Lampard’s penalty pass will be to Didier Drogba in the game against Wigan for the potential title. This is in fact an attempt of spoiling the chance of Wayne Rooney of winning the Golden Boot award. Drogba recently said to one of the newspaper, “To finish above Rooney in the scorers’ table would be the cherry on the cake… Three years ago, I finished above him and we didn’t win the league. There was something missing… But if there is a penalty to take, I have already agreed with Lampard that I will take it.”
Rooney and Drogba are now on top of the charts with 26 goals each. The next match is the final game of the season.
This season Drogba is in ful form and it is the best in his life which has also aided Chelsea in leading the league by one point over Manchester United, the title leaders.
It was due to the goal of Drogba against the Man Uni in April that turned the league on its head.
Drogba also said, “I think it’s my best season here by far. I have been consistent, despite going to the Africa Cup of Nations for a month and a half in the heat of Angola… It was hard going from 35C to minus four! You come home and two days later you have to face Hull. It’s not easy. Despite this, I’ve had no bad patch… Can Chelsea lose the title? Nothing is done yet. But it would be crazy to let it go now.”
