Drogba Sights CL

[Steve 10,227]

Didier Drogba has his sights firmly on UEFA Champions League glory this season.

The Ivorian striker was sent-off in last season's final, which Chelsea lost to rivals Manchester United on penalties.

Chelsea face Juventus this week in the first leg of their last-16 clash, but Drogba is already thinking about another final appearance.

"My desire is greater than ever to win it. We lost two semi-finals and a final," he told The Sun.

"It has been a difficult competition for us. Moscow is very difficult to forget, I still think about it.

"The saddest part for me is the fans. They deserve to win the Champions League and this year we have to play the same way to get to the final but this time bring the trophy back to the Bridge.

"I would love to travel back in time and not be sent off in Moscow. If I was on the pitch I would have taken a penalty.

"I love taking penalties but sometimes you have to accept this is life."

Funny how he always gives these exclusives to the Sun.

Ignoring the Sun made up bollox -I was impressed with his workrate at Villa, and can see him scoring goals again soon.

[Steve 10,227]

Yep totally agree his work rate was great, he might not have made that much but he never gave up, he chased every ball down and he even went back to defend. If he does continue to do so im sure we will see him back on the score board soon.

I really liked the way he played in our last match...and when Guus came I said that he will bring back old Drogba who will score many goals in 1-0 wins(Guus is always playing like that)....=))..

Come on Drogs...one goal against Juve will be enaugh!!

Or two lol...

But yeh he seemed a differnt player to how he's been weeks before..like he wanted to be here,running around not so much 'meh I missed'Hopfully he can keep it up though and not perform every other game!

"I would love to travel back in time and not be sent off in Moscow. If I was on the pitch I would have taken a penalty.

Didnt he say not that long ago that he wished he had blattered Vidic instead of his girly slap ?

The mans confused.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

The way he doesn't know if he wants to stay or go would be good evidence to support that theory.

[misschief 24]

He'll be denying it again next week.

[Steve 10,227]

the way he has been playing as of late i think if he continues to keep focused and stops talking the usual crap which it looks like he has the last couple of weeks than i believe if he does too.
