LONDON (AP) Andriy Shevchenko has scored only one goal since the season began -- a poor return for Chelsea's $56 million outlay.

He'll get another chance to make good the investment in Saturday's Premier League match against unbeaten Aston Villa because manager Jose Mourinho refuses to drop his star striker on to the bench despite his poor form since arriving from Italian club AC Milan.

"Until he scores a goal he is in my lineup," Mourinho said. "He has no chance to be dropped. Two, three, four, five games. It doesn't matter. He will play until he scores a goal."
