What in the world would you bench a player like Didier Driogba? The impact of the 36-year old Galatasaray striker was felt immediately he step on the pith. Morale and leadership was what DD brought to the game last night.
Sabri Lamouchi, the new Ivorian coach and a former French international with just two years of coaching experience offered a somewhat lacking explanation of benching DD. "Part of leaving him on the bench was to do with strategy, part of it was his fitness. The last time he played 90minutes was a few months ago in Turkey and he's had injury since then". Lamouchi explained. Well being it strategy or good-luck, it worked. It was just like playing a game of poker with Ivorian heart.
Meanwhile Galatasaray has confirmed of DD's agreement on a two year contract to the Italian side JUVENTUS.
