Frank Lampard and Dider Drogba won three Premier League titles, four FA Cups, two League Cups and a Champions League together in what was a golden era for Chelsea. But they are team-mates no longer. The duo both moved to MLS last summer and received a positive reception. However, their success since moving to the league has been contrasting.Only injury denied Lampard the chance to play against former Blues team-mate Drogba for the first time, and with the Ivorians Montreal scoring a late equaliser to deny Lampards New York City all three points last night, we assess their time in MLS so far and look at whats been said about them. How have they been getting on?Frank Lampard Frank Lampard has not played for New York City FC so far this season because of injury In 2015, frustrations from New York City FC fans were made clear before Lampards arrival as he decided to stay at Manchester City until the summer rather than play for the brand new MLS franchise from the start of the season.The sense of annoyance remains even into his first full season at the club.Injuries plagued Lampards start and he did not make his debut for NYCFC until August 1 as a late substitute.The former Chelsea midfielder scored three times in 10 appearances while also getting one assist as his side failed to reach the MLS Eastern Conference play-offs, finishing the regular season in eighth place. Lampard and Drogba enjoyed great success as team-mates at Chelsea It took Lampard until September 16 to record his first goal in a 3-0 win over Toronto FC.Before the start of the current 2016 campaign, Lampard told Sky Sports his hope of achieving great things in his first full season at New York City.But injuries have disrupted his campaign once again after he picked up a calf problem early in pre-season. It means he has yet to play a single minute so far in this campaign. MLS: Vieira winless run extends NYCFCs winless run has reached seven matches. Patrick Viera had hoped to have him available for Wednesdays 1-1 draw with Montreal Impact but, speaking after the game, said there remained no timescale for his highly-awaited comeback.We dont want to put any date because it would not be fair to him, Vieira said. Hes working hard, hes working well. When he will be fit, he will be in the squad.Didier Drogba Didier Drogba has been hugely impressive since joining Montreal last summer Former Chelsea ace Drogba won the hearts and minds of Montreal fans as soon as he set foot in Quebec. He was mobbed by supporters at Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport, and he hit the ground running on the pitch.The 37-year-old scored 12 goals in 14 regular season and play-off games for Montreal.His goal-scoring form, combined with his hold-up play, helped lift Montreal from their mid-season slump to a third-placed finish in the Eastern Conference.In the play-offs, the Impact beat arch-rivals Toronto FC in the knockout round 3-0 - Drogba scoring one - before losing to Columbus Crew in the semi-finals.Pre-season was unsettled with rumours surrounding the Impact talismans future, with strong suggestions in January that Drogba would make a return to Chelsea in a player/coach capacity.However, Drogba confirmed on Twitter that he would return to Montreal to play his first full season at the club. It took Didier Drogba just six minutes to score his first MLS goal of the season as he scored the equaliser for Montreal Impact with a backheel While his start to the campaign was delayed after not playing on turf, he has been slowly re-introduced to the line-up.He first appeared on March 19 as a substitute against FC Dallas before next coming on against Chicago Fire just under a month later for 40 minutes. In those 40 minutes, Drogba scored a sublime back-heel goal to get himself on the 2016 scoring charts.The former Ivory Coast international made his first full appearance against Canadian rivals Toronto FC last weekend, playing 90 minutes in the 2-0 loss.And with that game kicking off a run of three matches in one week, Drogba travelled with the team, started the game and created the assist for the injury time equaliser.What theyve said Speaking in January, Frank Lampard believes the new MLS season will be a fresh start for him with New York City FC Frank Lampard (Speaking to Sky Sports ahead of the 2016 season): Im confident actually [about the 2016 season]. I think weve got a good squad and I think we are going to add to it and change it further. Generally, I hope well have a good season and the play-offs are a must for us.Didier Drogba (Speaking after Montreals win v Chicago on April 16): We wanted to pull off a great result here. We wanted to win. Were top of the conference, and we have to show more ambition on the road. This win does us a lot of good.What their coaches say Hes a real champion and hes going through a difficult period. New York City FC head coach Patrick Vieira New York City head coach Patrick Vieira: When you are talking about a player of his [Lampards] calibre, its always better to have him available to play games, Im feeling for him because hes a real champion and hes going through a difficult period, because of course he wants to be on the field, he wants to train and to help the team.Montreal Impact head coach Mauro Biello: He was a big part of the success of the team last year. Its important for Drogba to get minutes. Its about getting his rhythm and being available for us going forward. Get a Sky Sports Week Pass Dont miss the MLS. Watch live on NOW TV from ￡6.99.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- No. 23 Florida likely will be without quarterback Luke Del Rio against Southeastern Conference rival and 15th-ranked Tennessee next week.Del Rio injured his left knee in a 32-0 victory against North Texas on Saturday night, a huge setback for the Gators and their championship hopes.It doesnt look great, so well do whatever, said coach Jim McElwain, adding that former Purdue starter Austin Appleby would be the next guy up. Somebody else will play and well get some guys ready and move forward and get ready to go play next week.The injury overshadowed a dominant performance by Floridas defense, which allowed a school-record 53 yards on 50 plays. The previous mark was 59 yards allowed against Western Carolina in 2006.Defensive lineman Joshua Wheeler hit Del Rio low at the end of incomplete pass late in the third quarter, drawing a personal-foul penalty. Trainers and coach Jim McElwain rushed to the field as Del Rio ripped off his helmet. Del Rio eventually got up and walked to the locker room without any assistance.But that was hardly the end of it for Florida (3-0). McElwain, who initially believed Wheelers hit was dirty, started yelling at the North Texas (1-2) sideline and had to be restrained by officials and then his players.I obviously took that low hit on Luke awful personal, McElwain said. Im sure his guy was just scrambling trying to make a play, but I really care about these players. I care about them in more ways than just football players, and when you see something like that, its my responsibility when their parents arent here to be their parents.Both teams responded to McElwains tirade by stepping onto the field and moving toward the hash marks.I care about these kids, McElwain said. Theyre minee.dddddddddddd I see something like that, it aint right.On the next play, Florida guard Martez Ivey was ejected for grabbing linebacker Fred Scott by the facemask during a run. Ivey will not be suspended for the first half of next weeks game against the Volunteers.Del Rio completed 14 of 25 passes for 186 yards, with an interception.THE TAKEAWAYNORTH TEXAS: Coach Seth Littrell, a former offensive assistant at Arizona, Indiana and North Carolina, is trying to change the culture at North Texas. Playing the Gators tough early -- the score was 19-0 through three quarters -- was a good start and something to build on in Littrells first season.FLORIDA: The tune-up games are over. While handling UMass, Kentucky and North Texas, Floridas defense was dominant and its offense remains a work in progress -- especially without Del Rio. It remains to be seen how the Gators young and inexperienced offensive line will fare against the meat of the schedule.POLL IMPLICATIONSFlorida should remain at or near No. 23 , making next weeks game at Tennessee the second in eight years in which both rivals were ranked. They also were both ranked in 2012. The Gators, who have won 11 in a row in the series, and Volunteers were both unranked the previous two meetings.UP NEXTNORTH TEXAS: Opens Conference USA play at Rice (0-3). The Mean Green are 2-4 all-time against the Owls.FLORIDA: Plays the Volunteers (3-0) for the 27th consecutive year. Florida is 20-6 during that stretch, including 11 straight wins that mark the longest streak since the programs first played in 1916.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
