I feel at home when I go to London.”Last week, Mourinho spoke about the influence Drogba could have on his squad. He said: "I can use Didier as a profile to persuade youngsters to follow me because he followed me from day one.”Mourinho signed Drogba for Chelsea and the Ivory Coast international scored 157 goals over eight years.After visiting Cobham, Drogba linked up with the rest of the Galatasaray squad for the club’s training camp at St George’s Park.Sunday he played a part in his side’s 3-0 beating of Shrewsbury in a friendly at Greenhous Meadow.
