Zokora determined to end taunts of Chelsea's Drogba

Tottenham midfielder Didier Zokora wants to win the Carling Cup final next week against Chelsea - to silence Ivory Coast teammate Didier Drogba.

He revealed: "After the (semifinal) result there was also a lot of talk between me and Didier Drogba and Salomon Kalou, the Chelsea players in the Ivory Coast squad.

"Didier was saying that he has won this trophy two times with Chelsea and I couldn't say anything in reply. But I will do my talking on the pitch and I told him 'I will see you on 24 February'.

"It will be great if we can end the month with our first trophy for a few years. It would be a good achievement for the manager and the players."
