He is arguably the best striker in the world right now but some idiots still say he is now world class!!! The only reason is because he is a "Black man".... Wayne Rooney does not even compare, yet you muppets think is superman...Whats wrong with you people...

As a football fan who doesnt support chelsea or man u , i think people slag drogba off either because he looks a bit ungainly, or basically coz they are jealous. Yes hes doesnt move like a traditional kinda stiker but he is a class player. Anyone slaggin him coz he is black should just grow up. He is a footballer not a terrorist. Personally i dont think he is a good all round as rooney is ( im not a man u fan ) rooney has the potentional to be the best player the country has ever seen but for me the best player in the world at the moment is Mr vavavoom , Thierry henry, sorry chelsea fans but nobody has the composure, skill, vision and just all round genius of thierry.

I love Drogba! He's in the best form I've seen him in since he came to Chelsea, he's scoring goals nearly every game.
I don't think it's because he is a black man, I think it's because he is playing for Chelsea, a team that is "the best in Europe" (and those aren't my words, they are Martin O'Neill's, who knows what he is talking about). People are jealous. Also, because Drogba does interfere, and carry-on with referees when they make a decision against Chelsea; I do, but he sometimes goes to a point where he is borderline Yellow card.
Drogba is world-class, especially the form he is in right now, anyone in the Premiership would say so, and I'm not just saying that because I support Chelsea. People are just jealous that he is doing really well.
I think we all big up Rooney because he is one of the best things that has happened to England in present years; a lot of people compare him to Gazza, but I hope he doesn't end up like Gazza is now. But, I think Aaron Lennon should be getting some love from the press, because he's going to be great. I hope he doesn't come to Chelsea though, because he might end up like Shaun Wright-Phillips, who should have stayed at Manchester City.
OK, I'm going to shut up now, because I've gone completely off the point.
PS: I've just read some other answers, and remembered that he does dive a lot, and it pisses me off, because I don't want Chelsea, my beloved team, to be getting penalties, and scoring goals, that way. But, I think he has toned it down a bit. Barcelona are the worst divers on the planet, oh, and the Argies.

I am not black and I am not white either.I am 'fair lady' who love soccer very much.I am very fond of Drogba because he is a great player.I fall in love with Rooney's skill.He's a young impact striker and I could say he is the most priceless asset of the English soccer today and the next decade.
Therefore to me,both are outstanding players but both are not from the team I am supporting,but I have the feeling it's either Man U or Chelsea will be this year champ.
Cheer up people!!! Soccer is a great game and it is love worldwide.Black,white or coloured,we all love the game,so please say no to racism.
I love you all the EPL supporters!!!!

I think Drogba is the one. He's simply wow. And plus he has made a very significant impact on African soccer.
I think he is hated simply because he is good and not afraid to show that he is.
As for diving, which profession striker has never taken a dive every once in a while. Strikers are there to score goals come what may and in any way possible. The defenders are the ones to step up their game and make it impossible for strikers to fool refs. I don't think strikers dive, they simply exploit weaknesses exposed by careless defending. And I think anyone who saw the goal he scored against Arsenal at the begining of last season will agree that he just doesn't fall at the slightest touch.
Drogba's the men

I only dislike him because he scored a hat trick against my team yesterday. Give it a couple of days, and I will have recognised that that is what a quality striker does, and will have moved on. Watford will get points at Portsmouth (hopefully) and all will be well.
As for people hating him because he is black? Get real. Look at the white players who also get abused: Robben, Beckham, Keane, Ronaldo, and yes, Rooney himself. Look at some of the most popular players in the league; Henri, Saha, Lennon, King. These lads are also 'black men.'
Class is class, doesn't matter what skin colour it's wrapped up in.

I love Drogba as he scored a hat trick last night and he was my star player (double points) on my fantasy football team last night. And I had just picked him up the day before by dumping Shevshenko.
As for Rooney, one shouldn't rubbish this man. He's not scored often this season but he will. At least I hope he will: he's another one of my strikers along with Henry and Doyle (Doyle because I ran out of money).
Goodness, Saddam would be on my team if he were scoring goals.

People hate Drogba for two reasons,
a) he plays for Chelsea
b) he dives a lot to get penalties.
I on the other hand have him in my fantasy football team this year so I am happy for him to score goals. Those 3 he scored today will earn me loads of points.

The reason I hate Didier Drogba (and Cashley Cole) is pure and simply. They are Chelsea players. My favourite player (as I support Arsenal) is Thierry Henry (also, I think you'll find a black man). Therefore, I am not a racist, but I am an Arsenalist.

you bringing a players colour into it makes me wonder what kind of a childish muppet you are as every club has black players so who ever people support they must be supporting black players you have to be a romans team supporter ...... its simple the reasom people dislike drogba is because he is highly anoying and not really that good, hes a long long long way of being the best striker in the world and equally as far of being the best in the prem.... and thats that

Its ridiculous to assume that if people don't like Drogba, its because he is black- look at how many people love Henry, irrespective of whether they support Arsenal or not, or Ronaldinho at Barca.
I think that people dislike Drogba because (a) he is a dirty filthy cheat; (b) he plays for a team of dirty filthy cheats.
The guy is big, strong, hard as nails - and yet all someone has to do is breathe within 50 yards of him and he falls over, crying 'foul' - thats why people hate him, nothing to do with his colour.
