Kalou ended a personal drought dating back to November when he finally netted his 50th for the club in Sunday's FA Cup third-round thrashing of Ipswich. It took the 25-year-old four and a half years and 210 appearances to reach the milestone, something he accepts is not good enough, especially with Chelsea crying out for a consistent goalscorer during their worst slump in the Premier League for almost 15 years. "To be honest with you, every game I play with Chelsea, I come out of it with regret because I feel like I should have scored another goal," the Ivory Coast international told his club's official magazine, Chelsea. "(My coach growing up) Jean-Marc Guillou always used to say, 'The most difficult thing is not knowing how to score but knowing how to create yourself a chance'. "I know that I can create chances for myself, I do it every game and now I just have to concentrate on putting more of them in the net. "So that's what my focus is now, because every game I create at least one chance for myself. "Sometimes, I come out of the games with regret because I feel like if I was taking all the chances I get, I would be top scorer. "Look at our home game against Fulham, I could have scored three in that game and that is what I want to concentrate on achieving." Kalou, who has slightly improved his ratio this season with eight goals in 24 games, added: "I score the more difficult goals than the ones I miss. "So I can't say it's because I can't do it. I know that's not true because I've scored hard chances. "I think that's what it takes to be a top player - to have one chance and to score. That's what I'm working on now." Chelsea go into Saturday's game at Blackburn looking to arrest a slide that has yielded just one win in their last nine league games. The miserable run, which has seen them blow a five-point lead to lie fifth in the table and nine points behind Manchester United having played a game more, co-incided with Kalou making his 200th appearance for the club. The former Feyenoord striker is keen to at least double that figure as well as well as vastly improve his goals-to-games ratio. "That's the kind of achievement you can be proud about 10 years later, it's always going to be there on record," he said. "That is what being a footballer is about for me." Kalou may not get a chance to add to his tally this weekend, with manager Carlo Ancelotti having to decide whether to recall Didier Drogba and Florent Malouda against Blackburn. Both were rested on Sunday, with Kalou, Daniel Sturridge and Nicolas Anelka leading the line. All of them found the net but that may not stop Ancelotti opting for experience in a game that could be watched by billionaire owner Roman Abramovich, according to reports. Any trip to Stamford Bridge would also doubtless entail a meeting with Ancelotti, who has continued to enjoy Abramovich's backing, despite overseeing the worst sequence of results since the Russian bought the club.
