    That Drogba didn't try a leg out there tonight and the running around the stadium along with his whole demeanor before and during the game serves to show a massive disrespect to his current club who are paying him fairly massive wages.

    He's 36 and not good enough any more. The whole team were shocking.

    I have to agree with Kerrs comments re Drogba - he's a professional first and foremost and he doesn't look to have bothered his hole tonight.

    If this was a dead rubber, game 6 of the group or something you might expect it but it's the last 16, you have to give more.

    How good he is at this stage isn't the point though. That wasn't his best effort, nowhere near it infact. He's performed far better for them in earlier stages of the competition.

    They spent long stretches of a last 16 tie with a chance while their fans gave them everything in the stands. Some embarrassing performances in that context imo.

    I thought he did try hard but when he's not getting any service what else can you expect him to do?

    Lads, I'm a huge Drogba fan. One of my favourite players and I hope he does it at this year's world cup but I genuinely thought he was lazy tonight.

    Drogba's performance was summed up in the free-kick Gala had in the first half. 35+ yards out towards the wing. Perfect position to get in a good dangerous cross. Instead he takes the free-kick himself, has a speculative shot and batters it almost out of the stadium. Mancini should have hooked him at that stage.
