London, Nov.6 Chelsea midfielder Deco has warned Manchester United that Ivory Coast striker Didier Drogba will emerge as the star of Sunday's Stamford Bridge clash between the two teams.

Deco is confident that Drogba will make sure Chelsea bag four points - three for the win and one for the morale boost of beating their closest rivals.

Drogba is in sizzling form with 12 goals in 13 games.

The Sun quoted Deco, 32, as saying: "The big difference between us and United is in attack. Drogba is enjoying a spectacular moment in his career and is superior to the front-line of United."

"For me, Didi will be the key - the star of the match, for sure," he added.

Leaders Chelsea are two points ahead of the Red Devils.

"This match has a four-point value, an extra one for the blow to United's morale because they also failed to beat Liverpool. If they fail in London they will need to think very much about things in the following days," Deco said.

Deco who cost the Blues eight million pounds in 2007, added: "I'm enjoying my best form since arriving from Barcelona. Physically I'm perfect." (ANI)
