The visit of Spartak Moscow sees a long-awaited return to Champions League action for Chelsea's Didier Drogba, the player whose misdemeanours in the past three years have come to symbolize the club's frustrations with Europe's premier competition. For three years running, Drogba has started the season with a suspension, caused by losing his temper as Chelsea's Champions League ambitions have bitten the dust time and again. Last season he was sent off with six minutes left in Chelsea's 1-0 home defeat to International for stamping on Thiago Motta, for which he received a two-game ban. In 2009, he was suspended for four games, which was reduced to three on appeal, when he exploded in an expletive-ridden rage at TV cameras after Chelsea's elimination by Barcelona. What do you think about his presence for the match against Spartak Moscow?
