Chelsea striker Didier Drogba is pleased at the way in which team-mate Florent Malouda has won over the critics this season at Stamford Bridge.
The French winger played a key role in the Blues' weekend win over Manchester United, crossing for Joe Cole's opener and maintaining his fine recent form.
Drogba, a team-mate of Malouda's at Guingamp seven years ago, feels that his coleague is at last receiving the recognition his talent deserves.
"Everybody recognises his talent now," Drogba told the Blues' official website.
"It has been difficult for him to change leagues and also he had quite a few injuries at first but every time he has played this season he was good.
"He is not the type of player who will do many skills but he is really efficient, with simple touches, passes, assists, and he is clever.
"He reads the game well and that is the kind of player we need in our squad."
