RamiCFC9 258 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 I remember this same flirting when AVB first arrived, hek I even remember Falcao saying that he is ready to play for Chelsea. Then we ended up being stuck with this guy. I wouldn't keep my hopes up if I were you mate.Back then the club had Drogba and still hopes for Torres now both are gone.Roman is business after all and Torres is obvious deadwood earning 250K per week, I've no doubt that if everything depends on us we will ship him even in Jan.

Then we ended up being stuck with this guy.Yes but Robbie never entertains these transfer stories, invariably strainght-batting questions with a standard 'He's a good player but he isn't our player'. Not quite so this week.Atletico haven't played him in the EL at all this season; there's a theory going around it's to keep him from being cup-tied for us.I have a feeling there's too much logic to this move for it to not have been agreed already.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 I realy hate that our board doesnt respond to transfer stories...When there was City-Suarez rumour, Mancini said yesterday that its just BS. But Di Matteo says nothing. Ever. FFS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point him coming back to sit on the bench for a season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea? 892 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 RDM saying we are interested is the first time I've heard a coach not fully behind Torres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Las7 951 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 RDM saying we are interested is the first time I've heard a coach not fully behind Torres.Actually towards AVB's time here he compared Torres to Kezman Sheva than Roman promptly booted him out. He made the comments on the 29th of February Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amblève. 4,995 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Torres played in the Europa for Liverpool then the CL for us in the same season, so that won't be the reason.Well, Jai is right.Azpilicueta already played one game for Marseille in the qualifying stages of the Europe League this season which means that we can't register any other player, who has already made an appearance in the EL (e.g. Falcao), for the CL campaign, IIRC.

So not playing is probably just to keep him fresh. Stingray 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
