Chelsea throw money at Drogba

Scolari has made his intentions to keep Didier Drogba at Stamford Bridge clear after he stated that he wants “him to stay 100 per cent. No, 200 per cent,” as reported by The Sun.

The Ivory Coast striker has been frequently linked with moves to Italy and Spain after he made it very clear that he is considering his future. However Chelsea believe they know just what to do to make their striker happy again.

According to a report in The Sun, Drogba will be offered a new deal which will hike his current pay check – believed to be worth about £70,000 per week – to £130,000, which is thought to be the amount that John Terry earns.

This news will be welcomed by Chelsea fans who have seen talismanic midfielder, Frank Lampard push for a move to Inter Milan.

    Job well done Scolari, Giving Drogba such a mammoth raise in order to secure his service, is a great accomplishment for you and the Chelsea Team. I think you are now working like a great coalition builder. I’ve been kind of little bit grim since I heard some rumours that you (Scolari) wanted to let Drogba go for Eto’o. Frankly speaking, I’m a 100% Eto’o’s fan, but equally so, I do regard every great soccer player. From my perspective, I think Drogba is a great player and he does possess every quality a great player needs. Regardless of Drogba’s age, I think he is more stronger than Eto’o. Drogba has great fighting spirit,(speed, shots,etc). Drogba’s performance in the just ended Uefa Champion League’s semi-final match that saw them finally crushed Die-Hard Liverpool, glaring his qualities to the football communities and the entire world. To conclude, I say bravo scolari for your potencity to increase the player’s salary, and I hope you live by your words.

    i agree with them true Chelsea fans the Ivorian is true blue and for long deserved even much better,thats positive but it was long over due.the ivorian only now needs to be focussed on scoring more and more goals for the blues as they have shown their appreciation of his work.Scholari should also increase the supply line to the Ivorian for blue magic

    I have said it time and again that a prolific scorer like Drogba is pure gold and can be irreplaceable at Chelsea! As a fan, allowing him to leave Chelsea will be suicidal. Having seen proven strikers like Shevchenko and Anelka under-perform (so far at Stamford Bridge), I want to draw everyone’s attention to the vacuum left behind by the departure of Arjen Robben (despite the injury lay-offs during his stay). Up to now, Chelsea does not have any player as fast and unpredictable (as Robben) who can make things happen out of nothing. It would have been even a greater mistake to allow Drogba to leave. So throwing more money at him is a major step in the right direction. How can John Terry, Shevchenko, Ballack and Lampard be earning so much and Drogba earns £70K? Just like Scolari, I believe 200% in Didier Drogba.
