Former Premier League striker Bobby Zamora names ex-Chelsea defender Ricardo Carvalho as his toughest opponent because he 'CHEATED really well' - and says Jamie Carragher was his easiest!

Former Premier League striker Bobby Zamora has named former Chelsea defender Ricardo Carvalho was his toughest opponent to play against because he 'cheated really well'.

The Portuguese partnered John Terry in a Chelsea's much-feared defence during their title-winning seasons in 2005 and 2006 under Jose Mourinho, and Zamora says he was the player he least liked coming up against.

The former West Ham, Fulham and QPR says Carvalho wasn't strong and powerful like his partner Terry but used to 'read the game really well' and was an expert in the defensive dark-arts tactics.
