    And then there's this from Damien Richardson:
    [Didier Drogba] appears completely devoid of comprehending the trauma and inner turmoil endured by my very self to in order to facilitate the arrival at such an admirable junction in my spiritual development that, initially, surprised me greatly, and then enabled me to expunge myself of so many demons that I was beginning to believe that I was ready to transcend to the spirit world itself.

    You have to understand. I have been involved in professional football for so many years that I had long harboured thoughts that my soul had emigrated to the outer edges of the universe and I would have to spend the next couple of lives traversing the wilderness in an effort to reconcile myself with that exquisite source of internal splendour...

    Ha you people are obviously not too familiar with the mans work. That's pretty dumbed down by his standards. Believe it or not, it's not just his writing, his post match interviews/punditry are the exact same.
