This season again, Didier is a consultant for SPORT magazine during the Champions League. Chelsea’striker deliver his thoughts.

Four English clubs have reached the Champion’s League quarterfinals. Is it due to luck ?

Certainly not ! The Premier League is the best championship in Europe. Whether it’s the quality of the show, the audience’s infatuation or the number of spectators… The Premier League games are regularly exciting. The fan always gets a show worth the money he paid. The reasons of the success are sports related and also not. Thanks to the TV rights, the English football gets a huge amount of money (€ 1.4 Billion per year). This is why it’s so strong right now.


Can this hegemony last or keep on increasing ?

English clubs are used to reach the last four. You get more experience and it can be an important asset during the big games. Liverpool beat Inter Milan, Arsenal outplayed AC Milan… For me, England is set to be the greatest European nation in football.


The only negative aspect is that there are very few English players in the Premiership sides…

You can say whatever you want but the mix between very good local players and the best overseas players is matchless in Europe. And I expect an English final this season. I can tell you that England embraces the situation, it’s a huge pride and a shameless pleasure….
