🇪🇸 Fernando Torres

Recommended Posts

Oh well if it's wrong then it's stupid but if it's right, Torres wins in an overall sense, Balotelli wins as the striker. Football is a team game tho and i bet Torres has more assists and contribution that lots of wingers.

Just checked the stats, its wrong. Suarez has 12 goals and 10 assists, Balotelli has 15 goals and 1 assist, Torres has 6 goals and 13 assists, and Dzeko has 18 goals and 8 assists.

Anybody is welcome to check here:

So why not just play ...

Mata - Drogba - Torres

No?

Well Dzeko's stats are very good then even tho i genuinely think he's a very average player. He's often in the right place tho and he's a pretty good finisher. He'll leave City i think in the summer.

Dont want this going off topic but Mancini has not utilized him properly and has essentially killed his confidence. It would have been much better on a team like United for example that uses wingers and would have allowed him to play more.

Mancini benched him after his 4 goal masterpiece against Spurs. Idiot.

Not trying to defend mancini but Dzeko is a target man and a very good one, in fact he will be perfect for our team, but as a coach you have to decide what kind of player that suit your team better in certain game, Balotelli suit the way city play better.

btw Ferguson does not play berbatov(target man) eventhough he was EPL top scorer.

EPL:

Dzeko 13 + 4 = 17

Balotelli 11 + 1 = 12

Suarez 6 + 3 = 9

Torres 2 + 4 = 6

I don't know about you but it's the EPL not games against Genk; Leichester etc that should be used to judge forwards.

Can't dispute that.

Torres has done ok in the UCL tho, how has Suarez done in Europe this season. Ooops!

Drogba qualified us to this stage of the CL being the best player on the field in the match against Napoli and Valencia - yet somehow he doesn't deserve to start. I know that there is only one option for our big games and that is Drogba. Good to see Torres improving his form, it would be nice if he keeps this up so we can make at least half of what we paid when we sell him in the summer.

Lol..yeah...It only takes a couple of games for people to change their minds here..

Agree with that. I'd play him ahead of Drogba in all the games from now on. Except against Barcelona IF we reach the semis and get them. Drogba simply does not deserve to start. Torres as a striker isn't anything special either but a better option than Drogs

I agree that Torres should start regularly, but I don't think that means Drogba should be laid to rest just yet.

El nino still hasn't convinced me that he WON'T go into another goal-scoring drought. Right now, it has only been two games since he has scored so its a non-issue.

Of course, even if he doesn't score and yet still manages to regularly assist people like Kalou or Sturridge, I wouldn't mind.

Agree lol I didn't mean that torres is now ready to become a goal scoring machine or something like that. But he provides more to the team than Drogba ATM. I'd only play Drogba against arsenal and Liverpool in the prem, he does well against arsenal and Torres will completely flop against Liverpool. Also if we get barca, Drogs will definitely be fired up and he suits the tactics more for those games anyway.

But his attitude in prem games is utter shit and he also doesn't have energy to play them anymore.

Torres is "doing everything but score".

So he cant be our main striker, as simple as that, just use him as a second striker, because a main striker is supposed to score.

He is a better number 10 than Mata is! :lol:

Cech

Ivanovic - Cahill - Luiz - Bertrand

Ramires - McEachran

Willian Torres Sturridge

Cavani
