Drogba averaged a goal/cup final and other then the CL final where he got sent off in, I cant think of a cup final he played poorly in.

In regard to games vs Barcelona in particular, he scored a goal against them in the first leg of the semi the season we won the CL, although other then that game I cant particularly remember his performance in any of the other Chelsea v Barca games

There is no need to prove Drogba's ability in big games, its well known and only a fool would question it.

But I do remember his games vs us distinctly, because obviously he was a big worry for me..and in many games, he did nothing simply because he didnt get the ball and when he did it was a long punt up in a 1 v 2.

Gerrard has made more mistakes in big games than any player I can remember

Totti and Di Natale

by dostoevsky Mon 27 Oct - 10:52:45

...is there some other Di Natale I've never heard of before? Because you're surely not talking about Toto.

by Rossoneri Ninja Mon 27 Oct - 11:27:11

Toto pretty poor in big matches outside Serie A ofc.

K.P comes to mind. Despite what casual fans might think, Sergio Ramos is exceptional when properly motivated.

by CarloGOAL Mon 27 Oct - 11:32:45

Ibra.
Milito in the past.

Ronaldo. Pirlo.

Isco
And main man Schurrle.

Higuain, hazard, ozil. Honourable mention (suarez).

Whilst it's hard to miss Boa playing like dross against mid-table opponents I do miss his routine wonder goals in big matches.

Though I'm sure people will point to last year and ignore the rest of his career. Sad

LOL at more people putting Drogba up there instead of Messi and Ronaldo. I hope it's because people are tired of talking about Messi and Ronaldo because they make Drogba's goal scoring record at Chelsea look like a joke.

Both Messi and Ronaldo are about to break the all time Champions League scoring records and this forum would claim they suck and are finished if they put up the kind of goal return Drogba did in his Chelsea career. If either of them put up Drogba type numbers they would be sold.

In fact there are numerous posts on here saying how Messi is finished or has regressed because he's not scoring at more than a goal per game clip, even though he's responsible for scoring or setting up almost 2 goals per game this year.

The CL being the biggest club stage and Messi/Ronaldo about to break the goal scoring record plus scoring in 2 Champions League finals each pretty much cement's there status.

In fact in one season Messi bagged half of what Drogba did in 8 seasons at Chelsea.

But then you take into account Messi's 21 goals against Real Madrid, Ronaldo's 14 against Barcelona etc etc etc.

The pace Ronaldo's on now and the absolute tear he's been on for the last 8 years.

There are only two answers to this question. Messi and Ronaldo.

Everyone else is child's play when it comes to big game performances.

Anyone nominating another player better never say a bad thing again about either one of these individuals.

Really the question should be outside of Messi and Ronaldo who do you think is a big game player? Everyone else is a mere afterthought which people in this generation IMO take for granted what the two of them are accomplishing.
