Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Well then I'm a more than a man then. Winter averagely is -19C here with bunch of snow.then you are surely not in Zambia. Back to Torres:2010 World Cup with a couple of futile sub-apppearances and literally not contribution to the team. - World Champion2012 wins Champions League with his only countable contribution in the knock-out stages being an assists vs an unorganized benfica and an unnecessary goal vs Barca when he had only the goalie in front of him - CL winner2012 wins European Championships with one full and two sub appearances scoring two saveable goals vs a depleted Shay Given and Ireland and one after the match is already decided. Wins golden boot because he also assists a 4th goal when he is too chicken to shoot himself and on least minutes needed for the three goals - European Champion and European Golden boot2013 wins Fifa confed cup and golden boot because of 4 goals against Tahiti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Guaje 4 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Celebrating each scored goal against Tahiti as if it were Manchester United. He's had an incredible career with only 2 seasons in which he has sustained a world class label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
different level 1,056 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/arsenal-transfer-news-fernando-torres-2011565Lol, this is the biggest joke ever.Yeah, right... Even though he would be an upgrade to Giroud, Arsenal still can't afford to pay even half his wages. edenhazard17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rising Sun 711 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Guys give the guy a break.Yes he hasnt lived up to what was expected of him at chelsea, but please lets not ridicule and trivialise his entire career.He was world class upto the season in which he signed for us and was murdering teams for a long time.Give credit where due and criticism where due.If he didnt score vs Tahiti, then people would have been on his case. He scored 4 and everyone is still on his case. When a player scores 4 in a game, he deserves a breather.... a few days without Torres-Bashing.

Las7 951 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 LoL who is counting Mata's trophies at National Team level and worships him for the few appearances he makes with Spain, he is worshiped because he has been integral to us winning the CL and being our best player the past season.

Danelka 209 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Guys, guys, I think you misunderstood me, I didn't phrase it very well. The point I was trying to make is that it's interesting to see that how people's attitude towards two player's same achievements are affected by their other performances. Sorry if that wasn't clear.Also, I don't worship Mata because of his trophy collection, there is really no need to put words in my mouth.

This is actually understandable, because Mata is playing exceptionally on club level, while Torres is utter shit most of the time, so people base their opinion on that.I don't think there's anything wrong with that, I just wanted to say that I find this phenomenon interesting. Again, sorry if that wasn't clear for the first time. didierforever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouNameIt 1,511 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Compare this performance to his performance vs the same back 3 at Stamford Bridge last season.He's come a long way since then. Would u rather that an Elephant or bird takes a dump on you? Obviousley the bird because it means less shit.Torres is less shittier than before, definatley hasn't "come a long way" because he scores some goals in EL, Confed cup against Tahiti and whatnot.
