JUMPING THE GUN

Didier Drogba seems to think the Premiership has already finished. Wouldn't it be a shame if this came back to make him look an even bigger prick?

He said: 'We have won the title. This season we are the best. Everybody knows we are now six points in front of United but we have one game in hand so we will do our best to keep the nine points and keep the distance.

'Okay, Manchester United are playing well and there is still Arsenal of course. But I think we are the best team.'

Mourinho's arrogance seems to be contagious in the Chelsea dressing room.
Glen Johnson went on: 'They are clutching at straws. United wanted us to lose and hit a run of bad form.

'If I was in their shoes I would want us to lose every game and for other teams to make us struggle. The less we struggle, the worse it is for them.'

Meanwhile the rent boys are in hot water with UEFA for their behaviour in the first leg of the Champions League match.

A UEFA Spokesman confirmed: 'We have started a disciplinary case against
Chelsea for the late arrival on to the pitch from the dressing room for the second half and the non-appearance of the coach at the post match media conference.

'We have notified the club that the matter will be dealt with on March 24 and they can submit a statement to us.'
