Why Didier Drogba Should Remain a Blue...

 There's a lot that can and has been said of one of Chelsea best strikers ever. When he joined the Club in 2004, we knew we were getting a great striker, but we didn't know how great. he showed what he could do and soon joined Terry and Lampard as a face of the club. He no undoubtedly is a Stamford Bridge legend and one of, if not my favorite footballers.
This summer there's been lots of talks of double D leaving the bridge, calls for new manager Villas-Boas to send him on his way, to places like Tottenham, Galatasaray and even his former home Marseille. While most of this talk has been based on his age, which is understandable, we can't just forget his skills, strength and passion that has numerous times been quite the weapon for the club.
My previous entry was my thoughts on the summer transfer talks and speculation of Chelsea.  I deferred my thoughts on DD because I was still thinking about it. Then I realized for me there was no thinking, Didieer Drogba should remain a blue...
  • He has to remain a blue, because he still terrifies defenders with his ball movement and physical strength, Period.
  • He has to remain a blue because Didier Drogba will always Score goals, somehow, somewhere, just ask Arsenal.
  • He has to remain a blue because each time he is on the field I know we have a chance of winning, is it crucial goals in FA cups? or Great goal scoring in the league leading to the League cup? ( He was there and played a huge part  for 3 of the club's 4 Premier League trophies!) he absolutely helped push the club to its current new heights.
  • He has to remain a blue because he is a leader in the team and the new players will benefit from him.
  • He has to remain a blue because he embodies the confidence, swagger, brash attitude and culture that is Chelsea Football club and never apologizes about it.
  • He has to remain a blue because he is still one of the best strikers at 33.
  • He has to remain a blue, because I feel domestic and European Glory is ours this season, and I sure wanna see him lift that trophy with a blue, number 11 jersey on.
  • He should remain a blue because the fans love him and want him at the club.
  • He has to remain a blue because  well its Didier Drogba and if Terry and Lampard are staying put so should Drogba.
  • He should remain a blue because I still wanna hear commentators go  "and its Drogbaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...."
