Thread: Is there a worse human being in football then Drogba?

So what about the stonewall penalty that should of been given at the Camp Nou? And Ballacks red card? And numerous other bookings that weren't given? This is exactly one of the reasons why I hate Chelsea, and their fans! They were lucky to even be in with a shout in the second leg, thanks to some anti-football play and huge luck with decisions in the first leg. Now I didn't see the second leg, but it sounds as though they just parked the bus again. Yes they had penalty claims turned down, but so did we against Donetsk in the second leg at the Lane, but did we react like that? No!

Chelsea aren't good enough to beat Barca over two legs, they never were, and as usual had a huge amount of luck go their way but also had some luck go against them. The second that happens they are looking at someone to blame, rather than looking at themselves. Theres no conspiracy to this at all, it's just Chelsea being Chelsea, throwing the toys ouf of the pram when things don't go their way. It's disgusting to watch, and whats even more annoying is knowing that they will be given a slap on the wrist where as most other clubs would be facing severe disciplinary action. One rule for some another for the rest?

Sorry Ekad. You are entitled to your opinion of course, but Drogba is a public figure who is looked up to. I am not trying to say kids should look up to him, they just do & he should be more aware of that fact. It is the same for any player in the Premiership & the majority of them know this. Kids are always wanting to be & copying footballers & I would encourage them to do so but if I saw my kid replicating Drogba's behaviour I would not be impressed. The issue of money is extremely important also. Footballers are payed huge amounts for so much more than what they do on the pitch & it is a little bit obscene that somebody who is being paid that sort of money by people who expect him to set a certain standard cannot stop & think about the image he is representing toward his employers. Many people at Chelsea have invested a lot in Drogba & he has benefitted greatly from it & he should have a bit more respect.

Nobody is overreacting, what he did was disgraceful & if it were a Spurs player I don't think I would want to see them adorn our shirt ever again. The subject has nothing to do with passion & everything to do with ego. If it had been a Spurs player I would have been screaming at him why he could not score himself, why did he not play better & why he reacted like such a baby to being substituted. You show passion on the pitch & with what you do with a football but when that final whistle blows you should be able to put it to one side, shake your opponents hand & move on. As an adult, and especially one in the public eye, you should be able to control your emotions a little better. By all means if you need to let it out, let it out, but do it in private. Passion does not mean that you have to lose control of your senses & Drogba seemed more than capable of reining it in when things weren't going his way. Where was his so called passion for Chelsea 6 months ago? Drogba has a problem with authority & believes himself to be bigger than the club. He was a big part of why Scolari eventually got the sack & his attitude stinks. I only want people who care about the team & the club at Tottenham, Drogba only cares about himself.

He is supposed to be one of the best strikers in the world & yet he missed a sitter that would have put his club 2 goals up & into the final for certain. His reaction to that was initially to fake a head injury - hardly the actions of a passionate man.

It has nothing to do with it being Chelsea. I applaud John Terry's actions of going into the Barca dressing room & shaking them all by the hand & certain other Chelsea players who chose to swallow their pride & obvious hurt in favour of sportsmanship & honour.

Ballack, Drogba & now Bosingwa on the other hand only show contempt. Their egos are bigger than the club & that sort of attitude is not welcome. Bosingwa's comment today where he is trying to suggest UEFA set-up the result is nonsense. Professionals . . . no, sorry, adults should learn how to accept responsibility for their failings.

I have no clue where this concept that having passion should mean that thought, decency, rationality & respect should go out the window.

Finally, as far as the Boban incident goes, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING!!!! I am not going to talk about it anymore suffice to say that neither Boban nor Drogba were showing 'Passion'. Boban represented honour & sacrifice & thought for others whereas Drogba represented selfishness, aggression & thought for nobody but himself.

I don't know what he hoped to achieve shouting and swearing at the ref like that?? Did he think the ref was gonna say "Ok, take a couple of penalties now, Barca - stop celebrating and wait a minute" ffs it was never gonna achieve anything except some sort of punishment for Drogba.
