Elliott 7 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 atm he looks sharp and I love him, but not in a gay way. I hold no hope for the Champs League this year. But we have plenty of time now to sort ourselves out into a team that might challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True_Blue 469 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Theres definitely a split with the fans. To me hes a Chelsea legend, and a responsible for a lot of the silverware. I dont care if he dyes his hair pink and throws tissy fits -surely winning the game is the important thing, rather than a load of media driven persecution ? I love Drogba too he did a lot for Chelsea but some talks piss me off,but not enough to dislike him or hate him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Cee 50 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 No....I was celebrating the wins the team gave us. He may have scored the goals to get us there, but he let himself down in the final and in the end it was all for nothing. I'm not blaming him at all for the final defeat, but his actions in that game were hardly worth celebrating. Whats spoilt about wanting a capable striker to get off his arse and play football? He'd have been off in a shot if someone had came in with a bid in the summer. Dont let him fool you. DD looks after one thing.....himself. I know aswell as everyone were a better team with DD in it (when he's on his game). But the world doesnt revolve around him and he needs to realise that. And the team included DD in it. I'm not being fooled. I don't think there's any player that doesn't look after himself these days. Not even JT and/or Lampard. Why do you think they're on mega-contract? So he has a few matches where he doesn't perform. Surely you can't expect a player to always perform and you don't simply forget his contributions. Even Ronaldinho has crap moments.

Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 A few matches ? He's had more than a few matches were he's got on like a knob. Thats were my problem with him lies. If he put in half the effort Sheva put in I wouldnt be arsed what he said/done off the pitch. Question: - Why do players like JT, Joe Cole, Essien and Riccy have so many fans claiming them to be their favourites? Answer: - Commitment on the pitch.......Do we get that from Drogba every game ?....no. Only when he feels like putting in a shift. Right now Drogba looks like he wants to put in a shift. I havent a problem with that. He's the best option available, even when he's being a knob. But its the commitment he lacks on a regular basis that gets under my skin. I might come across as a bit two faced on this, but my concern is for Chelsea, not Drogba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might come across as a bit two faced on this, but my concern is for Chelsea, not Drogba. More than a few matches? Does he have a full season where he got on like a knob? 50+ games? I don't think so. Just look at his record for us: 82 goals and 33 assists in 185 games (146 starts + 39 subs). Yeah, and well then why were there a lot of fans slagging Sheva and booing him because he couldn't score despite his commitment? I dunno about the last bit but I'd never wish our best option gone because my concern is for Chelsea. Well, not unless there's a replacement who's truly proven himself. And the media will always write craps about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
