GUUS Hiddink has told Didier Drogba to learn from Frank Lampard's dignified reaction to Chelsea's Champions League exit.

Drogba could be sanctioned by Uefa for confronting Norwegian referee Tom Henning Ovrebo and launching a foul-mouthed rant in front of TV cameras following the midweek 1-1 draw with Barcelona.

Chelsea were knocked out on the away-goals rule.

'Frank also felt this injustice but you could not change what happened at the end,' said Hiddink.

'Instead, calm down and congratulate the opponents. Didier can learn something. He overreacted.

Reactions

'In the heat of the game, I understand reactions. But it must slow down after seconds or minutes.

'You can fight and defend and have your emotions, but there must always be a level of dignity.

'Didier is an extrovert in showing his fire. He knows now also - otherwise he wouldn't have apologised - to use it when it should be used.'

Hiddink will give careful consideration whether to start Drogba in tonight's Premier League clash with Arsenal.

Drogba limped off in the 72nd minute with an ankle injury and Hiddink must decide if he is fit enough in body and mind to face the Gunners.

Hiddink explained: 'I have to think about that. Didier had some physical problems in his ankle. We'll see, physically and mentally, if he can play.

'I have to reflect very calmly before making a decision on this.'

Chelsea sit third in the Premier League with the FA Cup their last remaining chance of winning any silverware.

Hiddink has won plaudits for his work at Stamford Bridge since replacing Luiz Felipe Scolari and he wants to leave his mark on the trophy cabinet before he departs in the summer.

'I was already determined to win the FA Cup but hopefully we'll achieve our first aim set in February and that's to qualify for the Champions League again,' added Hiddink.

'When things are going well, you can't just be satisfied with that as a target at a big club so we extended our targets.

'In February, people would have raised their eyebrows if we said we'd get to a final.

'But, being there, we're very determined to win. I want to leave having won something.'
