Didier is top Drog, says Seasider
lackpool defender Ian Evatt has described playing against Didier Drogba as one of the toughest tests of his career.[LNB] The pair faced each other in Chelsea's 4-0 Premier League mauling of the Seasiders at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, with the Ivory Coast international in typically menacing form.[LNB]The 31-year-old has had a brilliant start to the season, scoring five goals in his first five games and creating a host of chances for his team-mates.[LNB]Evatt admitted to being "tossed like a rag-doll" by the powerful 32-year-old during the game, and rates him firmly as one of the best strikers in the world.[LNB]"Drogba was just something totally different," Evatt told the Blackpool Gazette.[LNB]"I am used to playing against strong players but you don't realise just how strong this guy is until you face him.[LNB]"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.[LNB]"I was thinking, 'hell, 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."
