“The biggest disadvantage of playing for Tottenham”.
“Drogba, who played for Chelsea, has remained negative about Tottenham since his retirement, even when praising current Tottenham captain Son Heung-min, including mocking him,” SpursWeb, a Tottenham fansite, reported on March 31.
Hotspur HQ reports that Drogba “recently appeared alongside Kaka and Alessandro Del Piero in an EA FC interview and praised Son in an ‘indirect way’”, suggesting that Drogba has a rather low opinion of Tottenham.
“Tottenham fans don’t look back on Drogba’s time at the club fondly,” Spurs Web said, ”He led Chelsea FC through their most successful period between 2004 and 2015. Chelsea finished higher than Tottenham in 10 of those 11 Premier League seasons.”
The Ivory Coast international is regarded as one of Chelsea’s all-time greats, with his powerful shot and excellent goal-scoring ability during his time at the helm of the Blues.
He led the Ivory Coast to three consecutive FIFA World Cups. In the 2006-2007 season, he led the Premier League in scoring with 20 goals. He was the first African player to do so.
Didier was interviewed by EA FC alongside AC Milan’s Kaka and Alessandro Del Piero to talk about Son Heung-min and Tottenham.
Drogba was joined by Kaka, the 2007 Ballon d’Or winner who won the Serie A and Champions League (UCL) titles with AC Milan.
Drogba put on a special performance after arriving in Korea.
Nexon Group President Park Jung-won, who organized the Icon Match, said, “Drogba asked for a personal trainer as soon as he arrived. At first, I didn’t think he needed it, 카지노사이트 but he played for 90 minutes. In a mini-game the day before the match, he broke through seven sheets of Styrofoam. I understood, ‘This is a professional, this is what he does to stay in shape,’” he said of Drogba.
“But Son is a great player and has become a great leader for the national team and Tottenham. His play is good to watch and I like the way he expresses himself on the pitch,” Drogba said.
However, he went on to say something unexpected: “His biggest drawback is playing for Tottenham.”
Son hasn’t left Tottenham since leaving Leverkusen in 2015 and pulling on a Spurs jersey. His career record is 165 goals and 89 assists in 416 games.
Aside from his debut season, he was always consistent. He had a bit of a rough first season, but since then, he has led Tottenham’s offense with double-digit league goals in eight consecutive seasons. In 2021-2022, he became the first Asian player to become the Premier League’s top scorer with 23 league goals.
His loyalty was immense.
He willingly signed a long-term contract in July 2021, even when the team was faltering. Spurs were in the midst of a dark period, having sacked Jose Mourinho just before the League Cup final and hired Nuno Santo as manager, but Son remained loyal to the club, refusing to be swayed by rumors of a move to another big club.
Since last season, Son has established himself as the clear leader of Tottenham, even taking over the captaincy. Under new manager Enzi Postecoglou, he scored 17 goals and provided 10 assists in the league, topping the team in both goals and assists. In England, there were reports midway through the season that he would soon sign a long-term contract.
However, nothing has been finalized. Instead, rumors of a move to FC Barcelona have surfaced.
