Carroll is the head boy – Drogba
(02-12-2010) Didier Drigba has sung the praises of Newcastle striker Andy Carroll. In particular Drogba says he is impressed with the young England striker’s heading ability. "I've been very impressed with him. People say I'm good in the air but he's not bad either,” commented the 33-year-old Ivorian on Wednesday. "What he (Carroll) does, and what I like to do, is attack the ball. You have to do this to give it the direction you want, whether you are flicking it on to one of your team-mates or going for goal yourself." Drogba, who has been captaining Chelsea in the absence of the injured John Terry, will hope to get the Blues back to winning ways against Everton this weekend. The Blues recent form has been patchy with three losses and a draw in their past five matches.
