Fernando Torres

[Tomo 21,751]

£175,000 per week...

I wonder how much we'd save for potential transfers if we sold him this summer. As apposed to seeing his contract out, not sure how long he has left, was it a 6 year deal?

5 and a half and we will seriously struggle to flog him unless he takes a massive wage cut of he goes on loan with us paying the bulk of his wages.

He hasn't scored a goal in 25 games.

We need to get rid of him.

And we will go down as the club who made the most stupid transfer in football history. Instead of buying what we desperately needed (creative midfielder and winger - what we are paying dearly now), we payed 50 mil for a player who didn't fit nor was needed. Coach didn't want him, and our game and players didn't suit him and his limited abilities.

He was desperate to leave Liverpool, what was our excuse?

Clubs make mistakes. Nobody knew he would be this bad.

The only good things to come out of this.

1. Torres helped get us Mata.

2. Liverpool wasted the bulk of the £50m on someone even worse.

Carroll scores goals, Torres may be a better footballer, but we bought him to solely score goals, he has failed in that department, fact is, we are on a 4 game losing streak against Liverpool, i fail to see how we got the better deal

Carroll scores goals,

2 more, wow.

How? both players are struggling for goals just as much as eachother.

To my understanding, both forwards were bought to score goals, you say they got someone worse, when he scored more than Torres as of now? If the CF's intention is to score goals, how did they get someone worse?

Talking about Carroll. How many assists does he have? If to sum up Torres's and Carroll's goals and assists in a year, who wins? I think it's still Torres.

well he needs to contribute more since he was worth more money that AC

in the end Torres suffers for that stupid price tag which is our club's fault... shame he has such weak mentality and that our board is so stupid

The point im trying to make amoungst all others is if we somehow in magical land get Torres's best form we will get a world class forward, if Carroll hits top form at Liverpool they will get a decent run of the mill forward.

Torres is finished, you can see in his football. Pulling a hammy is the worst thing that can happen to a footballer, just look at Pato
