🚨🎙️ Didier drogba on Liam Delap performance for Chelsea;
Listen, We have to stop this thing in football where we see a young man run fast, or hold the ball up for five seconds, and we say, 'Okay, get him to Stamford Bridge.'
Tonight, I saw a player who is still playing for Ipswich in his head. He is playing like a man who thinks he has ninety minutes to make a mistake. At this level, you have half a second. One touch too many? Gone. A fraction late on the press? Gone.
I see him grappling with defenders, trying to use his strength. But in the big leagues, everyone is strong. You need more than a big frame. You need the brain. You need to know where the space is before the space even exists.
Right now, Liam is falling. He looks like a tourist in that Chelsea attack.
You want to be a Chelsea striker? You have to be a killer. You have to be cold. Right now, Liam is too warm. He is too comfortable being 'involved.' Instead of being the reason the other team’s center-back can’t sleep tonight.
Until he learns that, he is an Ipswich player wearing a blue shirt that is simply too heavy for him."
