Drogba pledges to play team role (09.08.2005)
Chelsea 2-1 Arsenal
Didier Drogba is determined to help Chelsea lift more trophies this season whether he starts in the team or not. The Ivory Coast striker, 27, who struggled with injuries last season, began the new campaign with a brace in the Community Shield win over Arsenal.
"I do not want to speak or say `I am happy` or `I am not happy` - the only answer I can give is on the pitch.
"The most important thing is not that you start, it is making a difference when you come on," he said.
Drogba suffered from ankle and groin problems last season and only scored 16 goals in 41 appearances, many of which came from the bench.
But he has
shown encouraging form in pre-season matches and looked strong and sharp in Sunday`s win at the Millennium Stadium.
He added: "I feel comfortable now because I have rested a lot and that was what I needed.
"Now I hope I will not have any injuries this year and can improve."
Chelsea, who also fielded summer signings Asier del Horno and Shaun Wright-Phillips on Sunday, looked more than comfortable when defeating Arsenal.
But Drogba maintained that there would be no chance of any over-confidence in the Blues camp.
He insisted: "We have another week to improve and we will work harder because we have to if we are to keep the championship."
