London, Dec.2 (ANI): Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has claimed that Chelsea’s Didier Drogba “doesn’t do a lot”, but is still quite deadly when on the field of play.
New Zealand skipper Nelsen, facing Drogba for the fifth time since arriving in the Premier League, knows exactly what he means.
“I agree with Arsene Wenger. There are certain moments in games, which dictate how they are going to end up. They can pass you in a blink of an eye. Generally, if you pull off that save or score that goal, it dictates the result. Drogba proved that by scoring that well-taken goal in the first half. All of a sudden the game changed and Chelsea could sit back and counter- attack,” The Sun quotes Nelsen, as saying.
“He can be out of the game for so long, not really be part of it but all of a sudden, bang, he gets one touch and scores a goal. It’s job done,” he adds. (ANI)
