Tricky

Err okay, I've a time machine.... As of Jan 1st he has 16 goals in all competitions. Cavani and Falcao shall also be injured by Jan. I love my time machine.

Nice... Well played boys.

?

Torres MOM IMO...

Really? We have eicked on them for 85 mins.

Get in...

Damn another well played pass behind the defence. You guys crack me up....

Fuck off Nando, three well played passes in ten minutes!! Just not good enough...

Grow up.... In the last ten minutes he has sent two ppl through one on one. Give him credit when he does something.... Hell I slag him off when he is bad, but I'll support him when he does something well.

More shite from Torres...

Because you bitch and moan about everythin he does wrong... Your not even remotely interested if he does something well.

Jesus!!! What a douche...

He is no pivot player...

Stupid fucking Torres and he perfectly weighted pass. He is fucking shite...

I do respect him, you just don't get it.... Ps - For example: http://roadto2010final.blogspot.co.uk/2007/10/drogba-wants-to-leave-chelsea.html?m=1

Dude the fans at the match sing his name.... Enough said!!

Lol what the fuck!!! Anyone would think the guy gave us world peace. Ps - he wasnt slating Drogba, just pointing out to the fanboys that he wasn't always the most reliable of players. Anyway off to my seat!!

Same DD who scored thirteen league goals between 2007-09 seasons? Or the one that managed only 16 league goals in his last two seasons at the club? Is Didier a legend? Yes Did supporters want rid at certain points? Yes Is he better than Nando? Yes Did management give him time? Yes, and that's precisely why he became a legend. I thank my lucky stars that some of the people on here don't run our club.

You obviously forget the number of times DD wanted to leave us. Or the periods when he was pants (there have been several - shock horror). He played on the wing because Carlo wanted Drogba through the middle (by the way that didn't help him). Hardly benched Drogba, for most of last year all of those seated around me wanted Nando to start over "the legend" because of his poor attitude and performance.

Yeah throw away culture.... Let's just spank another £50 million on someone else!! Can you imagine what would be said if we were not actually top of the league? Christ doesn't bare thinking about.

No chance... We have three very good CBs and cover with Iva. Why would we want splash serious cash on a transfer and pay his (no doubt) astronomical wages? Is his contract up for renewal at the moment? What we do need is an additional CM. Find it hard to believe that Essien couldn't have done a job for us. Hell Jose trusted him enough to start against City.

Sigh..... Buy buy buy.... Chances of us spending an additional £40-50 million in Jan on a striker are zero. No point, Torres shall have scored 15 goals by then. Only area I can see us improving on is CM, the glaring whole in our 4-2-3-1 formation.

Torres is that Corsa... Might not be the best but it gets you there in the end!!! ?

Time of the month? ?

I compared them last year and you said it wasn't a fair comparison due to age. So I've rewound a few years and compared Drogba first 18 months (in a better team) and now that's unfair as well. How about 07-09 when he managed only 13 leave goals in two seasons? Remember a lot of people wanting rid off him at that point. Or his last two seasons when he scored only 16 league goals in 60 league games? Drogba was a great striker. What really made him great was that he stepped up in big games and changed it for us. I won't deny that.... but I won't pretend there were not periods when he was pants. Torres has had a pants period, sure he is partly responsible for that, but so is the team (see Drogba stats over same period). Unlike some I'm not writing him off just yet. I'll give him till Xmas, if he / team is struggling then I'll accept that we might need an alternative. But until then I'm giving him my 100% support.
