Fernando Torres

We know he can't trap the ball better than heskey, we know he has the poorest passes in our team(70% completed) but what I can't understand is why he doesn't shoot as the striker.

Why don't the team encourage him to shoot more, I mean oscar shoots more than torres. Torres took only one shot against shaktar, how can u score if u don't shoot?

RDM is shying away from this instead of having a talk with torres before we start losing games because of his incompetence.

He rarely finds himself in a decent position to shoot. And when he does, he often fluffs it by overplaying. He seems to think he's a master dribbler, he is not. Most of his good dribbles are a result of the ball bouncing back from defender's feet.

It would be alarming if his positioning cannot get him into at least 4 shooting positions per game. Because from what I have been seeing so far, he has 2 shots per game. I just can't understand if he has lost interest in scoring.

The dribbling problem is because he has lost his strength to hold up the ball and bring others into play, so he tries to go head on and loses the ball anyway.

He should shoot more so that the defenders can have something to think about he did it from range against newcastle and scored. He should try it more, RDM just has to have a talk with him and stop pretending everytin is ok.

World class finish from him tonight, fucking beast. The intention was there, technique, pace - all rolled into one ball of blonde fur. El Nino is back, guys! I have a feeling this will give him his confidence back, even if scoring against Barca, the wonder strike against Newcastle and the European Cup golden boot didn't. This will, for sure, once and for all.

But if he doesn't start scoring, then everybody else behind him is shit, because El Golscoro is back and he proved it!!!!!!!!!1

Manpe = legend.

13 more games to endure with Torres before the winter transfer window opens in January. :doh:

I really DO hope the club gets another striker in January. Otherwise, we are pretty much screwed for the rest of the season with just Torres and Sturridge!
