Vidic Slams Drogba


Well as I said in an earlier article Manchester United are tryiing to play mind games with our players. Today it happened again.

Nemanja Vidic has come out publicly accusing Didier Drogba of diving saying:

“Sometimes he [Drogba] goes in very strong and sometimes he pretends he is weak,” said the Serbian. “He plays with your mind and tries to make the defender think about the next tackle.

“He can pretend he fell down to win a penalty, but referees know that. The Champions League final is a big game and I’m sure the ref will know his job.”

But he added: “He’s a great player and he’s a top scorer. It’s a hard job to stop him.”


Well it is no secret that Didier does go down a little easy, but I think that this is just a mind game that they are trying to play. Let's just hope that Drogba rips through the Man United defense on Wednesday.

"Mourinho used to tell me when to get cards" Drogba


In Didier Drogba's upcoming autobiography Didier Drogba admitted that Jose Mourinho would tell him when he should get a yellow card to get a suspension at the right time.

In his book it says this:

"Mourinho calculated everything - he looked at the match programme and analyzed the cards each of his lads had received," Drogba says in the News of the World.

"He sometimes whispered to me: 'It would be good for you to get a yellow card today. You would miss such-and-such a match. I will give you four free days.'

"No problem. I used to do as he said.

"That allowed me to pay myself a little trip to Dubai. It was a modern way of treating work and the individual."


Well I think we all know that almost everyone does this in Football. It's a way of not having a yellow card hanging over a player's head for the Champions League, or in League Play. But it was very stupid of Drogba to say this, it's one of those things that happens, and it's best not to discuss it openly with the press. But it doesn't really matter. On more game and he's off to Milan.

Anelka Plans on Staying.


After not living up to expectations after coming in Mid January from Bolton, their has been a few rumblings saying that Nicolas Anelka may be leaving Chelsea after only six months.

In an interview with the News of the World Anelka Rubbished the Rumors saying:

“No, I am staying,” said Anelka in the News of the World.

“Chelsea are one of the biggest clubs in the world so there’s no point moving again because we contest the Champions League and Premier League title.

“I have moved too many times. Even if I am on the bench, I am glad to be here.

“I am still new to the club. I try to do my best when the manager asks.”


In my opinion he hasn't played enough at Chelsea for anyone to say he has played poorly. He has been on the bench for most of the games since he has arrived. I think we should give him at least one more year. Who knows, with Drogba leaving he may play an important run in the league for Chelsea next year.
