If we are talking team setup seeing as football is a team sport, Drogba is the ultimate team player, he is a more physical pure striker who creates havoc by his size and strength and deceptive speed and he defends
Henry has more midfield qualities to his game and skill, also is deadly in front.
In the air Drogba is miles ahead, he scores with his head and even more he defends with his head and we all know that is Henry's weakness.
Real football analysts will tell you Drogba is by far a better striker, they will also tell you he is underrated because he's more of a natural striker on a normal team while Henry like most of you already said want to do it all with a little help from the team, when he left Arsenal and he wasn't the main guy at Barca; we all saw how that worked out not gettin all the ball.
Henry can't play up front on his own and score without the midfield coming to him. While Drogba up front alone can win you games, be threatening and deadly for 90+ minute.
Last point I would like to make, Didier Drogba fits better with most teams if not all because of his natural ability to finish when he gets chances, when the chips are down he always comes through for his team in games that goal scoring are the only difference between a championship winner and just another good striker. He has more passion for the game and puts team before personal accomplishments and with that all attributes he accomplished a lot more than Henry at any club
Yes Henry is flashy but is he better? my personal opinion is NO, you can disagree but facts are facts
An ultimate forward will never be refered to as "underrated" by anyone, analyst or amateur.
Lol@ Dogbreath scoring a goal in CL final and now suddenly his better that Henry. Ok.
Also agree with this...
