Description
As Didier Drogba approached the penalty spot in Munich, he knew Chelsea's destiny rested on his shoulders.

And this time, Drogba delivered, stroking his penalty home... somehow, Chelsea Football Club had reached the promised land. They were European champions. The Blueprint tells the story of how it all happened.  From the arrival of Glenn Hoddle as manager in 1993, right through to glory in Munich in 2012, we speak with the key players and decision makers who inspired an impossible story.
