A fan has produced a compelling Twitter thread outlining why Didier Drogba was a "better footballer" than Thierry Henry.

Legendary Ivorian Drogba, 41, enjoyed a prolific footballing career for both club and country before his retirement in 2018.

The former Ivory Coast captain, who is the country's all-time top scorer, won four Premier League titles and a Champions League with Chelsea.

Henry, 42, is widely regarded as one of the finest players to ever feature in the Premier League and became a cult figure in Arsenal's history.

But Twitter user Keyser Soze presented an argument for why former Chelsea star Drogba was far superior to Arsenal legend Henry.

The fan pointed to their goalscoring form in cup finals and also their respective performances in the Champions League.

Soze also slammed Henry's decision to leave Arsenal and complete a sensational move to Barcelona, only to "win a Champions League [and] to piggyback off [Samuel] Eto'o and [Lionel] Messi."
