Welcome to Fan Debate, brought to you by Sky Bet.

In this episode, Jamie Carragher is joined by Wayne Rooney and some of the biggest fan channels in the country to talk all things strikers past and present!

Wayne looks back on the toughest defenders he faced during his career, including legends like John Terry and Paolo Maldini. Meanwhile, Jamie reflects on his own battles with top forwards, including what it was like to face Didier Drogba.
