Born: 11/3/1978 Nationality: Ivorian Club: Chelsea Didier Drogba is one of the greatest strikers playing football today. There are a collective few of strikers which can have great strength, heading ability and technical ability that Drogba has.

Drogba, although in his 30’s now, is still a lot to handle,…

As a fan of watching pure slick football, I admire Iniesta so much, and watching him play is as fascnicating as watching the likes of Messi and Ronaldo play. Iniesta’s vision, close ball control, dribbling ability and passing is for all to see and no…
Born: 5/2/1985 Nationality: Portuguese Club: Real Madrid There is no doubt that when Ronaldo hangs up his boots, he will be regarded as one of the best players of all time, and there is still plenty of time left in this lads career. At the age of 26, he has many years left in him and his fitness and dedication to the sport cannot be faulted, so there is more time for Ronaldo to achieve even more in this sport.
