Didier Drogba

Plenty of life left in our Didier yet.

I'll be sure to remind certain members of their vitriolic prattle when he next scores.

I think the annoyance comes from the fact everyone knew Remy should of started against Schalke.

You can't say anything bad about him because of what he has done for this club, but for me, the other night, Jose was wrong starting him and that was the view from me before KO.

He will always be a decent option but that's it, our solidity up top comes from Costa and Remy.

What make you sure Remy would've done a better job than Didier? A logical reason to play a more experienced player who's been here longer, played longer and knows the team players and manager's thoughts better to play the match.

And is it Didier's fault Cesc can deliver that clear cut chance or is it his fault Hazard can't keep that volley down or couldn't tap that ball in or maybe it's his fault Cesc lost the ball in the middle made them counter and Cahill couldn't keep his legs closed which the ball went through and to the net?!

Because Remy is better than current Drogba. Not even a question.

He was and he wasn't. I'm surprised Remy didn't start as well, but he's only recently joined up with the club and maybe hasn't trained as much as José would have liked. José saw this as a game we should have won easily (which we should have) and chose to give Didier the time to improve on his fitness and sharpness. As the game went on he visibly improved physically IMO, and his match sharpness will arrive with time. I can perfectly understand why José chose to start him, especially given his CL experience.

Not based on the points i made in my post!

No, Drogba isn't as good as Remy. Simple as that.

First of all based on what he is not as good? second of all if you read the posts the argue was about who was a better choice in Schalke game not that who's better that whom and i believe Drogba were a better choice as i pointed in my previous posts!

You said he'd be a better choice because of his vast experience, correct? As does Remy, he may not have as much as Drogba but you can't ignore his years at Marseille when he played in the CL.

What did Drogba offer us yesterday? I know for sure we would have won if Remy played

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Really don't want to criticize him but him returning here now suddenly forced Jose to play him as he can't just sit on the bench to collect the wages. I really hope there is a way to resolve this issue because as good as he once was Remy is a better player now.

Jose just put him on to hold the ball up and to draw fouls. If we were losing i have no doubts he would have brought on Remy.

[zolayes 14,489]

I thought he was poor again last night . Perhaps we should bring Bamford back.

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

I think we need a new 3rd choice striker dont think Drogba will cut the mustard to be honest, its almost 2 months into the season and his looked like shit

[Myself 793]

I think Bamford will be our 3rd striker next season

I've BEEN SAYING THIS[emoji58]

Seems I came back too quickly from my ankle injury & have aggravated it further in training so won't be travelling with team today...

"It is a return to stay," Mourinho said before referring to the clubs - China's Shanghai Shenhua and Turkey's Galatasaray - that Drogba played for after leaving Chelsea in 2012.

"No longer will there be more (Drogba) in China or Drogba playing at Galatasaray," Mourinho said suggesting that Chelsea will be the 36-year-old Ivorian's last club.

"Drogba will be a coach or assistant youth football team or the main ambassador of Chelsea or assistant director of sports. There will be a role for him what he wants. He is a player who Mr Abramovich wants at the club."
