Chapter 111: Warcraft vs. Maniac

Grant was almost brain congested by Degan's words, but as Deegan said, he is really a nobody in European football, and the first leg of the Champions League 1/4 finals will not be on the issue of Grant and Prandley's moves.

What people are looking forward to more is the showdown between the two major centre-forwards in today's football, the monster Drogba and the madman Degan.

If you want to choose the most domineering nickname on Shijie, "Warcraft" will definitely be one of the big favorites, as the sole owner of this nickname, Drogba, who is 1.89 meters tall and weighs more than 90 kilograms, has a domineering style of play, and a groundbreaking shooting score, all of which make this nickname very appropriate.

Even Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson said: "Didier Drogba, who is physically invincible, should be a little stronger than Toney and Ruud van Nistelrooy, his liliang and bounce are not like those on this planet." ”

During his time at Chelsea, Drogba took the 'aesthetic of violence' to the extreme, with the opposition penalty area becoming an area where he was wreaking havoc. Former Arsenal defender Sendros was devastated after he was violently tortured in the 2005 Community Shield, and the moment when another Arsenal defender, Traore, was knocked off by him was even more jaw-dropping.

Drogba's success is not due to his genius but more to his diligence, leaving his home country at the age of five for football, and moving 14 times, including the longest time he has lived in one place is five years, and that was the first five years of his life in CΓ΄te d'Ivoire. Because of homesickness, Drogba returned to life in Abidjan after three years in France, playing football in a parking lot every day, but later an economic crisis forced Drogba to follow his parents again.

After joining his first club, Le Vallois, Drogba was depressed, not only was he not appreciated by his coach, but he also tripped over a sprinkler and fractured his foot, followed by metatarsal, fibula and ankle injuries. It was this series of injuries that allowed him to sign his first professional contract until he was 21 years old. In 2002, Drogba was worth just Β£80,000.

But that was enough to catch the attention of Guingamp, who had just been promoted to the first division, and after joining the team, Drogba and Malouda formed a sharp forward line, scoring 17 goals to become an Ivory Coast international.

"At that time, I only knew how to play, and I didn't know what life was. Abbeville, Le Mans, Guingamp, Paris, Marseille, I played almost all of France. I started playing football when I was 6 years old and it wasn't until I was 20 that I really started thinking about whether I should become a professional footballer. Even when there was no hope of going on to higher education, I never seriously considered whether life was always carefree. Fortunately, the setbacks in the following years allowed Drogba to gradually mature from an ignorant teenager.

Because of his success in Guingamp, Drogba has also become a high-profile figure in French football, with Paris Saint-Germain, Marseille, Lyon and Monaco calling him out.

Jose Mourinho's scouts immediately introduced the African star to the still Porto coach, and the boss recognised his ability, but just as Porto were about to make the move, Marseille stepped in to poach Drogba.

Drogba's arrival was questioned in a long-established and prestigious club, but the striker responded to the criticism and he quickly became the darling of the coastal city.

The demanding Marseille fans saw him as their hero, and he became one of the most famous foreign stars in the French league.

After his move from Guingamp to Marseille, Drogba's goalscoring prowess continued unabated, with Didier Drogba scoring 18 goals in the 2003/2004 league season, 11 goals in the two major European cups, and Marseille reaching the 2003/2004 UEFA Cup final without being seen beforehand. He also won the title of Best Athlete in Ligue 1 in 2003/2004 and was voted French Footballer of the Year for the season.

In just one season, 19 league goals and 11 European goals were enough to catch the eye of billionaire Roman Abramovich.

In the 2004/2005 season, Chelsea owner and club manager Jose Mourinho poached Didier Drogba from Marseille to London, at a costly price of €32 million.

Drogba's high transfer fee is the second highest transfer price in the history of the English league, after Manchester United to Rooney. After joining the Blues, Didier Drogba and Judrent Gudjohnsen were the first choice for attacking pairings up front.

