Drogba: I’m better than Eto’o and I aim to prove it

DIDIER DROGBA insists he is a better player than Samuel Eto’o and aims to prove it by leading Ivory Coast to African Nations Cup success today.

The Elephants meet tournament hosts Egypt in Cairo, with Drogba hoping to build on his match-winning semi-final strike against Nigeria.

Despite his impressive tournament, the Chelsea striker is riled by suggestions that he is inferior to Barcelona’s Eto’o, the current African Player of the Year, who leads the goalscoring charts with five.
