RamiCFC9 258 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I don't blame the board because Torres back then was if not top3 then top5 striker in the world and just remember his last 2 livpool goals against us, to predict that THAT player can become so shit is virtually impossible.

ja1 1,166 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Torres was declining even before he joined us, to me it was quite obvious. Peace., xPetrCechx and Reddish-Blue 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xPetrCechx 13,570 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Torres was declining even before he joined us, to me it was quite obvious.This!Roman bought him only because of his name and ability in the past years. in the last year before joining us, he was awful.How he can be so blind.

Spike 12,049 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Torres was an Ancelloti signing. Carlo wanted him and Carlo got him. Peace. and CHOULO19 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzchap 8,966 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 He is the single most frustrating player ever...He looks like he needs a good slap and a kick up the arse.No denying he has ability - but so many things have to happen (lunar eclipse etc) before he can play well...He needs to move on, as we do, invest in the future, forget the past... nachikethas and xPetrCechx 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xPetrCechx 13,570 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Misfiring Torres warned he could be axed as Chelsea square up to Man Unitedhttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2223926/Fernando-Torres-warned-axed-Chelsea.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stats 7,142 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 The annoying thing with Torres is that he will score in one game and people will think this is going to kickstart his season but then he goes on a drought for another 3 games then will score in the next game and then people are left thinking maybe he is starting to hit his stride and then back to square 1. Really frustrating because if he was on fire every game I think people could easily argue we have the most fearsome attack in Europe Manuf and Muzchap 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Can anyone truthfully say they weren't excited by the Torres transfer? Can anyone truthfully say that at the time, if we had the choice of signing Torres, Falcao or Cavani, they would've picked any of the latter two? I don't think so.

Las7 951 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 I would have taken Falcao ahead of Torres at the time, but at the time I didn't want us to sign a striker anyway wasn't really the issue with the squad. Reddish-Blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ja1 1,166 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Yes, I was always against the Torres transfer. £50m for, in my view, a declining and injury prone (though he hasn't been the latter at Chelsea) striker? Was never going to work. Reddish-Blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavani > Falcao > Torres.And to think, Cavani was available in the 30-35 million region..before his transfer to Napoli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kezza 1,965 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 fernando aint godd enough bcuz he doenst make the rights run and he doesnt dribble ball well also he is blonde also he isnt Falcao or benzema. they play in spain so they are better than torres even though torres played in spain once like 10 years ago when liverpool bought him. maybe we shud just sergio agwero or rooney as they are the best strikers in england and rooney captins england so that makes him even better. i hate kalou lol he sux. has anyone actually ever considered that maybe signing players for lots of monies like torres makes them bad players? i know ronaldo cost more than torres but that doesnt count so what im syaing is that expensive players suk and we should look for bargins like lamps and mata because they didnt cost mcuh even thouhg they cost more than ill ever make in my life. mikel sucks becuz he doesnt run and score goals a lot like ronaldo and messi i think that htey should also be signed but not for much money so if they are signed for a little like lamps and mata they will becom even better players than they are. if they are played in the two pivot with ramirez ( best player in the world) we will win the premer league and fa cup in like 20 minutes flat. also falco is the best striker in the world becuz he fashions his own chances and scores his won goals because he can shot dribble and pass like maradona. if he is signed tooo we will win everthing ever made even the serie r. but as i said before he needs to be bought for little bit of money so he can be a better player bexuz players tha t are expensie play worse like torres but not ronaldo. but it doesnt really matter becuz we have ramirez who is brazilan and brazilan are the bests footballers in earth because of fat ronaldo and cristaino ronaldo maradona pele and neymar and ronaldinyo he also runs and sprints a lot and has also when he runs he can shoot and pass not everyone can do that like mikel who has to stand to anything becus he suks lol/ torres sux becuez he shitLol..this forum in a nutshell!

The Skipper 20,609 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 A lot of people are saying that in hindsight they would've preferred Cavani or Falcao, but neither at the time were as hot as they are now. Just go to the start of this thread and you'd see how many were elated by this signing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcao was not really linked with us even though I though he would also be a better option - Neymar was my favorite out of the three players because of his creativity.

RamiCFC9 258 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Whoever is saying would've preferred Falcao or Cavani over Torres, well you are obviously lying, both lads were pretty much nothing back then and were very unknown so please you are either the best scouts in the world or just lying like fuks.
