Players: Didier Drogba and Nicolas Anelka

Drogba's "will he, won't he" leave Chelsea routine has raged over the summer and is sure to have unsettled the Blues normally consistent strikers.

New wonder manager, Phil Scolari should be able to settle players down at the front. But many Chelsea supporters are still surprised to see that Abramovich has not shelled out for a truly unique and relentless forward to replace the failed Andriy Shevchenko.

One still has to wonder if Drogba - who has been on fire the last two seasons – will be able to show the commitment needed make the difference, or if Anelka can truly recover from his Champions League penalty miss.
