Drogba out of Villa clash
But JT is back Didier Drogba is out of tomorrow's clash at Aston Villa. The Ivory Coast hitman is suffering from a mystery virus. Carlo Ancelotti gave his opponents 24 hours notice on how to stop the league leaders by announcing his starting 11. Thankfully skipper John Terry is back from his back injury which meant he missed England woeful midweek match, but, said the Italian: "Frank Lampard is not available, Drogba is not available, Sturridge is not available, Kalou is not available, Alex is not available, Benayoun is not available. "The line-up will be Cech, Ferreira, Ivanovic, Terry and Cole, Ramires, Essien and Mikel, strikers Kakuta, Malouda and Anelka." Quite why Ancelotti needs to reveal his hand so early is a mystery. Not letting on that Drogba was going to miss the game would have put the fear of God into the Villa back-four. Now they will have a much better sleep tonight. Should Carlo name his team a day beforehand? Have your say in the messageboard now.
