Despite scoring 10 goals in 22 appearances, Drogba has not played since the end of September - partly due to a feud over playing time with manager Mauro Biello and more recently because of a back ailment. "I don't think those chances will be good," Biello said on Tuesday, according to MLSSoccer.com.
