We analyze the recent problems for Montreal and New York City and address the unfortunate comments made by Italy manager Antonio Conte.
Didier Drogba has been a combination of David Beckham and Frank Lampard this season. He's off the field the majority of the time—for injuries or otherwise, just like Lampard—but when he plays, he's a dominating beast who can singlehandedly win games for the Montreal Impact. While he will never do what Beckham did for this league, he won't get booed by his own fans either. Drogba, as he was for Chelsea over the last ten years or so, is an interesting commodity for the Impact, although in a very different way than he was back in England.
