Fernando Torres

[magicrico 175]

Are Malaga still interested?

I hope so. Whats the team Eto went to? Surely they have cash to waste. We need a goal scorer. He has had his chances. His attitude is dogshit. Get someone decent in who only knows one thing...Notching.

Is there a way to filter out all the posts about Torres? Seriously the more people talk about him the less I care.

[Beast 85]

Why do you come onto a Torres thread and expect people to talk about things other than Torres?

[Kostas 1,468]

Who knows maybe I'm possessed?

[DanAdibi! 106]

I'm really starting to loose my patients with him.

We need to wake up and admit he was a flop signing.

[Kez 2,727]

I don't think he should be judged as a flop or not until the end of the season.

Just please, the hype around Torres is killing me! Just forget about him. He is a Chelsea player just as the rest 24 guys...

It is not good that the first word that comes to everybody's mouth when they hear Chelsea is TORRES! He's in bad form and that's it. Rooney was too, but look at him now. Perhaps Torres will be the same, perhaps he won't. Whatever happens, we have Lukaku and Sturridge.

I'm afraid hes finished... although I do not hope so. He clearly made his goals by himself in the liverpool shirt, and not many of his goals came from great passes. Sad to say, but he really isn't the same as before...

I hope he proves me wrong

Just look at his touch and speed.

I sure he will prove you wrong mate!

And i have to say he gets loads of good passes from gerrard(i hate him but he can pass the ball)

[ZanSnake 1,211]

I'll wait till he has actually spent more then half a season here before considering him a flop

[Guest justin_3d]

Torres biggest game of the season so far will be against United.

He has to step up. He was born for this. He train for this.

He can do it!

No more mess up. It is time!

True and mata and mereiles will get the best out of him!

What i cant understand is why malouda never passes the ball to him!!

Of course his touch looks good in the video, they're all before he scores. Where's the video when he has a bad touch and doesn't score? He had those moments and days for Liverpool too. He's always, always had an inconsistent first touch. It's why he's struggled with tika taka Spain ("struggle" in relative terms, good enough to get 88 caps for the best national team of the last half decade) and he's always the first to be subbed. If Spain need or want to control a game, they take him off.

If and when Torres comes good for Chelsea, he'll still have the inconsistent first touch. He's always been that way. I've said this before the long, long slump...if Torres had a world class first touch, he would be up there with Messi and Ronaldo because he is or was in 2007-09 so physically gifted. Even then with an iffy first touch, he was one of the top 5-10 players in the world.

[Hysteria 159]

If he does good against a big team like United...we might come back to his best form.

[bababoom 4,478]

After watching that video it's quite sad to see how much Torres has changed.

I think i can no longer make excuses for him, we blame the midfield, but he got dropped from Spain, and they have one of the best midfield's in the world. I just don't know, i hope he can regain his old form, but a part me just thinks he wont.

[Sheva. 5,373]

He has not played well since Stoke, and has actually gotten worse in every game since then.

But i will not make any judgement till he plays a couple games - and not for fucking 10 mins - with Mata, Meireles and Sturridge (first 2 especially)

If after that he's still crap, then we better cut our losses and get rid of him in January.

[St Abramovich 175]

You could blame the midfield but now I have to admit, it is down to him, his confidence looks shattered.

Torres would never have attempted that cheeky back-heel like Sturridge did, I wish he had Sturridge's "I'ma show you how great I am" attitude.
