Champions League: Chelsea's Drogba warns Barcelona that it will be blown away

By Super Admin

London, May 6 (ANI): Chelsea striker Didier Drogba has warned Barcelona that they will be blown away in the Champions League semi-final.

The Chelsea striker taunted the Catalan giants by insisting the Blues have more match winners in their team.

With so much hype around Barca's 'holy trinity' of Leo Messi, Samuel Eto'o and Thierry Henry, the Ivory Coast striker hit back with a volley of his own.

Drogba, 31, said: "I think, in the last few months, we've shown that we can score goals and, OK, they have Messi, Henry, Eto'o, and Andres Iniesta but we can also score.

"We've got more players able to score. Our midfielders, our defenders can also score. We can score from every position in our side. We know that. We know that and we have to score goals to win the tie," The Sun quoted him, as saying.n the knockout stages alone, Chelsea has found goals from four different players in three areas of the team.

Drogba is more determined than ever to make any chance count.

"It would be great for Chelsea if I'd managed to score that goal, but Valdes made two fantastic saves. Yes, I was a bit frustrated. In these kind of games, if you manage to score it makes a big difference. As a striker, you know that. If you miss a chance one game, another might come along in the next.

That is what you hope. I hope to have similar chances on Wednesday to make a difference," he said. (ANI)
