Former Chelsea striker, Didier Drogba has had his say on matters concerning Eden Hazard’s contract situation and what he thinks about Alvaro Morata since he joined the club last year.
Drogba also praised his former club for ensuring N’golo Kante signs a five-year deal and urged Belgian winger, Eden Hazard to do the same.
His words to Goal, “He has to be the next one to sign.”
He then announced that Hazard is Prince of Stamford Bridge after his several successful seasons at the London club since he joined from Lille.
On Morata, he sympathized with the former Real Madrid striker because he knew how big a job it was to be the target man up front for a huge club like Chelsea.
His words, “It’s definitely not easy. It happens to everyone to go through difficult moments. What mostly gets you through that period is the support of the fans. And Chelsea fans have been great to him, giving him all the support.
“Everyone, including me, was very happy when he started scoring again. He’s a really nice guy, and most importantly a great striker. You don’t play for Juventus and Real Madrid if you’re good enough, and I think he’s great,” he claimed.
On the battle for top4, he said, “I think it’s cut out clearly for the players. If you don’t perform, the next guy would come and do it, and take your spot. There’s no other way, you have to work, improve and be better.
“Because when you’re in a competition, a fair competition, with the likes of Hernan Crespo, Andriy Shevchenko, Fernando Torres, Nicolas Anelka, you know that if you don’t perform, these guys will come and score two goals and you have to sit in the bench for the next game. So you have to keep working hard, and that’s what I did,” reminisced the Ivorian.”
