Kenwyne Jones vs Fulham

T&T captain Kenwyne Jones has been described by his Cardiff City teammate Adam Le Fondre as the Didier Drogba of the English Championship.

Jones, currently with ten goals for the season, has been a force for Cardiff and came in for praise from Le Fondre after the player netted his first goal for the club against Watford last month.

‘The gaffer (Russell Slade) wanted more of a physical presence in attack and nobody provides that better than Kenwyne. There isn’t a centre-half in Championship football who can dominate him,’ Le Fondre said.

‘There is not a better player in our league who is better at holding the ball up and he is brilliant in the air. Kenwyne did a tremendous job against Watford and I am buzzing to play alongside him because I know he is going to get up and create chances for me.

‘For me he is the Didier Drogba of Championship football.’
