bushman 2,043 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 He did do something wrong actually, but luckily for us, even though Mike Dean did not see the what happned and actually booked Torred for the trip (wtf! he's worse than I thought!) the lino saw the hand but not the scratch so the FA can't do anything about it. The 1st incident was wrong, at least it looks that way. Perhaps, someone was even tinkering with the pictures. At the time, it did not appear to me, he was trying to scratch him. More likely, a tap " don´t do it kid. " The result is justified, one game ban. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquidator 5,176 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 As much as it should have been a 4 game ban because what he did was unacceptable and stupid, it is all swings and roundabouts. Ferdinand basically assulted Torres in the fa cup game at old Trafford and got nothing, Aguero tried to stamp on Luiz in the semi final last year, same result. We were raging when nothing was done about those.The FA needs to be more consistent with things like this. Scratching an opponent in the face, stamping on a player etc. are totally unacceptable actions and there is no reason they shouldn't be punished.

The only place to be 11,313 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Imagine what some of our fans would think of Dennis Wise. If they react like this (passionately putting forward their 'objective' views to seem superior? ) because of a petty scratch, people would be calling for Wise to get the electric chair after every game!Torres has really done very little. The amount of noise it's generating on this forum is shocking. You support Chelsea so act like it. Don't remember Wisey ever scratching anyone. He was no angel but we're talking about Torres scratching a player here - it's a horrendously pathetic thing to do on a sports pitch.He's lucky to have avoided a further ban so maybe this is the break that he needs, but people who don't see a problem with this type of thing probably haven't played much in the way of sport in their time.

Even so this incident was entirety different and way less malevolent then say a bite or a stomp. The way Vertonghen was playing was pathetic, and he was antagonizing and getting away with murder against Torres.How many times have we seen Torres get raped out on the pitch by a defender and get zero calls. It's absolutely ridiculous. zolayes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,585 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Alright! I'm getting a good vibe from Torres. I really think we will see a better him this season. And let's not forget that he keeps scoring goals in high profile game. With out a doubt number one striker right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
