Why Drogba Should Stay on with Chelsea

The Ivorien top striker who plies his scintillating trade and skills for one of the top English Premiership clubsides – Chelsea is a player you can ill-afford to ignore most especially when he is going on full throttle. Doing so will be because you are envious of his sheer physical strength and beauty on and off the pitch.

When the sacked Brazilian who coached the club after the exit of the Special One – Jose Mourinho was toying with Didier Drogba’s hunger to get back into football action for his dear club, I was saying in my mind that Drogba would soon be forced to leave the club I dumped Arsenal to follow passionately. What with all the rumours and stories of interests from other big European clubs making round? I kept on praying that Drogba shouldn’t be treated the way my darling Kanu Nwankwo was treated by Arsene Wenger of Arsenal.

Scolari did everything within his powers to mess with my supplications to God and lost it all in the end when club owner - Roman Abramovich gave him a well-deserving boot.

The only reason why Drogba should continue to pitch his tent with Chelsea is because I want to see the expression on his face when he wins the Champions League in Blues colours. I have to add that there is no need for him to go elsewhere now when he is enjoying the love and support of the club owner.

I have seen in Drogba what is lacking in most present crop of Nigerian players who aside their defeat of the French national team some days back have not done anything to reclaim the love Nigerians have for their once-darling Super Eagles. He is tenacious and when he is got the ball with him. What with his natural show of emotions? When the referee who officiated the Barcelona – Chelsea semi-final second-leg Champions league match betrayed a lot of reasons to be suspicious about, he bared his emotions. I love him for that the more - the ban awaiting him notwithstanding.

Drogba should thank God for his new deal with Chelsea and prove to Abramovich that his dream of the elusive Champions league cup is achievable while he is still there. Now you know the real reason why Drogba should stay on with Chelsea.
