Red suits him, doesn't it?
The Ivory Coast striker’s four-match ban for ranting at Ovrebo as Chelsea crashed out in the semi-finals to Barcelona 12 months ago also carried a two-match suspended penalty, which could be triggered by Uefa after his sending-off for violent conduct. A straight red card in the Champions League carries an automatic two-game suspension so Drogba could begin next season’s competition with a four-match ban, just as he did during this campaign.Alternate title, "Card Cheat Reggae". And yes, I've been listening to a lot of The Clash recently.
But to clear up any confusion, Drogba's red card in the Champions League has NO BEARING on the Premier League. He will be available to play @Blackburn and then Portsmouth. So keep him if you have him, at whatever price If you don't have him... well Chelsea have some good enablers - Belletti 1.65; Mikel 3.71; Zhirkov 4.71; and most tempting Turbull at 5.98 - if you're trying to scrounge around for the 26.11 Drogba will cost you this week.
This double week is crazy... would you play fabregas or Johnson (city)?