Didier Drogba's speed, liliang and skill work so well that a striker like this hasn't been seen at Stamford Bridge for a long time. His header ability has also been on display in the Premier League, which has allowed him to settle into the Premier League atmosphere very quickly. Didier Drogba was in fine form for Chelsea, scoring 10 goals in the league to secure the Premier League title for Chelsea that season.

The 2005/2006 season followed with Chelsea defending their Premier League title with Didier Drogba. Drogba has a strong physique, amazing explosiveness, excellent physical fitness, good running, and it is difficult for defenders to defend.

Didier Drogba has always been a nightmare for top defenders, as he is not known for his fancy moves with the ball, but with the speed of a cheetah, the strength of a lion's physique, which leaves defenders far behind, and is very practical.

Excellent sense of smell in front of the goal, decisive kick at the goal, so that no matter how much the goalkeeper can do. Coupled with his powerful impact and terrifying devastation, he was nicknamed "Warcraft".

Former Chelsea star Gudjohnsen met Drogba for the first time and the first thing he said was: "Damn, you're so strong!" ”

Shijie's top centre-back Rio Ferdinand said helplessly after the match against Drogba: "I bumped into him a few times, and when I tried my best, he didn't seem to feel anything. ”

Newcastle boss Jose Robson, Mourinho's mentor, said: "He's an absolute man who can change the outcome of a game. Against us, he had only two chances and scored two goals. ”

People don't overstate the praise for Drogba, because he is really good, and again, Degan is really similar to Drogba in all aspects.

They are equally tall, equally fast, have big shots, have a clear air advantage, and are equally good at free-kick skills, and if there is any difference between the two, Drogba has a better defense and Degan's Jishu is a cut above them.

The first face-to-face contest between the two people naturally attracted the attention of countless people, and the previous duel between Deegan and Camuro and Messi was different, this time the meeting between Warcraft and the madman was really a hard-fought contest.

Although there was a small episode of Grant before the game, but the two people who faced each other showed sympathy, Degan said when asked about Durroba: "That's a guy who can't help but pay attention, I've watched his game video, he's really great, I even have the idea when watching him play, 'Weishenme doesn't form a double arrow with him', of course, it's hard to achieve, I think people would prefer to see us on the field duel rather than cooperate!" ”

Drogba also expressed his appreciation for Degan: "I know Degan, that guy is a goal maniac, when he is on the field, he is more crazy than me, and the desire to score goals is stronger, there is no doubt that in this game, our biggest trouble is from Degan, I think this is also the consensus reached by many teams that have played against Fiorentina, if you want to win the game, you must take care of Degan first!" ”

Before the game, the two of them looked like they were late to each other, but after the game started, the situation was completely different, one was a demonic beast breathing flames, and the other was a madman with a murder knife in his hand, and the first collision between these two people on the court was sparks.

At that time, Degan carried the ball forward, and Drogba, who was back to the defense, collided directly from the side, if it was someone else, maybe there would be no way to shake Degan, but this monster is different, in terms of strength, he is no worse than the muscular maniac Degan.

In an instant, the two of them rolled into a ball, and the referee's whistle sounded at the first time, and he hurriedly ran to the place of the incident, he was also worried about whether the two savages would hurt the innocent when they faced off.

Deegan rolled over and was on top of Drogba, two equally tall guys, with their heads on top of each other, glaring angrily, seeing that they would fight in the next second.

"What's the matter? Can't you stand it? Sissy! ”

", you African animal, that's all you can do!"

"That's all there is to it, it's enough to kill you!"

"Really? Then give it a try! ”

"As you wish!"

The referee hurriedly separated the two people, but between the two fierce men, the poor referee looked obviously lacking in momentum, but he still insisted and said: "Be quiet, this is a football game, not your gladiatorial arena, you better be honest, otherwise, I don't mind letting you all go to the locker room to calm down!" ”

Deegan sneered: "Of course, I'm just getting close to him!" ”

Drogba immediately shot back: "Really? Then I'm very honored, boy, take care of yourself, and be careful to pee your pants when the game is over! ”

"Aren't you wrapped in a large diaper? African rookie! No! It's the African elephant ass! ”

The referee had a headache, and he had a hunch that this game, standing in his position, would definitely not be good.
