Jype 6,398 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Marca are saying 4-6 months, take that with a pinch of salt for now but gutted if true.If he really is out for most of the season we'll definitely have to go after another striker now.

Special Juan 28,140 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Mmm just have wait and see what Jose says about it. If so, get into the market and get someone quick sharp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethos1 802 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 We'll have to get another striker if it's true, don't know who we should get though. It's not like there are loads of good strikers available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Hate Scouse 10,327 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 2 weeks out.Only way he will be out for 2 weeks is if he's stretched his ligaments. Judging by his reaction his done far more than that.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,062 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Reports are, Drogba could be out for 4-6 months.If that is the case, we HAVE to get another CF.http://www.marca.com/2014/08/11/en/football/international_football/1407758128.html TheIceMan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 If he's out for that long it could be a blessing in disguise... Costa, Torres and Drogba is only a marginally better strike force than Eto'o, Torres and Ba. Daniel1980 and Blue-in-me-Veins 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,952 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Wouldn't surprise me if we signed Remy on deadline day if this is a serious injury. BlueLion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel1980 1,425 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I feel like a terrible person for saying this, but if he's really out for 6 months, it's a good thing it happened now and not after the start of the season. We can get a decent striker now. TheIceMan, TorontoChelsea, BlueLion. and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lito 180 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 marca :Drogba-gony! Chelsea striker faces 4-6 months outDidier Drogba could be sidelined for anywhere from four to six months with an ankle injury picked up in the game against Hungarian side Ferencváros on Sunday. The Blues striker landed awkwardly on his right foot after challenging for a header and initial examinations suggest he has torn ligaments.Sunday's fixture was Drogba's first start for Chelsea since returning to the club on a one-year-deal after stints at Shanghai Shenhua and Galatasaray.

We Hate Scouse 10,327 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 How do Marca know this before any credible English paper? meh.They're guessing he's torn his ligaments, which I reckon he has. Time frames for recovery are pretty spot on for that as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namika 922 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 It sickens me to see people already talking about a replacement for Didier like he's some kind plastic toy which we can replace easily... Some people would be really happy if he was really injured 6 monts. iseah100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people would be really happy if he was really injured 6 monts.Yes because people talking about a replacement in case he is badly injured is wrong isn't it? And you would be hard pressed to find anyone who would wish badly on a club legend.Sometimes I worry about some people on here.

Atlas Lion 1,223 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 How do Marca know this before any credible English paper? meh.Marca absolutely hate Mourinho and provide anything that could potentially unbalance himself or the club he's managing. (How could they possibly access this information before any English journalism?) Wouldn't be surprised if they made this up aswell as the 70% of bollocks they publish about Mourinho.
