Didier Drogba

[DJP]

Chelsea fan Andy Jacobs said on Talksport yesterday that Drogba was still the best centre forward of his type in the world "of that there is no doubt"?

Do you agree?

He's getting on a bit now, but i think i'd agree. For the type of player he is, i can't think of many better

absolutely .... still a cracking player and still should be a shoe in for the chelsea side if they want to win anything

He's alright - nee Tounkara though

[KM93]

Yes, most definitely.

Hes right but there are many more forwards I would take over Drogba now.

What exactly is his type? Who exactly are we comparing him against.

As far as tall, strong strikers go I'd say Ibrahimovic and Llorente are probably better than Drogba right now. In his peak he would wipe the floor with those two but injuries and age have started to take there toll on him.

Romelu Lukaku will become the new Drogba

Llorente is quality but I just dont get the hype with Ibrahimovic at all.

I'm not his biggest fan but right now he's a more effective player than Drogba is.

He's still scoring on average 1 in 2 in Serie A.
