But hazard played in that same farmers league! undecided
He won their UNFP player of the year two straight years with Lille.

Also won their young player of the year.

When will Neymar do it with Lille and not getting carried by Mbappe like Messi carried him in Barcelona?

Chelsea have agreed a €23.4m fee with Fenerbahce to sign centre back, Attila Szalai.

The 23-year old Hungarian international will sign a six-year contract with Chelsea and receive an annual salary of €4m ahead of a January move.

Left footed player. Looks like they are prepping for Rudiger departure. Only concern is the boy is very big, not sure how mobile he is to play LCB in a back three but he looks quick enough on YouTube. Not sure how quick he is in short spaces though

I was waiting for you to fall in this trap. You've just been exposing yourself anyhow. Don't be like those who talk without any background knowledge. You've been talking rubbish about Salah flopping at Fiorentina for the last 3 pages and I've just been waiting for you to conclude, and as I expected, the only basis for your false assumption is that they didn't sign him, not what happened on the pitch.

Salah shone magnificently at Fiorentina. Fiorentina wanted him but Salah reneged on the agreement cos he saw a bigger opportunity at Roma. Fiorentina tried to even sue Salah believing they had an agreement in place.

Talk what you know and don't make assumptions on what you don't know

Salah didn't flop at Chelsea either, neither did Debruyne nor Lukaku. To flop, you have to actually play and be terrible. None of the above played any meaningful minutes.
Salah flopped at Fiorentina, he flopped at Chelsea, was average at Roma and now world class in Liverpool.

He flopped at Fiorentina, there was absolutely nothing he did for them to show he didn’t flop.

Again I’ll say, I’m not saying Salah isn’t good and a quality player, I’m only saying Klopp’s pattern of play played and still playing huge role in Salah’s form.

The initial question was Drogba vs Salah premier league...
Nobody's talking about their careers here because Drogba retired at 40 while Salah's still 29....

You keep on jumping into different arguments...
Drogba has more goals and trophies than Salah in England.

So what’s your point?

Throwing legendary Drogba under the bus for players like Henry, Salah and Ronaldo is very embarrassing.

No way Drogba is beneath them when it comes to Epl impact.

He is quick. He plays LB too and very attack minded. I like what I see in his YouTube compilations. Although YouTube is not the best place to scout players.

Chelsea should just sign Kounde and Rice.

That’s all.

I think we all should have an agreement on what categories to use when comparing players here.

G/A? Trophies? Individual awards? POTY won (if any)? Eye test? Something else?

People tend to use a category that suits them to try to win an argument.

If you argue Salah>Drogba because of G/A, I can argue Drogba>Salah because of trophies won (both England and overall). I can also argue that Drogba played alongside a goal scoring midfielder that is the penalty taker for the team while Salah is the penalty taker for his team.

Drogba vs Salah is an arguement that will go on for months nonstop without a clear winner.

Both are African greats. Let us be thankful to have watched both play in the EPL.

No problem with his pace over long distances. My question is whether he is agile enough over short distances to quickly close the gap between the wingback and defence. Big players tend to turn slowly over short distance

Salah is better than drogba in EPL. That's facts.

In just 169 games, he has 107 goals 41 assist

Drogba 254 games, 103 goals, 55 assist.

From their ratio you should know who is better.

Drogba won league wen Chelsea haven't won it, same can be accorded to salah
Drogba won cl league wen Chelsea needed it most, same can be accorded to salah

So I don't know the clutch or impact you and hensben want to brandish around here when even salah is more impactful than drogba

Another thing be say Henry pass drogba for England.

Trophies, career goals and assists, clutch performances, individual honors.

Drogba bodied Salah.

This is a fact.

True. I hope his body size won't hinder his acceleration.

Rudiger might just be leaving. I want to see Mbuyamba (spell check) in the first team too. I just have a feeling he will be a revelation for us.

Your mind nor judge you as you Dey bias for this comment. Btw, who is the penalty taker for liverpool? Drogba wasn’t a penalty taker for Chelsea, he has attacking midfielder that score like him all season and the team wasn’t built around him, he most time hustle for his goals.

Drogba is called Mr. Wembley for a reason.

Club football played in Wembley are semi finals and finals of Cup competitions. Drogba turns up in such matches, scoring 10 or more of such goals (not sure the actual numbers of goals off hand but around 10). Those are big moments that defines big players.

I am trying as much as possible not to take sides in this comparison. But the fan in me won't allow Drogba to be dragged here grin

They don’t understand the difference between a hit man for a team and a beneficiary. Hazard has being a hit man for two clubs. When will Neymar be a hit man for any club, he is always a cry baby and the club have to go sign a hit man in mbappe after all those money spent on him by psg. Hazard was a hit man for his country too during last World Cup that gave him second best player.
