Didier Drogba has revealed that the toughest opponent he has faced during his career, was former Liverpool captain and defender Jamie Carragher.
The 36 year-old only re-joined the Blues this summer after a two year spell away from Stamford Bridge, and has made 10 appearances in total, netting on three occasions. Known for his strength up front and his calmness in front of goal, the Ivorian has often found himself on the right side of defenders during his career, but has revealed that now Sky Sports pundit Carragher was his most difficult opponent.
The forward told the club’s website, “[The best I’ve played against?] It’s difficult but I would say Jamie Carragher was the most difficult one in terms of aggression, but he was always fair.”
Ivory Coast’s all-time top scorer has found the back of the net 295 times in total throughout his career.
