Didier Drogba believes that he can continue to perform at the highest level.

Chelsea striker Didier Drogba has said that he can continue to play at the top level for at least a couple more years.

The former Marseille man, who has not been a regular in the Blues' lineup this season, fired Chelsea into the next round of the Champions League with two goals in their 3-0 win over Valencia in midweek.

Speaking after the match, the Ivorian insisted that he can still perform at the highest level.

"I started late," he told reporters. "I was 25 when I played my first Champions League games.

"I feel happy, I feel good on the pitch, I really enjoy my football and when we are winning like this I'm really delighted.

"I don't calculate, but I hope I've got at least a couple more years left in me."

Drogba, who arrived at Stamford Bridge in 2004, has scored 98 goals in 212 league games for the club.
