  DROGBA: I WISH I HAD PUNCHED VIDIC

  

  'I Should Have Punched Him'

   

  A charming Didier Drogba, whose Chelsea side didn't seem to miss him in their 5-0 win over Boro, says he wishes he had punched Nemanja Vidic in the Champions League final, rather than being sent off for acting like a prissy little schoolgirl.

  The Chelsea striker was dismissed towards the end of extra time after raising his hands towards the Manchester United defender, with the Red Devils going on to triumph in a dramatic penalty shoot-out. 

  Drogba believes he should not have seen red, but claims he would prefer to have acted in a way which would have seen him deserve to be given his marching orders. 

  The Ivory Coast international said in his autobiography: "I have seen the match on video and I believe I should not have been sent off with three minutes to go. "If I had punched him, I would have understood. Now I wish I had." 

  Drogba claims his frustrations boiled over in the closing stages because of his desire for victory and his anger at missing a chance earlier in the match. He added: "You have a lot of regrets when you go to the final and lose it. I have more regrets about losing the final than being sent off. 

  "But it wasn't the worst feeling. Hitting the post was. I wasn't feeling well because I was playing alone and against world-class defenders. When you get a chance like that you have to take it. 

  "Some Chelsea fans blame me for losing. I can take it but I think I gave my best, as I always do, because I want to be No.1. Sometimes I want that too much. 

  "I apologised to my friends. People can make mistakes."

  well, it will be good sight when both tried to go at each other, missed, and does a "rivaldo"... falling to the ground, crunching to their faces and inbetween fingers looking at what the referee does...

  Drogba faces book probe

   

  CHELSEA ace Didier Drogba is facing an FA rap after an amazing claim that he wished he had punched Nemanja Vidic.

  Drogba was sent off in May’s Champions League final for slapping the Manchester United defender — and in his autobiography Drogba now says he should have gone even further.

  The Blues striker, 30, who could be suspended or fined for bringing the game into disrepute, wrote: “I have seen the match on video and I believe that I should not have been sent off.

  “If I had punched him I would have understood. Now I wish I had.”

  An FA spokesman revealed: “We are aware of the comments and will be examining them in their proper context.”

  Six years ago former United skipper Roy Keane was banned for five games and fined £150,000 after admitting in his book that he had deliberately injured Alf-Inge Haaland.
