Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says it's crazy for Chelsea striker Didier Drogba to be playing for Ivory Coast.

Drogba played for 20 minutes of Ivory Coast's goalless opener with Portugal - less than two weeks after breaking his right arm - and is expected to face Brazil today.

But Wenger believes to include someone so obviously crocked is a silly - no matter how vital he is to Sven Goran Eriksson's side.

The Arsenal manager said: "Even though Drogba plays, he is not really there.

"Drogba is a phenomenon but even if you are a phenomenon you cannot break your arm, have surgery and then be back playing at the best level so quickly. It's important for a player to be fit for such big games. But I simply don't believe he is."
