A Blunt Instrument, But a Devastating One

By Atm96, 15-04-2021

I decided to take the plunge and reconfigure my team around the big Ivorian and what a decision that has proven to be. I have seen other reviews describe him as "not a fun player", which I agree with in terms of his ability to skill or slalom through an entire defence, but I also find dominating every game I play quite fun and that is exactly what Drogba allows you to do. Akin to Alexander's Companion Cavalry at Chaeronea, this man will get in behind the opposition defence with ease before consummately dispatching the vast majority of one-on-one opportunities. I use him with an Engine chemstyle and have had no issues with his dribbling or agility whatsoever, however I will concede that if you do prefer nimble, agile forwards this man is not for you. His raw power, strength and pace however completely mitigates this in my opinion, and I am yet to find an opponent able to contain him due to the dynamism of his scoring prowess. A threat from corners, inside or outside the box and a phenomenal hold-up player to utilise hammer and anvil tactics with pacey wide men, Drogba is a complete striker and a goalscoring machine. Used properly, he will propel you up the weekend league and rivals rankings. One of, if not the best striker I have used this year and miles ahead of the likes of TOTY Lewa, Prime Cantona and many other forwards of a similar mould. If you are contemplating completing his SBC, I think it is tremendous value and you will not regret it. It hurts me to write this as a United fan but he really is phenomenal. Game changer.

Drogba's pace is comparable to Ron (no one is as quick as mbappe). Shot is equal with Lewan as the best I have used but the physical is unreal. By far the ...

Some say that he feels like a truck, I agree but he is more like a Tesla Semi Truck. Biggest advantage of this card is definitely its finishing ability and shot power. This fact combined with his special Black Magic ability of scoring spectacular goal...
