Hutcho 8,443 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I think its because the whole footballing world seems to be on his back so us/ our own fans go out their way to show support for our player and get behind him... If we as chelsea fans turn against torres then he has no hope of ever getting back to the level he once was at... He is our striker in our team and the one we are relying on to get us goals up top at the moment, no good can come from not getting behind him. He knows more than anyone he needs to pick it up, we are just trying to build confidence etc. Stingray 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clevemayer 764 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 sorry guys but I thought torres did pretty well at the CS and the last game too, and I was against his move from day one because I told he was on the decline because of his injurys... but he did some great stuff on the pitch and had some nice flips and tricks... well done for him... he seems to get nearer to his old self every minute he gets on the pitch...so stop complaining when he has a good string of games... if he starts to play like crap you can come back at him...

Las7 951 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 As long as he scores winning goals for us, I don't really care about his performances.That was his first winner in the League, I personally have the same opinion if he starts winning us matches constantly than I don't care if his overall game is lacking. Problem with Torres is his apologists, who expect us to forget the last 2 years and take our cocks out whenever he doesn't miss control a ball. If you lot didn't make a god damn compilation of Torres fixing his hair while tearing into other Chelsea players, I'd probably not even enter this thread too many times. In any case, for a "World Class" player his contribution is lacking and I'm feel in the coming months as the rest of the squad gels together it would be pretty apparent who the weak link is. He is going to be under more scrutiny unless we sign another striker or he looses the undropable status he seems to hold at the moment.

DH1988 1,348 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Didn't read any of the earlier posts tbh.Very confident in Torres this season - playing with other players that are football intelligent - now he has a few players trying to pick him out and spot his runs rather than just Juan Mata.I like what I see so far.

Muzchap 8,966 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Agreed, just watched the highlights and he did well.Dont forget when he runs, he pulls away defenders, which creates space for our other players - I'm not sure how many of you have played football, but @ Uni we had a 'Preston' (12 yrs ago) player in our team - and he could create amazing space by taking 2 defenders with him, wherever he went on the field.I think we should give him 10 games - then see where we are at...If Ramires would have passed to him, could have been a whole different game - I think that shit needs to stop though, he needs to just get on with it rather than sulk...

Milan 17,956 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Why the plural winning goals? Yesterday was Fernando's first winning goal in the league in his Chelsea career and it was his 48th Premier League match. Hopefully we don't have to wait that long for the next one.That was his first winner in the League, I personally have the same opinion if he starts winning us matches constantly than I don't care if his overall game is lacking. Problem with Torres is his apologists, who expect us to forget the last 2 years and take our cocks out whenever he doesn't miss control a ball.I know it was his first winner. I meant that if he continues to do so, if he starts scoring winners on a regular basis, then I do not care how he performs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamiCFC9 258 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Was huge fan of him and still but ...He looks like a sports car without horse power really.The thing is I watched him alot back then when he was at Liverpool and Fernando Torres of the present is far less the player he was a couple of years ago.For me,he is pretty much done.Doesn't have the abilities (mostly pace) that made him world class anymore.

You've watched this season, right? I agree it was a concern previously but not now, he seems to have gathered back what pace we thought he had lost.. see yesterday where he blasted past 3 players and unfortunately missed the resulting shot he fashioned for himself.I think something else to think is that Liverpool played completely different to what we play now and have done previously when we bought Torres. The team was centered around his pace and over the top/through balls. Unfortunately some of our players lack the football intelligence/ability to do this, sorry to oust Lampard/Mikel as I think they've played well.At least we now have Hazard + Mata to spot his runs and they did a pretty good job, especially Hazard last night of passing to him in the right areas and spotting his exceptional movements off the ball.

Sheva. 5,373 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Should have done better during this play, did brilliantly to create the opportunity for himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 This.I'm not saying he was good yesterday, because he was kind of horrible, but he did what his job is, to score goal.If it was Drogba yesterday, and not him, the majority of people would be all about how a fucking magnificient player he is, because he is shit in the whole match, but still manages to grab the winner.and on the flip side if it was Kalou?

What i mean is, for example, that if Torres scores maybe 10 goals this season thanks to them another striker would score maybe 15. I just think he lacks the striker instics of being at the right place at the right time and so on. And im not really talking about some one with a 35 million price tag like Cavani. I think that someone like Cisse from Newcastle would be a great improvment for us, someone that likes to score for fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pacquiao 1,834 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 one of the moves he use to do every other week with Liverpool, why has it taken 18 months for us he has been doing that kind of stuff ever since he signed for us! i see him all the time ghost past players like their not even there! he usually goes past one or two players then either passes or gets tackled by the last defender, but he has been ghosting past players ever since he signed for us! but people still think he has lost his pace and trickery for some reason!
