MIA stands for Missing In Action and Didier Drogba has been missing game action and practice since taking himself off the 18-man gameday roster against Toronto FC. With the game against New England being played on turf, there was little chance to see Drogba play at Gillette Stadium.
But since missing the game against the Revolution, Drogba’s back problems seem to have gotten worse as the ex-Chelsea striker has not been in practice at all. The back issue is strange though knowing that Mauro Biello assured in his postgame press conference , after the 2-2 tie vs TFC, that his back issue was not deemed to be bad enough not to play.
