Just rewatching highlights from 15 years ago with Torres nicking the ball off of Vidic. Got me thinking, has there ever been a greater mismatch. Torres always had him in his pocket and Vidic got sent off numerous times. Hilarious.

I used to hated seeing carra against drogba tbh - but surely award goes to Rudy at Norwich? Suarez used to traumatise him when he was in goal for them…poor lad.

Carra vs Thierry Henry was simply not fair. You can also add Phillipe Senderos to one of Drogba's victims. Some mismatch that was. All Drogba had to do was make eye contact with Senderos and his head was gone.

Remember Ashley Cole having CR7s number when they played each other or bale destroying maicons aura as a world class rb…. Testament to quality of VVD and Salah in they consistently are able to do what they do best against majority of players they face.

Bruno Fernandes v groundsman
Old Trafford groundsman missed a section of grass causing Bruno to complete a reverse 2 1/ 2 somersault with a 1/ 2 twist while in the pike position.
Complete mismatch.

I always found Drogba incredibly overrated to be honest. Turned up in a few big games which is what he's remembered for.

Think you either misremembering or didn’t watch him enough Babbitty, not only did Drogba score goals and terrorize defences, he was the focal point of their attack and linked up their play. Incredible player in my opinion, and I used to hate it anytime he was up against Carragher as he would just dominate.

Drogba didn't have the best of starts at Chelsea from what I remember, but boy oh boy he soon turned that around.
Same as Seano, my strongest memories of him were just bullying Carra. And NOBODY did that.
Immense player for Chelsea, never in dispute.

Babbitty, Drogba’s scoring record in his first stint at Chelsea is one goal for every two games played. That’s pretty good IMO.

Drogba's record was less than one in two. 100 in 226 in the league and 157 in 341 all comps. For a number 9 at a big club, that's respectable but not jaw-dropping. I remember several times Chelsea either trying to replace him or bring in a "better" striker like Shevchenko in 2006, Anelka in 2008 and Torres in 2011. My point is there were a few times when Chelsea thought he could be upgraded upon. I also remember his legend status went up a notch in 2012 after his exploits in the Champions League and FA Cup. I remember him as a decent striker who was handful and turned up in big games but I certainly wouldn't put him in the world-class category.

Drogba was a brilliant striker in his prime and I would have loved him at Liverpool.
