Don't hear too many people saying he is a Carthorse now...

Bet he won't be at the Bridge in 4 years time though.

Currently Awesome

no defender likes playing against him at the moment. non-stop trouble.

a new contract does not mean a player is staying with a club these days. Sometimes it's quite the opposite, the club wants compensation should the player leave, so the contract guarantees that. I can't imagine him in Italy or Spain though, the English game suits his style.

Agree.

I don't think he will ever top the Liverpool or Barca games at home this year.

I know you are all bored with me telling you how he ran Hyppia ragged last year in the 1-4 at Ann Field. It was only then I realised how good Drogba was.

As you say, 4 year contract is to get something back in 2 years time when he loses his hunger and desire....

Drogba is hit and miss for me. I would rather have Mackie in my team.......

Cart Horse always has been always will be....:D

No in honesty he's a good player and without doubt has lots of qualites - sadly he amongst many others in chelseas squad including there manager who lack the grace or humanity to accept losing or being tackled/challenged with any grace.

Good player - complete diving gobsh*te.

more hits than misses this season, he's on a roll. He's the only player that's kept my team in the fantasy league from the relegation zone, luckily I made him captain at the start of the season and has scored about 150 points for me so far...

I think he has finally settled and is rediscovering the form he had when he was at Marseille where, albeit in the French League, he was awesome. I remember watching him in the UEFA Cup when Marseille knocked The Toon out in the semi final (or was it quarters??). In the first leg at St James's Park Woody had him in his back pocket until he got injured and in the second leg he ran riot because Woody was out injured. I seem to recall him doing exactly the same against another British club in one of the earlier rounds. Celtic springs to mind for some reason. All in all, a force to be reckoned with when he was on his game and now he is justifying the money Chelsea shelled out for him.
Eh Lammie, Schevchenko top scorer?? I don't think so mate.
