Galatasaray's Didier Drogba will be full of emotion when he strides out to face his former club Chelsea on Wednesday, but Jose Mourinho knows the striker will be as clinical as ever on the field.
The Champions League last-16 first-leg clash in Istanbul is the first time the Ivorian has been on the pitch with the Blues since scoring the winning goal when Chelsea lifted the trophy in May 2012.
The 35-year-old, who media reports say could return to the London club as striker coach, is Chelsea's record European scorer with 34 goals in 69 matches.
