Jose Mourinho 'honoured' to work with Didier Drogba

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho says that he is honoured to work with Didier Drogba once more after bringing the Ivory Coast striker back to Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has said that it is an honour to be working Didier Drogba once more.

The Ivory Coast striker made his second debut for the Blues when he appeared as a substitute in their 2-0 win against Leicester City on Saturday, and the Portuguese coach is delighted to have him back at Stamford Bridge.

"For me to work with him again, is emotional," he told Sky Sports News. "It doesn't matter if he's playing or scoring just to have him back and to have the pleasure and honour to work with him again is enough.

"But the reality is that he helps the team a lot. Today if the result is not 1-0 or 2-0 I'd put him up front with Diego Costa. To have him back is important."

Chelsea are currently top of the Premier League with two wins from two matches.
