Moyes tells his players to be wary of drogba...

David Moyes is wary of Chelsea's in-form striker Didier Drogba.

Drogba has seven goals in his last seven games for Chelsea and scored twice in their win over Arsenal at the weekend.

Moyes sees the Ivorian hitman as a player who is currently at the top of his game.

"At the moment he looks a very good player," declared the Everton boss. "He has got strength, he has got pace, he can take free-kicks, he can head it, I think he has got an awful lot that the modern footballer needs to be at the top."

The Blues boss was dismissive of a derby hangover being a factor on Wednesday evening, instead insisting that his side resume their run of good results.

"We are playing well. We have nothing to fear but we respect Chelsea because they have good players. We have had some good games against them.

"It is a big game at Goodison, it doesn't matter what game came before it," he continued. "It's an interesting Premier League this season in many ways. We have to try and get ourselves into being one of those clubs who are battling at the top."

Chelsea are expected to call upon the services of deposed England captain John Terry after he recovered from a dead leg. But Moyes wouldn't be drawn on any of the media speculation surrounding the defender.

"I haven't got an opinion on it," he added. "It's not my business. He's a very good player, I know that."
