Chelsea striker Didier Drogba concedes that the club and himself are struggling for form but is confident both will soon be back on track. "It's a little difficult at the moment, but we will find ways to return," the 30 year old told L'Equipe. "I hope in the Champions League we will do well.

"You can't have a 10-year career where everything is great. I am in a period like that - a little less good.

"Is this difficult to experience? If I say no, people will say I am not ambitious. If I say yes, people will think I am demoralised when it is really not the case.

"It is not easy but it is not the end of the world. The main thing is that I am in good health physically."
