it's funny everytime i remember when Drogba said he is better than Henry! what arrogant he is, he is no where near Henry's level. Henry has the ability to score, set up and take on players while Drogba can only score.

>>he was signed in the way Diouf was after the 2002 WC

the Diouf (and Diao) deals were a forgone conclusion prior to the world cup.

it really cracks me everytime i remeber when Drogba said i am better than Henry! what a arrogant he is. He is no where near Henry's level. Henry has the ability now just to score but also to set up and to take players on while Drogba can only score.

Precisely, GS said no thanks!!

So whoever said he was world class or an established star before is wrong.

And oh yeah, I remember Souness on the telly trying to explain that George Weah's cousin thing - didn't he nearly score though!!!

Drogba was highly rated in France. Hence the 24m pound valuation

Not even Chelsea are stupid enough to buy a striker who'd only score a single goal.

Drogba is one of the leagues leading scorers.
Sheva has probably shot his bolt and Chelsea was seen coming.
Ballack is just too lazy.

We weren't disputing he wasn't rated in France, it was the fact that he wasn't a world star at this point.

But yes you are right, he got about 20 goals in his final season plus french player of the season.

...and he is the key player of a marvellous Ivory Coast team! One of my favourites in the WC, although unlucky to compete with Argentina and Holland.

Chelsea are already in one final. FIght for all the competitions. AND had a goalkeeper/defender crisis.Still they are second in the league and, hadn't it been that biased refereeing against the Spurs, it would be only 3 points away from Man U. Not bad and still a lot to come.
