zolayes 14,489 Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 If Robbie played Torres for the rest of the season, and gave some decent game time to Lukaku we could see how both stack up for next season. I don't see the point in keeping trust in Drogba when he's leaving in the summer and a few good games aside, has been shite for the last 18 months.If Torres bombs then we need a new main striker, but if he played and got another 4 or 5 goals this season then I would stick with him.Torres has always thrived being the main man and having someone have confidence in him being main man. It was the case at both Atletico Madrid and Liverpool.I would then in those circumstances be happy for us to buy someone like Demba Ba if his £7m release clause is true to add the squad depth left thin by the departure of Drogba.agree with all of that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrique 9,133 Posted March 25, 2012 Author Share Posted March 25, 2012 a little surprised only 2 voted for drog more surprised that 12 think Lukaku is ready to be our MAIN strikerI included Drogba days ago because if people believe Torres should be our mains striker, why not Didier.

Kezza 1,965 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I think we shouldnt waste our money on a striker. Use Sturridge as our main striker, buy a winger and a midfielder. Sturridge is hungry for goals! His selfishness could prove effective.Unless we can get Falcao. That would be boss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny should stay on the wing, I don't think he will ever get his wish playing central because his game is based on pace and running unless we get a new coach that play different system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeB 1,281 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Torres has always thrived being the main man and having someone have confidence in him being main man. It was the case at both Atletico Madrid and Liverpool.He went to Chelsea to win titles and be part of a real squad ; not a "3 players and 8 random blokes" gamesheet anymore like at Liverpool. From that I don't think we can reproach him with the fact he didn't expected his current numerical situation.It's like with the fee, I don't think it's about the 60m but really the mediatic harassing. Torres planned a move quite early and not many clubs in Europe could have payed a huge fee and many were struck from the list (City, Manure, Real...)This season I think Torres hasn't been that bad considering that he was at the top of a static team with no deliveries. And he really has managed to produce a dozen of good/very good performances where he was given a run, or when he had good deliveries (it's not with one lucky chance per game that he could have broken his goal drought during the winter...)Players like Drogba or Cavani are able to create chances from themselves with poor service and poor deliveries quality (clearances Drogba manages to transform into chances by example). If Cavani eventually signs I already see stupid comparisons between what the one can do and not the other. Anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Big Drog 1,110 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Fernando Torres, perhaps buy another striker but there is no need to spend major, 40-50 million pound type money, as we would have to if we were to sign Cavani. Next season has to be Fernando's year to be given the opportunity of being the main man at Chelsea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
