Didier Drogba


DYC.

Drogba as a target man is still actually a decent player. If we're chasing a game and Costa isn't working then bringing on Lukaku, who is a very similar player who is surprisingly poor in the air, isn't going to change the way we attack the game especially.

It's why I liked the idea of us getting Mandzukic because tactically, he actually alters what we do.

If we're playing that match against West Ham at home last season who do you want to bring on? Lukaku or Drogba? Who do you want to pump crosses into because there's no space behind their defences to run into (Lukaku's main strength)? Who do you want a ball to fall to be it on the right, left or even a headed chance?

As for the mentoring of Lukaku/right-click-TUTOR idea, we have about 60 players at this club, as well as world-class coaches, PR men etc. Why does it have to be Drogba who tells Lukaku to keep his mouth shut, don't ask for transfers away from massive clubs and focus on playing football?

You are right in most of what you said, but I still would take Drogba as just as striker's coach.He will really help the entire squad, he is mentally the strongest striker we ever had and when big games will come I'd rather listen to DD than to some other coach (beside of Mourinho).His presence at cobham day by day will hugely help José to get the team motivated all the time.

After we sold Ba we need a Plan B. Costa will be great for us - the issue is Lukaku is ineffective at times (he's still very raw) and Torres is as useful as a split condom. We need someone to pump balls up to, and Didi can still do a job. After losing Ash and Frank we need more "generals" in this team. Okay, we're getting Costa who is a ratty little shit and will really wind up the opposition, and Cesc is ridiculously experienced at every possible level, but we need real leaders and with Cech also likely on his way out, it's going to leave us with just JT and Ivanovic as the generals in that team.

:lol:

That post deserves a LIKE!

Don't forget, both David Luiz and Juan Mata both credited Drogba for teaching them his free kick technique. He would be an amazing coach. Nobody found space like Didier. That is Torres's problem, he couldn't get his positioning right if you marked it with a big red X. He'll only run into the right position, waving his arms about like a fucking spastic once the ball has already been shot.

Can't help but be chuffed with it. (if true)

It's a real head vs heart thing. Head says NOOOOOOO he had the perfect send off.

Heart says......well let's be honest the heart is doing a rendition of 'didier drogba lalalalalala'

Hope he can steer Romelu straight, and if that is the case then this could be invaluable!
