Crespo not getting the Blues on the bench

HERNAN CRESPO has pledged to be patient as he tries to wrestle the striking role from Didier Drogba at Chelsea.

The Argentinian, who has denied any bad feeling between himself and Chelsea coach Jose Mourinho, is confident his time will come.

The 30-year-old has started just five Premiership matches and played 59 minutes in the Champions League for the Blues - but he will be involved in Argentina’s friendly clash with England in Geneva tomorrow.
