Nothing, it seems, can deflect Chelsea from its pursuit of the Premier League title, not even the absence of its leading striker, Diego Costa.
Wednesday's 3-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur was achieved without the Spain international who was suspended but, then again, the man filling his boots was Didier Drogba.
The Cote d'Ivorian, who scored 157 goals in his first spell at the club, returned on a one-year deal this season and despite being 36, showed just why he and Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, who first signed him in 2004, are apparently inseparable.
