Jog on with your fake humble speech you pos

"Unfortunately I can look the worse for wear but it is nothing to do with drink. I did have verbals with Brendan Rodgers, but it was nothing."

"I was face to face with (Fulham) chief executive Alistair Mackintosh and the owner Mr Khan straight before the game. And if I had been unable to carry out my duties, they had the right to sack me on the spot. I most certainly hadn’t been drinking on the train before the match."

"I didn’t want to make a fuss about my illness, I didn’t tell Rene. Darren Fletcher said how hard it was to tell his team-mates. But I desperately want to carry on in football and there’s no chance of that happening if everyone gets the wrong impression that I have a drink problem."

"I was very stupid about the drink-driving and I have had trouble with depression on occasions. But not since I was back in football. I was so excited about the Fulham challenge, but it’s all about results."

Didier Drogba is considering rejoining Chelsea when his contract with Galatasaray expires at the end this season. The Ivorian striker, who is preparing for Wednesday's emotional Champions League reunion with the club he won that competition for, has been invited to start his coaching career under Jose Mourinho in an approach sanctioned by Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich.

The opportunity to play at Stamford Bridge for the first time since he led Chelsea to Champions League glory in 2012 — he scored a late equaliser and a shootout decider in the final against Bayern Munich — is regarded by Drogba as “a gift from God”. So powerful is the Ivorian’s affinity with Chelsea that he rejected a multimillion-pound offer to move from Galatasaray to Major League Soccer in the winter transfer window. He did not want to miss the two round-of-16 ties.

Chelsea - despite high levels of spending on transfers and wages since Roman Abramovich bought the club in 2003 - is expected to comply with FFP requirements and is understood not to be among the 76 sides that UEFA have requested additional information from.
