Vote: Should Chelsea get rid of Didier Drogba?


Blues may ditch Champions League troublemaker

Didier Drogba

Competition for the lauded Ashley Cole Referee Bullying Award was fierce on Wednesday night, but Didier Drogba just about edged ahead Michael Ballack to secure victory.

Following the flip-flopped potty mouth rant that may see him out of European action until beyond Christmas, the hot-headed Ivorian is in grave danger of losing his space in the Chelsea training ground car park. According to the nation’s favourite red top (that’ll be The Sun), the Blues are ready to ditch the Ivorian, provided they get a decent offer in the summer.

The Spoiler appreciates Drogba’s passion, but can’t see past the stones he is throwing from his glass house: for a player whose game is based so much around cheating to lambast a referee for failing to stick to the rules is the height of hipocracy. That said, we’re not convinced his unprofessional actions are worthy of expulsion from Stamford Bridge.

What do you think? Sell him or give him a slap on the wrist? Let us know below…

“We hear police sirens all the time. Leverkusen, by contrast, was so much quieter.”

Hellbent on getting booed at his next home appearance, Andriy went on to criticise the Scouse accent:

“[Learning]English isn’t the main problem. The main thing is to learn to understand the local players
