Drogba Promises Big Improvement
Wed 25 Aug, 4:12 PM
Didier Drogba has vowed to score the goals for Chelsea to justify his huge
transfer fee, insisting,
"You have seen nothing like the best of me yet".
The £24 million Ivory Coast striker opened his goal-account in the Barclays
Premiership with a classic header in Tuesday's 2-0 win at Crystal Palace but
admitted he is still nowhere the form that persuaded Chelsea to pay top dollar
for him in the summer to replace Hernan Crespo.
Last season he fired nine goals in Marseille's run to the final of the UEFA Cup
and more than tripled his transfer market value.
He said: "The fans and the team can expect a lot more from me.
"I am not physically at my best yet and still need a bit of time to improve my
sharpness. I am keeping my fingers crossed that when I'm settled and ready I
will take a few more of the opportunities that I get.
"You need to score as a striker but I can help the team in other ways and I
feel I am fitting in well in the Premiership.
I love playing here and the team
has played well in the first three games."
Drogba, who limped off 15 minutes from time, is having ice-treatment to some
heavy bruising on his ankle and is hopeful he will be fit to keep his 100 per
cent starting record in manager Jose Mourinho's line-up at home to Southampton.
But Mourinho, who did a Claudio Ranieri and made five changes to a winning team
at Palace, offers no guarantees, and declined to explain himself after a
comfortable win.
Coach Steve Clarke said: "It's always important for a striker to get goals.
He's (Drogba) a big money signing and obviously that puts pressure on him but
the transfer fee was not his decision.
"He showed that if we get quality crosses into the box then he is going to be a
threat."
Clarke added: "He got just a nasty kick on the ankle, it is very painful just
now and he has got ice on it. But we are very hopeful it is just bruising and
it will settle down in a couple of days.
"The quicker Didier got his first League goal for the club the better and it is
nice that he has got one, Eidur (Gudjohnsen) has one and hopefully we can get
one for (Mateja) Kezman on Saturday."
Chelsea are clearly now intent on producing the attacking form to go with the
defensive strengths which Mourinho has introduced. The single-goal successes
against Manchester United and Birmingham brought accusations of negativity from
the critics - and a few stinging replies by the manager.
"He is staying quiet for a while," revealed Clarke, "
He is thinking maybe he's
said enough for now."
Mourinho has been asking them why English sides, even Arsenal, no longer win
trophies in Europe.
But he showed a glimpse of Chelsea's more creative abilities at Selhurst Park.
And Tiago, the Portuguese midfielder he signed from Benfica, shone brighter
than anybody on his full debut in which he wrapped up the points with a well
taken goal.
"In his first start for the club he was part of a very good midfield with Frank
Lampard and Claude Makelele," said Clarke.
"They controlled it and Tiago showed that not only is he a very good defensive
midfielder who can win tackles and stick his head on the ball, he can create
going forward as well. His goal was a nice finish."
With the gifted Joe Cole cutting in from the left to supplement the front two,
and Kezman also making his first start, Mourinho faces the dilemma of whether
to provide dedicated wing service for strikers who clearly relish aerial combat.
Dutch winger Arjen Robben is still out with hairline fracture of an ankle but
the manager may now feel the time is right for £17million Damien Duff to be
unleashed.
Clarke said: "
I think as the season goes on both those players will be involved
which will give us extra width.
"
Damien is very close. He played a full 90 minutes for Ireland last week which
is good for us. He is in full training and he has a chance of being involved on
Saturday."
