Didier Drogba Sings the Blues

Now that the international break is over and the preseason NBA fashion show has come to an end, it is time for footballers the world over to pack their bags and head back to the clubs that finance their lifestyles. Some will be eager to return to their clubs and to resume league battle. Didier Drogba is not one of them.

The Chelsea striker has had some time to think about the state of things at Stamford Bridge and upon further reflection he’d rather be spending his time somewhere more pleasant like Guantanamo Bay.

“I want to leave Chelsea,” he is quoted as saying in an issue of France Football magazine that will be published on Friday morning. “Something is broken with Chelsea.

“The damage has been big in the dressing room because we know now what happened and who caused Mourinho’s departure.

“Nothing can stop me from leaving now.”

Just to be clear about things, he continues on:

“Since the day I arrived, I wanted to leave Chelsea and then again every summer,” he said. “I know that Ronaldinho and Kaka are linked to come next season but even that won’t change my mind.”

Poor guy has been unhappy making gobs of money playing for a successful club in a fabulous city since day one. As we cue the violins and sharpen our pencils to write a message of condolence to Drogbacite and wait for tomorrow when he claims that he was misquoted and that he loves Chelsea more than life itself, let’s do a little speculating as to where his future may lie and most importantly where he can rest his head at night feeling happy and satisfied. In other words, where do you think Drogba will end up next?
