Torres shouldn't of came on in this game. More ammunition for the press and the anti Torres community that will continue to give him a hard time without taking into fact he was given 10 minutes with not decent service. Although I cannot defend that woeful pass at the end.
He's been on the pitch about 10 minutes with Anelka & Malouda. Not his fault they refuse to pass to him. Give him a full 90 mins with Mata & Meireles then judge him when he's got some proper service.
Wow, this was a game we shoulda killed off ages ago yet we managed to give ourselves a shaky finish. Today's performance overall was much better though but we're gonna have a tough time against United next week.
Mata rested for mid week I'm guessing. AVB is not thinking about Torres or his confidence or how he's going to play better & grab a goal. He's expected to do it all himself. Hope Meireles can be the key for him today.
Stamp looks deliberate in my opinion, he comes down with force, if he meant to clear the player he wouldn't of put that much force on landing. Although he turns around straight away to check Mata is okay.
