The Ivorian made his first pre-season appearance at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, while Terry played the full 90 minutes and Drogba belives the England skipper is going nowhere.

"He's our captain and we need him and we know he's going to stay with us and win more trophies," Drogba told ESPN.

Of his side coming face to face with former Blues boss Mourinho, Drogba said: "It's always nice to see him, he was a big part of Chelsea's success and now we're moving on.

"We have a new manager now and we're all happy for him because he won his second game out of two, so it's all good. We're working hard, this is only the start and we want to be ready for the start of the season."

Goals from Drogba in the 11th minute and a Frank Lampard penalty just after half-time gave Chelsea the victory over the Italian champions.

Drogba's own future has been in question while the offer of a new three-year contract remains unsigned, but Ancelotti revealed the striker has indicated he will stay to form a key part of the Italian's new-look team.

"Drogba is a very important player for us and we want him to play for Chelsea. He's irreplaceable as no other striker in the world can do the same job. I've spoken with Drogba and know what he wants. He told me he's happy to stay," said Ancelotti.

However, Ancelotti offered less encouragement to Andriy Shevchenko, who made his name playing for him at AC Milan.

"I speak to Shevchenko every day and the situation is this: he's with us until August 31 and then we take a decision together. I don't know what will happen as the club has not received any offers."
