I'd rather we got Ginola out of retirement than sign Downing.

Drogba has scored 33 goals in 52 games for Cote D'Ivoire.
Of these, 3 came in a hat-trick against Burkina Faso. He has scored twice in a game against Tunisia, Benin, Egypt, Cameroon, Slovenia and Austria - so 15 of his 33 goals, leaving 17 goals as 'singles' in a game.
Doesn't look like many easy chances to fill your boots there.
So why does he not score many for Chelsea?
I'd say the general standard of goalkeeping in the EPL is higher than in the ACON qualifying stages.
Black men can't jump?

I was talking about the qualifiers of those continents but you knew that so.Tweedle wrote:Super Madrid wrote:Australia and the qualifiers is something entirely different different that i wouldn't compare at all to africa.
I'm always comparing Australia to Africa!
The similarities are ENDLESS.
Anyway i would say injuries has also played quite a part in him not always reaching top form. he has many times carried the Ivory Coast team and performed when it mattered. the exception is the missed penalty in the ACN final 3 years ago. also has he ever been a great goalscorer in club level football? for me is about more then that and he can get important goals so you should need somebody to take some of the burden of him with the goals and you have a good attack.

I think it's the board more than anything.

If the same player is being chased after going through 3 different head coaches, you can't be sure that it's the manger who wants him.
