Drogba injured, Is he able to play in World Cup?

Couple of minutes into an international friendly between Ivory Coast and Japan last Friday, a week before the opening kickoff of the 2010 World Cup and Didier Drogba went down.

“Drogba had just put the Ivorians ahead when he was injured in a 15th-minute clash with Japan central defender Tulio and left the field clutching his right arm," News of the UK’s Telegraph.

He had suffered a fractured ulna in his right forearm, which may possibly have put an ending to Drogba's World Cup dreams.

As one of the world's most productive strikers, this loss spelled adversity for his team and the Ivory Coast fans, which is in "the group of death" beside powerhouses Portugal and Brazil. The Ivory Coast, one of the most shows potential African teams, was counting on Drogba's contributions as a striker.

But the Chelsea front man underwent emergency surgery, and it looks as though he might be able to play in Dream able World Cup after all.

The question is raising here: if Drogba be able to play, and players have in the past had played with broken bones and arm casts, how efficient can he be?
