Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has rubbished Didier Drogba’s claims that the Blues lack leadership this season.
Mourinho’s charges sit 15th in the table, having lost seven times prompting Drogba to claim that the current crop are in desperate need of "big characters".
Drogba, 37, recently released his autobiography entitled 'Commitment' and Mourinho feels that his comments are merely aimed at promoting his book.
"When you speak because you want to sell books, I don't read. I don't read," the Chelsea boss is quoted as saying
"I like good interviews. I like interviews from big guys like Didier with good journalists, newspapers or television.
"But this is not an interview. It was to sell books. It doesn't disappoint me. It was just the reality.
"It was just to sell books. I can analyse Didier's interview with pleasure, but not Didier selling books."
The former Ivory Coast international won four league titles across two spells with the West Londoners, with three of those trophies coming in one of Mourinho's two stints.
