Chelsea are resigned to being without Didier Drogba for Sunday's daunting trip to the champions, Manchester United, as the Ivory Coast forward continues his recovery after suffering concussion during his team's victory over Norwich City last month.
Drogba was knocked unconscious after he was accidentally punched by the visiting goalkeeper, John Ruddy, as the pair contested a looping ball on the edge of the box during the Londoners' 3-1 success at Stamford Bridge a little over two weeks ago. The striker was taken to St Mary's hospital in Paddington that night and underwent a brain scan and, although he was discharged on the same evening having apparently suffered only "mild concussion", the player is still apparently feeling the effects of the blow to his head.
