Chelsea manager Luiz Felipe Scolari believes Didier Drogba will be important for the club, but admits he needs to find a way for him to play alongside Nicolas Anelka.
The Ivory Coast international has been struggling with injuries this season.
“Drogba is one of the best strikers in the world,” said Scolari. “I have more options now he is fit. But he didn’t have a pre-season build-up because of injury and when he came back he got injured again.
“Then he was suspended and now he is back again. But it gives me a chance to play a different system sometimes. Before he was fit, I could not do that.
“He is important but don’t forget we are second in the Champions League group and second in the Barclays Premier League because our top scorer is Nicolas Anelka.
“Drogba is one of the best in the world but I need to think about Anelka. He is as important as Drogba. After this, it is my job to put the two together.”
