That's why I don't fall kindly to January transfers. Martin O'Neill a few years ago touched on the fact that the January transfer window should be abolished. Well, I partly agree with this because I don't think it's fair to unsettle top quality players during the middle of the season, especially if you're trying to sign a highly expensive player, and you run the risk of not seeing the best out of them. Having said that, you can't expect a player like Torres to walk into a club, that use a completely different system to what he was used to at Liverpool and expect to bang them in. These take time to adjust themselves. Next Season, hopefully we will see the best of Torres because Boas will use him in the right way. A playmaker is absolutely imperative to sign in this transfer window. The only player I can see offering Torres the freedom in attack is Benayoun. If you watch the highlights of last season's home game against West Ham match again, you'll see that it was him that was feeding the balls into Torres just like he used to do at Liverpool. Torres could have easily got 2 in that game just on the strength of there being a playmaker in the squad. I'm not saying Gerrard is a playmaker (more likely to be an enforcer in the centre of midfield) but we need to bring in someone who has the quality and the morale to provide the ball for Torres when he most needs it. Modric, Pastore or my 1st choice Moutinho are the best choices. I choose Moutinho because Boas knows how to use him. You can't see more fairer results than the fact that Boas won 3 trophies with Porto in that season.
