Petr Cech has warned his Chelsea teammates to be careful in dealing with former player Didier Drogba tomorrow night.

Drogba, who spent eight years at the Blues, faces his old club with Galatasaray in the Champions League.

"Didier was with us for nine years and a huge part of our team, a successful team, in that time," Cech is quoted as saying by PA.

"It's the first time he'll be playing against us. We know how important he is for Galatasaray, how big a player he is, so we have to be careful how we play against him and make sure he doesn't score."

Drogba has scored eight goals for Galatasaray this season in all competitions.
