Puyol,Vidic and Ferdinand have this in common

Didier Drogba, one of the greatest centre forwards of the 21st century, has said they’re the toughest centrebacks he ever played against.

That’s interesting.

I WANTED TO KNOW THAT

You may have seen this on the internet already.

But I’m noting it here in case you didn’t

Nejmanda Vidic was an intimidating gladiator.

Except when Fernando Torres was taking him apart and getting him sent off.

Barcelona legend Carles Puyol was another born winner.

A TRULY GREAT FOOTBALLER.

Rio Ferdinand was a steal at £30m and played for Man United from 2002 to 2014.

Heskey injured Rio in Engerland’s first training session in South Africa.

I realised immediately that was very bad news.
