termninja 5,290 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 His link up play is good though...I'm a bit worried with Robbie not giving him a break at all since he works a lot on the pitch. Hopefully Danny will be back soon. Bosnian Blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRiver 1,512 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 He was good tonight actually, just really should've scored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 HIs finishing was a worry tonight, but his all round game in the last couple of matches has been fantastic. DYC., sleazyB, Steve and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DH1988 1,348 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Finishing was poor today but work rate and link up were fantastic. Anyone else love watching Torres, Oscar and co in and around the penalty box? They are getting to know how each other move/play The Rising Sun 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 As a striker, if you aren't going to score you better damn well make sure you put in a good shift. Torres did that today. Poor finishing, but excellent link-up play and a tireless performance. Kieran. and Tomo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! kellzfresh 7,229 Posted October 4, 2012 Popular Post! Share Posted October 4, 2012 In our last champions league game, i was impressed with torres1. Got behind the defence and how he started his runs from deeper(making his team mates to see his runs in time) instead of starting runs beside the defender and getting offside.Maybe its because of a better understanding with oscar too as well as mata.2. He also got better with holding the ball without loosing it. (example was ramires goal, former torres will lose the ball before oscar can get it)3. He also reduced dribbling stupidly and loosing possesionI have a feeling dimatteo has recognised this and told him because dimatteo recognised the problem in the double pivot too and put ramires there.I just pray he doesnt take another confidence fall again and loses form for 10 matches before recovering because i cant take anymore of that.Overall im happier with his movement now, its just left with better finishing, confidence to shoot and staying away from the wings.What do you think zolayes, .Cee, underdrog and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 How many times have we said 'Torres is improving in this Area, he now needs to work on that area'. Its gotten old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham Broadway 17,312 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 The pace won't ever fully come back but he can still be a highly productive striker in this team. His problem is that he could score a hat trick against Norwich and follow it up with a brace against Donesk but a miss the following weekend will still see him go into his shell,sulkingHe's still working hard for team, he wants to get the ball which is why he goes out wide to get it sometimes,but that also means no one is in the middle trying to make a run.I think he could score 20 goals this season for us and the media would still label him a failure.

Dargo 6 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 He gets out of position quite a bit, I remember when against Nords the many times we attempted quick passing around and in the box and Torres was even behind the Hazataoscar trio, he was basically in holding MF, he needs to stay at the front.

I truly have a soft spot for him as a chelsea fan and naturally want all our players to be good.Of course but there's only so many times you can get your hopes up about the 'return' of Torres. If he keeps scoring though I may change my mind down the track. chelsea maniac and Reddish-Blue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with our new possesion based players, he wont have that problem soon enough i hope. The main issue is him losing possesion and falling down which spoils our play and makes our players reduce passing to him.If he can fix dat, then he's good. I really like how he takes the shot these days instead of just trying to dribble into the post Fulham Broadway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
