Didier Drogba coolly slotting home from the penalty spot to win Chelsea the Champions League on Bayern Munich’s turf in 2012 is widely viewed as the forward’s crowning glory, a moment that engraved his name, alongside other Blues legends, in the club's history.
It was the most fitting way to leave at the time, after years of ups and downs in West London, and certainly the best way of making up for his dismissal in the 2008 final defeat by Manchester United.
However, as unusual as it may sound to fans of the five-time Premier League champions, events from 2004 could have played out differently if Jose Mourinho got his preferred choice to lead the line at Chelsea, Benni McCarthy.
