Drogba meets his former team in a potentially exciting UEFA Champions League round of 16 tie in Istanbul.

Mourinho said he was looking forward to the match as he liked playing against the best but was very much aware of the threat posed by Drogba.

Mourinho told UEFA.com “I like to play against the best and Galatasaray are the Turkish champions”.

“As for Drogba, we will have to do our job because we know he will want to do his, which is to score goals. It is a strange feeling to play him and we have to try to forget it.”

“Last season Galatasaray made it very difficult for me with Real Madrid and this year will be no different. They were a good team and they have almost exactly the same team, but have strengthened with a few extra players.”
