In a massive U-Turn, Chelsea's Ivorian striker Didier Drogba has pledged his future to the club stating he is "100% committed" to the club.

Drogba, who was earlier linked to Barcelona, AC Milan, and Inter Milan has revealed he has no intentions of leaving West London just yet.

"I have always said that I am very happy at Chelsea. It's a great team with great players and a great coach.

"Everything's going well here, and I have two years left on my contract and I will spend them at Chelsea."

New boss Luiz Felipe Scolari earlier revealed his ambitions of having Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba stay with the Blues.

However, I think this is very interesting because only in October last year, Drogba was quoted saying he wished to leave Chelsea.

"I want to leave Chelsea, something is broken with Chelsea. Nothing can stop me from leaving now."

    If Scholari was bright enough to know about oppurtunity costs, i'm sure he wouldn't be in the situation he is in right now!

    Let our olde dog Didier stay!!
    To be honest, the Milans and Barca won't have him, with rich Roman we don't need the roubles and I don't want to go to the trouble of changing my number 11 Drogba Mochama T-shirt to Deco or sumthing. Tony.
