Badboy 1,526 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Danny >>>> Chicharito in terms of talent and value for moneyDanny is more complete but i think Hernandez just edges him out in the finishing department. Danny is an awesome finisher too though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Armour 4,442 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Its more difficult to look good if you are a sub in the last 12-13 mins. He showed passion, something that Drogba is lacking. The fact that the Bridge was chanting Torres's name inspite of a Legend playing in his role, speaks volumes of how poor Drogba has been.If you had said that around the time he got carded I would have agreed, but in the last two games he was definitely more involved, and Torres is looking pretty hungry himself which is a good sign (I think you wanted something like this earlier in the season?) ...the fact that the Bridge was chanting Torres name doesn't concern me in the slightest....Heck they even had a banner ready for Torres before he hardly played a game for Chelsea..that's something Drogba never had in his three title winning seasons with the club..Anyways, I'm pretty sure the Torres name chant had nothing to do with Drogba really,... they just wanted to see their star striker get at least a few minutes to dazzle them....Also being a sub has its advantages..If you're experienced enough you'll know how to take advantage of tired legs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Armour 4,442 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Why spend 50 mill on a player for one season ?Well..not all investments reap rewards...I'm not saying the Torres transfer is a failure...No he still has time to prove his worth..atm I believe he has lost his starting spot to Didier, and so he'll have to make the most of the minutes he has, namely as a sub or squad player. If he can prove that he's better than Drogba in those opportunities he should be given the starting spot back. Giving the starting 11 spot right now and tossing it back and forth between the two strikers will not be good for either of them, as they both need to settle down to hit, and more crucially, maintain top form.

Sheva. 5,373 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Danny is more complete but i think Hernandez just edges him out in the finishing department. Danny is an awesome finisher too though.Far more complete. Hernandez can't do anything else apart from poaching goals, he can't even make a simple pass.

ChelseaChick 430 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I think its fair to say that I am the lucky charm... I really enjoyed that match! Chelsea fans in MH are mad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodZola 630 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 About the Torres chanting, the shed end (where I was sat) started chanting his name when Drogba lost possession, Torres then started to warm up & the chanting got louder, Torres responded with a fist clench to the shed end apparently which roused the chanting to another level, the MH stand responded with some support for Drogs which the shed end again replied to with Torres chants. Both players got rapturous applause with the substitution - fantastic support, its just a pity that TV doesn't pick up on some of the atmosphere at the stadium.As for the game, it was great to see the players celebrate together after each goal - clearly shows there is no lack of unity amongst the squad & all talk of player unrest from the media looks total fabrication. Mata & Sturridge quite rightly deserve plaudits but for me Romeu was quite simply magnificent! His performance has gone under the radar a little because of Mata & Sturridge but I cannot remember him losing possession, i was surprised of his physical presence - he's a big lad! He has 2 great feet also which you don't see too often with pro's nowadays. He has massive potential & I see no reason why he cannot go to be something special but its early doors & we must judge him after a season & against better opposition - what a prospect though!Great to watch us win & let's hope this is a platform to build on especially a clean sheet, won't go overboard with the result as we need to get some consistency in our game, encouraging signs though.

middleoftheshed 388 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Anyways, I'm pretty sure the Torres name chant had nothing to do with Drogba really,... they just wanted to see their star striker get at least a few minutes to dazzle them....Yes thats right, the Torres chants were not anti-Drogba as there were songs for him too.The way I saw it, we were 3-0 up, Drogba had done his bit for the day and we have a £50m striker who needs to start scoring again - so get him on!

Badboy 1,526 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Far more complete. Hernandez can't do anything else apart from poaching goals, he can't even make a simple pass. Neither of them can play upfront on their own but they are both severely lethal in the penalty area. I don't think it really matters if Hernandez can not do much else purely because of the way united like to play the game with 2 wingers providing service. I think it would be very interesting to compare the 2 if Sturridge was allowed to play alongside another forward because Sturrridge is playing out wide and he is free scoring.

Henri 115 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 He did?I disagree completely. Though I do think Torres should start ahead of Drogba for the next game, this was simply not true ^We all can discuss from here to eternal Drogba or Torres?, but thats not the point - they cant play together and keep benchingone of them doesnt help the other, it simply dont make them better rather hurting big egos. They both has to play alone in thefront, thats why our owner doesnt know jack shit about football, if he bought Torres to keep Drogba!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corazón De León 58 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Great weekend for Chelsea!!! I just hope we destroy LFC tomorrow as well!!! JT has the same amount of goals as Suarez this season... Our captain is the best! Haha but the yellow card was dumb!
