Drogba is the best
Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard claims there is no hotter striker in Europe at the moment than Blues striker Didier Drogba.
Drogba grabbed his ninth goal of the season on Wednesday night to condemn Barcelona to their first European defeat in 19 months.
The Ivory Coast international fired a hat-trick on his previous Champions League outing, away to Levski Sofia, and scored one of the Premiership's best goals of the season with a ferocious volley against Liverpool last month.
Lampard, 28, said: "He's a fantastic striker anyway but at the moment he's in one of those really hot spells.
"If he's not the best striker in Europe, I don't know where there's a better one.
"His all-round game is fantastic. He's scoring spectacular goals. That's Didi and it's great to have a striker playing like that."
