capriccioso 2,545 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Torres is on one goal per 11 hours at the moment. That's really not good enough. If we can get a decent run with him in these remaining few games of the season (say, 10 from 15) we can pull off a heist by pretending he's back to his best. If that happens we could easily pick up 30 million for him. I think we all agree he's not cut out to lead the line for us next year.I may be proven wrong, of course. What if he hits a hat trick against City and then follows it up with a goal a game all the way up to the Champions League Final? In that case I'd have to flip on my current position.

In that case I'd have to flip on my current position.True,he can be a very unpredictable player and his erratic performances have shown that.We can rely more on Drogba and maybe Sturridge(if he gets the chance to play cf) but all of us want Torres to succeed here at Chelsea and be the striker he used to be.Our confidence level increases when we see him score goals and provide assists but then there are times where he is just terrible.The only reason why I support Torres is because I admire his modest personality and work rate.Lets not forget his past achievements as a footballer.He did a brave thing by coming here from Liverpool for a hefty transfer amount and we all just want him to do well here.Even if we part ways with him,I just hope he leaves on a good note so that he can succeed in the future.

capriccioso 2,545 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I don't think many teams, especially us in present condition can afford one let alone two luxury players who can be devastating once in a while but are rubbish more often than not. We've got two of those kinds of players; Sturridge and Torres.One of them must either leave or adapt their game so even when they're not having a great outing they can at least hold their own. For Sturridge this may be tracking back and helping the defence and ignoring his selfish nature, for Torres this could be putting in a Rooney/Drogba like performance where he hassles defenders.

Spike 12,049 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 This a football club and not a model agency and Cavani a damn good footballer.In nearly all circumstances I prefer Footballers to be ugly because it makes me feel better about myself. But this guy...he just creeps me out.Hell, I would take Ribery, Ronaldo and Ronaldinho and other 'uglies' in a heart beat. I really don't care what other guys look like.

Spike 12,049 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Who gives a fuck what he looks like, seriously He looks like a normal guy to meI never said I cared or 'gave a fuck'; I said he creeps me out. Stop putting words in my mouth.In this photo he looks like a normal guy. But when he plays he has a crazy look on his face that I find quite creepy sometimes. Probably why he scores so many goals; he scares the hell out of the defenders.Everyone just forget about, everyone is taking a joke so damn seriously. Let's move on, okay?Orange why are you so damn aggressive, anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BosnianLion 232 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I've thought this for a while about Cavani. Chill out people its just a side-note. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capriccioso 2,545 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Yeah...that would explain it...although you cant base this just on fm.....My mistake; its Belgium that grants citizenship after 3 years. Which is why we should look to change over from Holland to Belgium. Of course, there may be no problem getting a work permit if we've sent a player out to Vitesse and he gets regular call ups for his international team while on loan.

Kieran. 6,317 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Cavani doesn't look weird at all. Only when he scores an important goal does he look maniacal, which I find to be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrique 9,133 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Torres scored twice against Championship giants Leicester, and now it seems a lot of people believe he should be our main striker for next season, while he still has 3 PL goals in his Chelsea career.So I'm also putting DD in the pool.

termninja 5,290 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 It will take more then 2 goals against a Championship site to convince me of his future here, but I wish him all the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some acne cream wouldn't go amiss either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
