Didier Drogba has warned that Jose Mourinho might be experiencing a return of the third-year blues.
The
Chelsea manager is currently enduring the worst period in his coaching
career, with the Stamford Bridge club languishing in 16th place with 11
points.
Speaking about the end of Mourinho’s first stint as
Chelsea manager in September 2007, Drogba wrote in his new
autobiography, ‘Commitment’: “I believe things often come in three-year
cycles (and) we had arrived at the end of such a cycle.
“By
the start of the fourth (season) that Jose had been in charge, I think
we had started to reach a point where it was sometimes harder for his
message to get through.
“We wanted to hear it, we tried, but somehow we had lost a little bit of what made us special.”
This season, Chelsea have lost seven of their 12 games – and 10 of 19 in all competitions.
