Drogba's move to the far east explained

Didier Drogba has possibly shed light on the reasons for his move from Chelsea to China (bar the money). Indeed, the Sun reports that the legendary Ivorian "blacked out" upon scoring the winning penalty in the shoot out to defeat Bayern Munich in their own back yard.

Perhaps that explains the remarkable course of action that saw Drogba decide to leave Chelsea as one of their greatest ever players and relocate to Shanghai. After all, Drogba was hardly being underpaid at Stamford Bridge and one would imagine moving to China would not exactly be a simple procedure.

However, we've all had those black outs, usually after a Saturday night. The morning after is usually a painful one. Perhaps with all the reports of Drogba possibly moving back to the Premier League, the Ivorian is had the same awakening.
