also one of the top Prem players. the disrespect shown to him proves the anti West African bias by UK football pundits . Look and son captain of spurs for example of a double standard , hes 1/10th the player Drogba is and won ZERO trophies yet trying to appeal to the nationalist and lucrative south korean market he gets hyped to the moon plus multi part amazon documentaries.. Again Didier Drogba is one of the greatest players in prem history but Massively disrespected (like most big west African starts in the prem) by UK press.

Arsenal fans bang on about Henry. You were the team who had the true best.

When you have cech in goal post , terry in defence, lampard in midfield and drogba upfront.. no need to worry, really missed the old blue

His most underrated skill was well...his skill and technique on the ball. But English commentators and pundits back then had the whole world believing he was all about brute force. Prime examole is when he was denied player of the year in 2010 when he was on 29 EPL goals with1or no pens and about 16 assists (record is 20 I believe by Henry) while Rooney had 26 EPL goals with a number of pens and still won it ahead of DD who won the league with Chelsea. Don't forget he missed over a month in AFCON. Giggs won it the year before with 2 goals mark you!

Drogba was sensational that year. But the way Rooney carried that poor United team meant that it had to be given to him. I've never seen a player carry a mediocre team to a title charge like that, ever. But you are absolutely right about Drogba being labelled a brute when there was so much more to his game than that. He is the template and textbook that all forwards that should look at when learning how to play with back to goal, compete with defenders, and also remain a threat in front of goal. So many target men over the years haven't been able to do what Drogba did.

Drogba is the unstoppable striker who ever lived. His physical strenght destroy Premier league's elite defenders. Even Big teams cant control him (2009 Barça especially). Drogba is that Man who always frightened you in big matches.

I was a kid, probably 9-10 when Drogba was at the top of his game. The way some people go on about him now acting like he was no good annoys me. Literally no one thought this back then. No one cared about stats at all. It was just accepted that he was a world class player, regardless of not scoring 30 a season. Didn’t matter. He could dominate an entire back 4 on his own. Was also quite a gifted player with the ball, definitely not the limited target man lamppost he’s often painted as being. Chelsea would dominate games through Drogba being such a complete forward, either running the channels and delivering the key balls, having guys run off him for flick ons, popping it over the defence for him to steamroll through. Could cross for him, he was a capable crosser for midfield runners or other forwards, could shoot from range. He was an unreal player. I will passionately defend Drogba whenever there’s an opportunity because to me he is by FAR the most disrespected footballer on social media these days.

Stats do matter though, especially when you’re a striker. Of course he’s a quality player but I think the ‘disrespect’ you see online is because people started to put him on the level of the likes of Henry which I think is not right. He’s a quality player but more on the level of a Berbatov. You can’t be heralded as one of the greatest strikers of the prem if you only have one season of over 20 goals within your 8 seasons there.

@@MR12AMAZING stats can be relevant but the impact a player has on a match across 90 minutes will always be the most important thing, regardless of if they score or if they’re ‘a striker’. Often you can only gauge this by watching the match, not retrieving the stats or looking at ones of the rating apps. It’s also worth pointing out that if scoring 20+ goals in a league season is key to being great, then we’d also have to rule out forwards like Rooney, Van Persie, Tevez, Owen, Fowler, Torres. All of those only had 2 seasons of scoring 20 or more in England. Actually Owen never had any (Ballon D’Or winner Owen I’ll add). Would you say all of these players can’t be regarded as great? I think it’s a flawed and arbitrary marker to determine the quality of players by.

Even when he was not playing great matches u knew he would score from half chance and also always scored in big matches ..much love legend

Too many people bang on about Henry. This man was the man who was feared. Especially when it came to the big stage. As a United fan, when I saw his name on the teamsheet it filled me with worry. He had everything top strikers had and more. The strength was absolutely unreal.

When a monster has techniques! You get Drogba!

He is the reason Lampard is Chelsea's top scorer

As a Gooner, I hate to say it but he was an incredible all round player and a World Class finisher....

The most complete African striker EVER .and the best player to score with his back to the goal. He was a genius who could score goals in all possible ways . Besides , he is the only player to stop a war in his country . His likes do make us Africans feel prouder of our Africanity .

Dorgba was most complete striker during his prime..

This man made me love football

He is like a more forward focused version of Kane, that played in a MUUUUUUUUUCH tougher era of the game. He was everything, EVERYTHING you wanted in striker, and he essentially was THE striker that defined the head of the 4-3-3 that every manager till today tries to get. He was the first of the modern striker.

I really loved this guy even that I am an Arsenal Fan. He always scored agaings us and pissed me off but what a player

Legend, My African Hero

One of my favorite strikers....Didier was really genius indeed ❤❤❤❤....

What a striker, no one can be like him

A striker that can be motm without scoring, Drogba was one of a kind

Probably the most unselfish player we've ever had

blue beast, arsenal nightmare, chelsea legend, didier Drogba!!!!!!

It's refreshing and humbling to have watched almost all the goals as he did his magic..

Prime Drogba soo Handsome ❤❤

Drogba is Nightmare to Arsenal. he is great finisher.

Drogba i miss this guy a lot .

Sheer power absolutely Beast at CF, Drogba is one of the best strikers of all time 😊

He was a hero for the blues

My personal favourite striker ... He could bring the heat

He was arguably the best player on a couple Fifa video games from the early 2010s

Some of the best defenders that have graced the Premier League such as Vidic, Ferdinand, Carragher have confessed he was that one striker they dreaded playing against...

Drogba is top 20 all time no question.

Grade Didier ❤️

I miss beast number 9s in late 90s and 2000s era .. Sheschenko, Crispo, Raul, Batistuta, Drogba, Eto'o, R9 .. etc.

Two forvet legend prime drogba and eto.

Africa's best ever striker , very skilled, good finisher, very very flexible at the goal ,turning around fully, good in the air and on the ground, the first african I saw scoring against Brazil in a competitive match in world Cup, I guess in the whole world he is the best ever to wear Jersey number 11 though playing as number 9. I admit this today even if I didn't want him because he played for Chelsea and he used to punish man utd alot , which was My team.

Legend

A mentally and physically strong Drogba was the heartbeat of defenders in his heydays. When he sighted the goalposts he behaved like a ferocious eagle or a hungry lion seeing a prey😮

Drogba and Lampard, what a duo 🔥🔥🔥🔥

And the old commentators where so good they made the game and goals so much better with how much compassionate they are

DROGBA IS THE KING...THE GOAT.

Dude gave us joy ..real joy

hes so quick between his first amd second touch

Simply the Legend!

One of the best to ever receive a ball with their back to a defender. Incredible on the half & full turns along with great awareness of his teammates. Giroud was also very similar. Go blues.

When playing WE9, he is the striker that I had to sign right away in ML 😂

He turns up in especially big games, what a footballing legend 👏 🙌 👌 👍 😄 💙 👏 🙌

That goal vs Barcelona wearing the Dutch kit was insane. Barca vs Chelsea games were war, you'd barely get a chance to score

Skill Power Precision Personality Big game performer. What a striker he was! Didier drogba La la la laaaaaa

Very few people who don't support Chelsea, Ivory Coast, Galatasaray etc will actually realise how good he was technically. He was an outstanding footballer, even when he didn't score he contributed hugely to wins. He's been pigeon-holed as a target man due to his size, especially by today's social media kids who were too young to watch him and just review his stats, but he was much, much more than that.
