Mind your manners if you talk to Frank - Drogba

Didier Drogba told Chelsea supporters Frank Lampard will always belong to them and urged those travelling to Sunday's title clash against Manchester City not to turn on the club legend and record goalscorer.
Lampard is on loan the Etihad Stadium from New York City, the MLS team owned by City which he joined in the summer after 13 years at Stamford Bridge.
'It doesn't matter what team he is playing for now,' said Drogba. 'He belongs to us. He is a Chelsea player, for what he did. He made the crowd shout and cheer his name and cheer for us, a lot of times here.
'It's a pity that I've come back and he's not here anymore but I know for sure I will be happy to see him again. I can't wait to see my partner in crime.
'He's part of the history of this club and the fans know what he gave for the club. They know what he did. So I know the reaction will be good. I know that, for sure.'
Drogba, 36, is a Chelsea player once again after two years away. He returned last season to play against Jose Mourinho's team for Galatasaray in the Champions League. He received a rapturous ovation from fans at the Bridge and found it hard to cope with the emotion, as will Lampard if he plays at the Etihad on Sunday.
'I did it and so I know it's going to be difficult,' said Drogba. 'But I know Frank and he will do his best.'
