I played against Drogba and Henry, but the “strong” Premier League icon was more difficult

Didier Drogba and Terry Henry represent an icon Premier League era. The era of long sleeves, the T90 ball that will fly in all kinds of trends, was, of course, some of the greatest competitions in English football ever.

It is correct that both Drogba and Henry appeared in such an era. Previous, often the man on the big occasion in Chelsea, sitting along with some great people in the history of the Stamford Bridge. Henry, at the same time, it can be said that the greatest player in the Premier League ever. The French, at his best, was ridiculous.

Many were full of praise for both. Former legendary director Arsene Wenger once He told reporters: “People like Thierry Henry (also) had exceptional qualities. They would run 100 meters in 11 seconds when everyone did it in 12.5 or 13. So if they manage it today at 12, they are still faster.

“They start with great potential and that is why that era of that era, they can still survive, because they have football intelligence. They had exceptional physical qualities at first.”

Wenger’s counterpart, Jose MourinhoI rarely hidden his admiration for Drogba, and at the same time. The form of the so -called “one special” in partnership with the attacker during his period in Chelsea.

“Undoubtedly, it’s one of the most important players in the history of this club. This is not a doubt. We are all, Chelsea supporters, we agree with that. We do not say the most important because it is not fair for other people who were at the same level or in the same generation.”

Although both, though, Manchester United The legend Nemanja Vidic named an alternative player as the most difficult game of his game ever.

Man Utd Vidic icon reveals that Rooney was the most difficult opponent

For all the great battles he fought with Drogba and Henry, It was often the most difficult Vidic games on the training field against Wayne Rooney. Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand asked to choose his strongest opponent between the above three and soon his old colleague called him.

“Wayne Rooney. It is clear, Didier Drogba is a lot of great challenges against him at the time of competition. But training every day with Wayne is strong and fast.”

You should not be assumed that the Serbian defender struggled against Rooney. The former England striker is one of the best Premier League ever – where he scored 208 goals and helped 103 others in an incredible profession.

Vidic will be grateful because he just had to back down from RONEY in training, rather than a competitive picnic at the club level. The other central stagnation did not have the same luck and soon it was placed on the sword.

These three were definitely the main men of their time when it came to the Premier League attackers. Although all the symbols themselves, VIDIC indicates that Rooney has left a sign from within both Manchester United and the rest of English football.
