Chelsea are resigned to being without Didier Drogba
for Sunday's daunting trip to the champions, Manchester United, as the
Ivory Coast forward continues his recovery after suffering concussion
during his team's victory over Norwich City last month.
Drogba was
knocked unconscious after he was accidentally punched by the visiting
goalkeeper, John Ruddy, as the pair contested a looping ball on the edge
of the box during the Londoners' 3-1 success at Stamford Bridge a
little over two weeks ago. The striker was taken to St Mary's hospital
in Paddington that night and underwent a brain scan and, although he was
discharged on the same evening having apparently suffered only "mild
concussion", the player is still apparently feeling the effects of the
blow to his head.
