Evatt praises Drogba
Blackpool defender Ian Evatt has described playing against Chelsea striker Didier Drogba as one of the toughest tests of his career.
Drogba led Chelsea's attack during the 4-0 win over Blackpool last weekend. The Ivory Coast striker has started the season in superb form scoring give goals in Chelsea's first five games.
Drogba recently said that he feels in some of the best form of his career. He also revealed that Chelsea is looking to win every competition that the club is in this season.
There are many reasons why Drogba is being touted as the best striker in the world. If he maintains his good form then there's a strong chance that Chelsea will be successful this year.
On top form
Drogba looks stronger and fitter than ever despite now being 32-years-old. He is playing with the same energy and enthusiasm that he showed as a youngster at Le Mans.
Drogba's attitude seems to have improved from the striker that first joined Chelsea in 2004. He looks much happier in England and doesn't seem so selfish when in possession of the ball. His work ethic
is better and he stays focused for 90 minutes in every game.
Drogba is now more experienced, which is beneficial for him and the rest of the team. He has played 171 times for Chelsea scoring 89 goals in the process. He is showing a maturity with this experience
that is earning him admiration and respect.
Blackpool's Evatt said: "Drogba was just totally different.
I am used to playing against strong players but you don't realise just how strong this guy is until you face him.
At one stage in the second half, I put my whole bodyweight in front of him and he just tossed me away like I was a rag doll."
Chelsea success
If Chelsea is going to be successful this season then Drogba has to have a big year at the club. If he maintains a good goal scoring ratio then it will mean that the Chelsea
attack is staying positive and productive.
The club is fighting on four fronts this season. The biggest challenge for the club will be knowing when to rest the striker to keep him keen and fresh for bigger matches.
Drogba seems to have taken on more of a leadership role within the Chelsea side, which increases his responsibility. This has added another dimension to his game because
he has to take more of the burden during negative times. Teammates and youth players all look up to him to perform when Chelsea is in times of need.
Evatt added: "I was thinking, 'h**l, this guy's strong', but that's
what he is about. He is a clever player and he isn't one of the top three strikers in the world for no reason. I think on Sunday he showed me why."

Betting advice
Drogba is a fantastic bet to be top scorer at Chelsea and in the Premier League. The best approach is to use an odds comparison website for the best deal and act quickly
before he scores again and the odds shorten.
Chelsea is a good bet for all of the English domestic competitions. This is because the club looks the strongest side in the country. Be wary in terms of the Champions
League because the club hasn't always played well against the best teams across Europe.
Make the most of Drogba's strength against smaller and weaker teams. This means betting on him to score first, within 90 minutes and at any time. He is in great form so
there is potential and value across a variety of bets.
