Episode notes
When Glenn Hoddle arrived at Chelsea in 1993, he thought he was becoming the manager of a Premier League club.
He soon found out the Blues were in name only; Hoddle had stepped into a club that was years behind its rivals and needed to dramtically improve standards. From player recruitment to the playing style and basics such as nutrition and how the team trained.
It was a new dawn at Chelsea and Hoddle had it all to do.
This is the story of how Hoddle did it.
In this episode you will hear from: Glenn Hoddle, Ken Bates, Steve Clarke, David Lee, Eddie Newton, Michael Duberry, Colin Hutchinson, Luke Harding, Joel Harding, Clive Batty (Journalist), Rick Glanvill (Chelsea historian)
