Chelsea continue to make as many waves off the field as they do on it.

 

24 hours after a famous 1-0 win over Italian giants Juventus, Frank Lampard’s praise of goalscoring hero Didier Drogba was overshadowed by rumours over the future of Salomon Kalou.

Drogba’s new lease of life under Guus Hiddink has allowed the Ivory Coast striker to find his form again, according to the England midfielder. "When Didier is on form, he's the full package," said Lampard, “from now on I think you are going to see more and more of what we know of him“. Drogba’s goal on Wednesday has given his side a fantastic chance to continue their progress in the Champions League. However, the rumours of unsettled players in the camp will not have been aided by the revelation that another of the Blues forwards, Salomon Kalou was flattered by purported interest by Arsene Wenger, manager of bitter local rivals Arsenal. Kalou reportedly said that he was ‘honoured’ by Wenger’s interest and that while happy at Stamford Bridge at the moment he would ‘think of his future once the season is over’. Clearly all that glitters is still not necessarily gold for Roman Abramovich.
