Drogba vs Rooney

[Helghast]

Rooney needs midfielders to help him... lots of his goals come from headers. Drogba doesnt always depend on midfield he can do his own skill

This season.. And I'm not sure what you're suggesting with Drogba... He brings the ball from the back on his own and scores? Any links to videos of Drogba hardly needing the midfield?

He doesnt bring the ball from the back but in the front Drogba can receive the ball and do some skills then score. I just think rooney needs the midfield more

Just one of the reasons why he's better than Drogba imo. He's a whole 10cm shorter than Drogba yet he can head the ball so much better. For his height, Drogba doesnt score nearly enough goals from headers.

Rooney has shown time and time again when Carrick is playing that he doesn't need the midfield.

Drogba is crowded a lot more than Rooney because he is taller. Once managers finally cottoned on to the fact that despite his height, it wouldn't be clever to leave Rooney with a headed chance - he stopped scoring headers. Fact is - They are different types of players. Drogba as a central striker anyday - Rooney as the backup to a striker. Imagine them as a team! Wow!

Fact is - they would be the best striking pair in the world (pair, not trio Cantera) in a 442 formation. So stop this childishness people - it r boring.

Ye great back pass from captain Fantastic

Drogba is powerful yet he rolls around the floor a crap load, he's attitude stinks.

With the RVP option

On the injury table

Rooney is a harder worker than Drogba - he gets back well to support the midfield, he runs and he tackles. Drogba is very lazy and goes to ground very easily - He is a top player but for all round ability you have to go for Wayne Rooney.

Drogba's a crying, diving moffie

ROFL!

That's daft. He's a bit older and plays more in the final third than he has done in recent times. Otherwise, he was always a tireless worker. No complaints about his antics though, but then again... what can you do - no one's perfect.
