The two countries were born out of British colonial India in 1947, divided into Hindu-majority India and Islamic Pakistan. The pair met briefly in Paris last month on the sidelines of the COP21 climate change conference.

Much like the departed Mourinho, Drogba remains a much-loved figure at Stamford Bridge following two trophy-laden spells in West London.

The drive to recapture Ramadi – involving Iraqi troops, police, militias, and USA air support – seems to be going well so far. The head of military operations said the Iraqi offensive is being hampered by suicide bombs, snipers and booby traps .

The following New Year, under the interim direction of Rafael Benitez, Chelsea signed only Demba Ba – again, not the boss’ preferred target, but a tentative admission by the club that faith in Torres was foundering.

Chelsea interim manager Guus Hiddink has admitted that it was “not easy” to fix problems that the defending champions are facing this season.

They helped Chelsea to third, lifted the FA Cup and also made the semi-finals of the Champions League, where Barcelona beat them with a late Andres Iniesta goal.

That, he announced in the euphoria of victory, was that.

Now Hiddink is at the helm for the rest of the season and while a place in the top four remains a target, it is far from probable with 11 points to make up between now and May.

‘He knows guys, he knows the atmosphere in the club, he knows the supporters love him, and knows he is always welcome.

“And see what anyone can contribute from now on to raise us up”.

But it’s all gone wrong for the Portuguese.

Chelsea sit 15th in the Premier League after 17 games, just three points above the drop-zone. They’re also out of the League Cup.

Hiddink, at the age of 69, is clearly only a short-term appointment, but surely it’s too soon to give the job to Terry.

This all seeped out in the game against Sunderland, with the fans making their feelings on Mourinho, and the performances of some of the players, well known.

“Kenny Dalglish did it as a player-manager, although I don’t think John should do it that way”. Drogba represents the real core of the club.

Moyes’ United and this season’s Chelsea aren’t the only ones who have struggled more than most the season after the celebration.

Watford are on the rise in recent weeks with four consecutive wins lifting them up to seventh in the standings. Must be better. Fàbregas – I don’t know how many assists previous year.

“There must be a great desire to play, yes?” We have only spoken about until the end of the season.

For Chelsea, 2015/16 has largely been written off already, with professional pride and – in some cases – long-term futures the only things left to play for.

“But our objective is to have him back for another season, as agreed in his contract”. That camapign starts in March.

“We are now in contact with Didier Drogba and Chelsea FC”, Montreal Impact said on its Twitter page Wednesday.

“We are willing to accommodate him”. Buying out a contract to bring back a club legend would be a mere bagatelle for the billionaire.
