Chelsea star Didier Drogba insists he is improving with age
Didier Drogba has fired out a warning to Premier League defences by claiming he is improving with age.[LNB]Chelsea striker Drogba turns 33 in March but insists he has yet to reach his peak as a player because he was a latecomer to top-flight football.[LNB]He said: 'I think I'm getting better with age. I started very late at the highest level as I was 25 when I played one season for Marseille and then I came here.[LNB] In form: Drogba (right) in action against Newcastle last weekend[LNB]'So I don't know if that's a good or bad thing, but I feel I'm improving every season.[LNB]'And, because I started late, I'm not tired or fed up with playing.[LNB]'I don't know when I'm going to stop because I love what I'm doing.'[LNB]Drogba has been captaining Chelsea in the absence of John Terry and Frank Lampard but his time with the armband has coincided with a poor run of results.[LNB]One point from three Premier League games has seen the Blues surrender top spot, while Drogba has now not found the net in six matches in all competitions.[LNB]He said: 'I try to motivate and give the example on the pitch - you've got to make sure what you say in the dressing room, you apply it on the pitch. But it's the same when I'm not captain.[LNB]'This armband doesn't change anything for me. I don't change my personality, I'm the same as always.'[LNB]Drogba, who is in his seventh season at Stamford Bridge, has two main aims for the rest of the campaign.[LNB]He told the club's official magazine: 'First of all, it is for everybody to be in good health because with health you can try to achieve everything you want. Then I want to see everybody at Chelsea celebrating the Champions League at Wembley.'[LNB] Wilkins seals pay-off from Chelsea after being sacked as Ancelotti's No 2Kakuta could quit Chelsea as AC Milan head queue for French midfielderChelsea splash £9m on agents fees as Premier League clubs spend £67mCHELSEA FC
