We are going to win so guys please don't worry,just keep calm and support Chelsea!

Hes an exceptional player and I think he deserves to play for our first team next season.He will be perfect for the left winger role,lets just hope Chelsea sell Kalou and Malouda in the summer and don't buy a winger otherwise he will be another disappointed Chelsea loanee

To be fair,Torres was very lucky to score those two goals.The keeper wasn't in good form and if he had been,I am sure he would have saved at least one or maybe even both of them.After he got the first goal,Torres was like a completely new player.His dribbling and passing was much better and you could see that spark of confidence in him,which IMO is a damn good sign.He can be a real effective winger for us and maybe could be compatible with Drogba on the pitch.Against Napoli,we saw the two play quite well. It will be very unfair,if RDM picks Torres over Drogba as the lone center forward.Drogba has been really consistent for us and I don't think it will be a good idea keeping him on the bench.Drogba has the ability to score from free kicks and his strength is another positive.We play 3 crucial games in the next 9 days,lets see how our players are going to cope with it and if fatigue is an issue for Drogba then it will be good to know that we have a reliable alternative.

Last thing we need is another center back.

Anyone see the similarity?

I am not saying that we should play Torres instead of Drogba but I am sure the team can perform well if Torres plays as a winger with Drogba.Lets not forget we play 3 crucial games(CIty,Spurs and Benfica) in a matter of 9 days.Surely you don't expect Drogba to start for all 3.

I am glad that RDM is giving Kalou some chances so that he can prove his critics wrong and in that process help attract interest from other top clubs in the world.Arsenal have showed interest in him but I am sure Chelsea will be reluctant to sell to a rival club.This may be his last season at Chelsea and I will be happy if he leaves on a good note.

Lets just pray that Muamba recovers soon and that Bolton beat Spurs.

Its not that we all want Torres to start on Wednesday just because he scored today.He played really well today and to keep that confidence going its important that we give him a chance against City.Benching may dampen his confidence but the problem is we cant start him and Drogba. Ramires will be most likely starting as a right winger and I think it will be risky if we change our formation so that two center forwards can play together.Only solution is that RDM plays Torres as a left winger instead of Kalou but then what will happen to Sturridge and the rest. I just feel so bad for RDM,hes going to have a really hard time choosing his best 11.

Performance today will definitely increase his market value and maybe perhaps some more clubs will be interested in him.Today we all have seen what he is capable of and if Chelsea decide to part ways with him then I am sure he won't be short of suitors.Lets just hope he continues this good form.

I think with figures like Lampard and Terry in the team,you just need a motivator like RDM.Anything more than that will not be really helpful at all.

I know under AVB's reign,we complained of our group of players not being world class and all but today I saw what all our players are capable of.For some reason,we were quick and playing some good football.Against Napoli,I saw most of the old guard performing well and now today we were great also. Torres looked like a completely new player after his goal and I am glad hes finally performing for us.I haven't been his biggest fan lately but he sure has proved me wrong.My only advice to him now would be to be careful with his tackling.Don't want to see another red card and disrupt his rhythm. Overall our players played well and most importantly played like a team.Now,they must keep up this good form and lead Chelsea to immense glory.

Well he will mix up his team with experience and youth and if he chooses to drop some senior players then I am sure he will communicate with them and ensure that there is effective two way communication.I admire his tactical abilities and he seems to get along quite well with his team but only time will tell his true fate.One thing is for sure,he is not going to be managing any small clubs like WBA or MK Dons.

RDM should stay as boss.Roman would be mad to sack him!

By the end of the night,this thread going to have more than 300 pages. Well played Torres!

yeah if Sturridge passes,he surely will.

Here you go mate http://www.lshunter.tv/football-live-streaming-video.html

I agree,AVB tried too hard to become a feared manager.Its evident that there wasn't much effective communication and the fact that he concentrated more on the future than the present was quite a gamble.I am not saying he did a bad job at Chelsea but he could have handled the situation much better.AVB deserved to be given more time but this is Chelsea Football Club and he should have known better.

John Terry has scored more goals than Torres this season so lets not keep our hopes high.

A simply magnificent post.

He was just telling Luiz that all 3 substitutions have been made.Why is it such a big deal man!

TORRES BETTER TAKE SOME NOTES.

Wow,talk about being honest.
