovers F.C.|Blackburn Rovers]] at home to cover for the injured [[Didier Drogba]], but the game finished goalless. His first goal of the season came three days later, equalising for Chelsea in a match against [[Rosenborg BK|Rosenborg]], which turned out to be José Mourinho's last game as manager of Chelsea. Throughout the season, Shevchenko was in and out of the starting line-up because of injuries and the appointment of [[Avram Grant]] following the departure of Mourinho. During the Christmas period, however, Shevchenko enjoyed a good run of form. He scored the first goal in Chelsea's 2–0 win over [[Sunderland A.F.C.|Sunderland]], and he was named [[man of the match]] in Chelsea's 4–4 draw against [[Aston Villa F.C.|Aston Villa]] at [[Stamford Bridge (stadium)|Stamford Bridge]], scoring twice (including a stunning 25-yard shot into the top left hand corner) and assisting [[Alex (footballer, born June 1982)|Alex]] to make the score 3–2 in Chelsea's favour. Shevchenko scored his last goal in the 2007–08 season in a 1–1 draw with [[Bolton Wanderers F.C.|Bolton Wanderers]]. He finished the season with five league goals in 17 games. Shevchenko also played a part in a pre-season match which was against his former team, Milan.{{citation needed|date=June 2020}}
