Didier Drogba has continued burning bridges at Chelsea after his omission from the FA Cup replay against Southend United, according to The Daily Mail.
The British tabloid reports that the Ivorian striker complained to manager Luiz Felipe Scolari at missing out on the trip to Essex and being forced to train with the reserves.
Indeed, the newspaper went on to claim that Drogba said he has been unfairly blamed for the Blues' embarrassing defeat to Manchester United last weekend.
This latest incident will hardly improve the 30-year-old's standing at Stamford Bridge, where he is already unpopular and often cited as the main source of unrest within the playing squad.
And as Nicolas Anelka scored in the 4-1 victory at Roots Hall, Drogba could be set for a lengthy spell on the pine.
