Thursday 12 October, 2006 Reports in England suggest that Milan are interested in Chelsea striker Didier Drogba, as their search for Andriy Shevchenko’s replacement continues. The Rossoneri may exploit a FIFA loophole which could allow them to sign the Ivory Coast captain for as little as £4m, as players can buy their way out of their contracts three years after signing them. Drogba would therefore only have to match the wages earned in the remaining time, which are believed to be approximately £4m over two seasons. The Mirror newspaper claims that Milan would have no problem in bringing it into effect, despite few clubs exploiting it thus far. However the Ivorian striker, who has netted eight goals for Chelsea – outclassing Shevchenko in the process – does not seem keen on moving to Italy. "Great strikers have joined the club but I am still here to serve the team," said the 28-year-old, referring to Sheva’s £30m summer move. Drogba was already linked with Milan in August, when it seemed that the swoop for Ricardo Oliveira was destined to fail, but in the end remained at the Stamford Bridge side. The Ivory Coast captain moved to Chelsea from Marseille for £24m in the summer of 2004 and many thought he would be relegated to the sidelines after the arrival of the Ukrainian star.

QUOTE (Portugal @ Oct 12 2006, 03:00 PM) He could be a good add, but tbh I don't like him.  Considering what I last saw of him (his WC performances) I would want him to come. But I don't watch Chelski so I really can't tell how's he playing now ... all I know is that he's scoring more!! This post has been edited by dst: Oct 12 2006, 01:12 PM |

he's been even better then at the world cup, honestly. a true power forward, u should see some of the goals he's scored. one of them he practically has a defender on his back and blasts a shot right past the goalkeeper, a thing of beauty. and yesterday he was all over the barca defence and held puyol off to blast the winner in the top corner of the net. i think he's the hottest striker at the moment... and would be perfect for milan.

Drogba's goal in the CL was great, his goal record for Chelsea in EPL is stupendous, his overall charisma and charactor on the pitch is one to be envied (by most strikers), and his power .. he is extremelly untouchable ... But, we already have Super Pippo and Gilardino .. Where is Drogba gonna fit in ? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Do you honestly think Milan will give up on Gilardino this season and replace him with *gulp* Drogba ? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) Oliviera ? What will happen to him ? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) I mean as a striker I like him, but as a person I just cant stand him .. His remarks to the press: I mean his attitude and over confidence .. It's not Milan !! You don't see Milan players ever being over confident !! Even though they are true champions. He might come, but he would be 'perfect for milan' .. Good, but not perfect IMO. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

ya he does get a lot of trash and people call him a diver and cheat, i think it's partially true but i think most of it is because he plays for chelski and lots of people hate chelski, namely the media. but what like about him is he creates his own space. No he isnt a creative forward which we have been lacking since she'ca departure. but i have this gut feeling drogba can play along pippo or even gila. last year we had 4 strikers, gila always got lots of play time. you have to remember sheva leaving was never part of the plan and gila was not really supposed to take over for him especially cuz they arent the same type of player.but i dont think this will happen and i just find the whole situation ironic. chelsea want strikers so they sell gudhjonsen and cole and get sheva.i dont know why they would now sell drogba cuz they would be left with sheva only.
