Tortilla9 390 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Trouble w/TorresThis may be one of the better stories I've read about Torres without the media flop spin and why he was successful at Liverpool and why he's struggling at Chelsea. Some interesting points:1. Arguably the biggest factor, however, is the exact shape and philosophy of the team he's trying to fit into. Basically, it's rare enough these days that you see Chelsea execute the kind of counter-attack that Liverpool did back on Torres's debut.2. Despite Torres's sleekness of touch when in flight, by contrast, he can be conspicuously club-footed when it comes to close-range build-up (so true!!). That's been evident throughout his international career with Spain, where he's often looked slightly out of place. Luis Aragones finally realised the solution to this in the build-up to Euro 2008. He used Torres's acceleration and direct running as decoys, getting him to stretch defences and give the rest of Spain's artists more space to play.3. It helped, of course, that Liverpool were built to play this way and had numerous key figures capable of providing that kind of pass above all, Xabi Alonso and Gerrard. The latter, for all his faults and frequent occasions that he blazed a ball into the stands, would generally hit one gem a game.4. Chelsea, by contrast, don't currently have that kind of architect. In that sense, Torres is a season too late. He would have benefitted from playing with Deco who was well capable of threading through-balls or, to a lesser extent, Michael Ballack. At the moment, Frank Lampard always occupies the attacking-midfield position that would offer this type of pass. Although he has many qualities, perception like that isn't one of them. Instead, Lampard will often shoot where a true playmaker would look for the killer ball.Given the Englishman's goal return, this isn't a problem per se... unless you have a striker who is generally wasted if he doesn't have that type of ball. And it's why Ancelotti could be best served by again dropping Torres tonight. Until they buy a necessary playmaker or sufficiently develop a different approach, Chelsea are a more cohesive unit without the Spaniard.

YankinBlue42 72 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Today I'll be wearing my Torres jersey for the first time while watching a game live. I think that's a good sign. I will relish the chance to run around the bar, screaming in delight, holding up my Torres jersey while the women look away in horror.

Tortilla9 390 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 "I think there is a tendency to judge Torres in an outrageously simplictic way and focus on his lack of goals since he came to Chelsea. I just look at what I see and as someone who spent his career trying to create things for these guys, I think I could find Torres time and time again." - Pat Nevin in the buildup before the match (Monday) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 He's has so many opportunities which is positive, just his finishing has been lacking. He's done more than Drogba anyway, ok Drogba scored against Stoke but he's getting on my nerves atm, his body language, final ball, moaning, 'simulation'.... absolute shit today. Torres was good but again just not quite there. Wigan at home next, he's bound to get more chances to score against that lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 There was no supply once again though! Only Zhirkov & Ramires gave him something to run onto to try and get in a shot. Lampard always went out wide, Drogba couldn't find a link up with him & Essien was being.. His natural self. We lack a clean-cut passer, something Lampard used to be.
