SOUNDBITE: (English) Didier Drogba, Montreal Impact striker

SOUNDBITE: (English) Didier Drogba, Montreal Impact

(Q: You've gone from being in a team of superstars to being the focal point, how different is that going to be?)

"A superstar is only the way people look at you but in the dressing room we are all the same. You know I have played with Frank Lampard, John Terry and I played against big players, Steven Gerrard, Andrea Pirlo and they are all simple guys. So we are human being and all I can try to do is to give back to those people, to those players who want to learn and I think I am going to learn also from them."
