Jase 43,479 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 C'mon dude! Stay positive! It has to happen sometime.At the moment, it's more of hope than expectation. We might well have to see this nightmare out and pay for this act of stupidity 3 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Britmex 12 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Of the three strikers, I believe he is our best, and always gives 100%. Every time he has got it going this season, he seems to get injured. I hope he starts CL. The_Flash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duo11bluecl 207 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I think if he has read Chelsea forums he probably would have retired as a player by now due to depression. He isn't exactly someone who is arrogant, more like a shy guy that needs a lot of love and support to flourish. You know you have been pretty terrible when you are supposed to be your club's best striker on paper and the fans want you to be sold. Maybe he doesn't get it, he still think his performances are acceptable and that is why he doesn't try to go to the next level or demands to leave.

The_Flash 1,144 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 When all you have is Etoo who's is terrible and Ba who never even plays to show us how terrible he is, it really is a toss up who is best or worse. God we need a striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamon 103 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Torres is ridicolous, no matter if he is going to score against Gala or someone else.Here in Italy people laugh at him and at how woeful and bad he is, and I really think Chelsea should get rid of him at the end of the season at the cost of terminating his contract.Also, I'll never get how Torres can have so much fan boys around the World: Jesus, he is finished since 2009 and he did really one and only top season (2007/2008); it must be because he is spanish and blonde.Anyway, this Torres-situation is an utter joke by this time, and Chelsea must show him the exit-door, since this is not a circus or a psychologist department, but a top professional football team.

Popular Post! Tomo 21,751 Posted February 23, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted February 23, 2014 This fantasy that "Torres always gives 100%" has me in tears off laughter, Torres makes the Malouda post double season look like a work horse.For all the cringeworthy excuses made for him this one tops the lot.

Tomo 21,751 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Even you don't sound convinced that will happen in making that point.He took a pay cut to leave his boyhood club and had a little wobble after CL win, if Jose tells him this summer that he's 4th choice and will only get a look in if 2 are injured i will be amazed if he doesn't at the very least consider his options.

Desperately hoping the mentioned scenario there will happen (or anything that will kick him out of this club) but have also prepared for the possibility he may well stay on.

Sidzeret 2,257 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Having posted that, I'd rather see him leave in the summer. Terrible game against Everton to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were to look at stats this way:Eto'o at Chelsea 123 minutes per goal/assistSturridge at Chelsea 133 minutes per goal/assistDemba Ba at Chelsea 135 minutes per goal/assistSo yeah Torres is worse than any of the strikers we have recently had/have130 minutes is a value you should look for in terms of goals per minutes.

coolhead23 1,147 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Having posted that, I'd rather see him leave in the summer. Terrible game against Everton to say the least. 42 goals!

He has scored 41 (though some seem to have 42 but yeah) goals for us but only 24 assists, not 32, in my books.2010/11 - 1 goal and 2 assists2011/12 - 11 goals and 12 assists2012/13 - 21 goals and 7 assists2013/14 - 8 goals and 3 assists Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Las7 951 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 He does actually have 42 goals about 15 of those are against Championship level teams. Jose has spoken Torres isn't even a striker as far as he is concerned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not unless you look at what's behind the numbers.For instance, Drogba didnt score loads of goals for us the last 2 seasons, but boy if his goals were important. They were throughout his career. A big game player.MANY of Torres' goals are against championship teams and some are also when we were already up by 2-0 etc.Torres is shit now matter how you chose to look at it. You dont even have to read the statistics. Anyone who's followed Chelsea long enough, and especially since Torres joined, knows this.
