Irish defender, Stephen O'Halloran, is
hoping to get a chance at keeping Chelsea's top marksman, Didier
Drogba, under control.
O'Halloran, 19, was rotting in the Aston Villa reserves only two
months ago but is currently enjoying a successful loan spell at
Wycombe Wanderers.
O'Halloran's loan spell is due to end next week but he is hoping
that Aston Villa will extend the loan and provide him with the
chance to face Chelsea in the semi-final of the Carling Cup in
January.
"It's out of my hands whether they keep me on but I'd much rather
be here than playing reserve games back in Villa", he told the
Irish Daily Star.
"I'd love the chance to mark some of their strikers," he added,
referring to Chelsea.
A meeting between Villa's reserve coach, Kevin McDonald and Wycombe
manager, Paul Lambert, later this week, will decide the
centre-back's immediate future.
he must be dreaming
