London's "Chelsea" club will find it much more difficult to achieve good results without Didier Drogba, says the famous Jose Mourinho.
The African player, who represented the English team for eight years and was called by Mourinho himself when he was coaching "Chelsea," went to China this summer.
"Didier is very important - I don't think there is anyone who can replace him," said the Real Madrid coach. "You can buy top-class footballers and invest a lot of money, like 'Chelsea' does, but Drogba is only one in the history of the English Premier League and this club.
"Drogba shines at the most crucial moments. In the final, in the decisive match, we will always see him. When the team is losing at home, Drogba is there. The 'Chelsea' team will miss him, which will result in several fewer points won. However, the team is still strong, they won the Champions League."
