Amblève. 4,995 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 http://www.weaintgot...lack-of-scoringFernando should be setting himself up more like Drogba, starting his runs on a defenders shoulder and creating more room for his midfield and wingers to play balls over the top. This is likely a large part of the reason Danny Sturridge does so well when paired with Drogba and virtually nothing when paired with Torres.My theory about Drogba's impact on Danny's performances is right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I was never excited when he signed. How could anyone have been excited for paying 50million for a player who'd been in just average to decent form for one and a half seasons. I hoped the links were just rumours. I'm not trying to say 'I told you so' because I also thought we should not have signed Luiz and now I'm one of his biggest fans. But just I still didn't understand why everyone was so happy then and I don't now.18 months previous??? in 2009/2010 he scored 22 in 32 games, considering the mess Liverpool were in that was a very decent return. He was poor for the first half of the season when he signed for us, but it was widely regarded a move was what was needed, how wrong we were,Am i the only one worried that we won't be able to flog him? 180k a week who's going to pay that? the best we can hope for is a loan (even if that means paying half his wages) pray to god he has a screamer then some club might take a punt on him for around £20m.

Badboy 1,526 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 @Tomo The good thing about Torres is I don't think he's the type of person to sit on the bench for a whole season in a Euro year. I think we have a good chance in selling him, he knows he'll have to take a mighty wage cut ! He has got to play games next season because his position with Spain is under jeopardy. He will not be a starter next season and he knows that so he has very little option but to go somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 You'd think he had never played football up front before with some of the things he does. He actually looks completely clueless. I get angry when i see what he did for Liverpool and Spain around 2007-2008 ish. Dismal. BlueLion. and DDA 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madrid fan in la liga thread said we should swap Torres for Falcao..Giving that those fools of Madrid also payed a big price for Falcao and he has not been that great, I think that would be an interchange both club can easily agree on.

Torres want to play next WC, he cant aford becoming a pathetic footballer at Chelsea. Im sure he would accept lesse money for a chance to become a footballer again, right now he is ex-footballer with huge wages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Torres's current situation proves beyond doubt that Kalou actually does really well getting 10 or so goals a season from a squad role and doesn't merely benefit from law of averages.

petr.breu 1,618 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Chelsea must keep faith with Torres“You can never give up on any player, no matter how good or bad they are, you must always try and work to get the best out of anyone."http://www.talksport.co.uk/sports-news/football/premier-league/1566/62/exclusive-wilkins-chelsea-must-keep-faith-torres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zolayes 14,489 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 don't like to disagree with Wilkins but I think we should call it a day and try to get as much as possible for him. eldo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Armour 4,439 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 http://www.talksport.co.uk/sports-news/football/premier-league/1566/62/exclusive-wilkins-chelsea-must-keep-faith-torresI actually think it might be possible to get Torres firing again, but its going to cost the club a lot of time and a lot of money. Won't really be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
