Based on recent performances, I'd say it's between David Villa and Drogba. Drogba got the Golden Boot last season and scored 5 goals in the World Cup, so he's a better striker than Rooney. I'm a Gooner, so that's an unbiased opinion.

Any answer that doesnt say Messi is wrong. Messi is on another level right now, Drogba is about on par with Cristiano Ronaldo. Will be remembered as an incredible player and will be brought up in many discussions, but they both wont be in those all time greats like Messi will be. Rooney has been slumping lately big time, but at his best, he's better than Drogba by a small amount.
While Messi is arguably the best player in the world, he's primarily a winger, not a striker.

he is like the Lebron James of soccer... he is a BEAST
Kobe is better than Lebron, so by your analogy somebody must be better than Drogba.
