Fernando Torres

[manpe 10,861]

Can't be helped sometimes. Teams will press and force us to go long because they know none of our forward attacking players are good enough to win the ball.

[OT] Yes, but it is something we should be addressing, but we don't seem to have an answer to that. We let our weaknesses be exploited too easily. We're fine as long as teams give us room, as soon as they don't we're trapped. [/OT]

Okay, I'm oficially done with supporting this lad. He is poor and everyone knows it, but some people keep lying to themselves that he is gonna come back and score 35 goals this season. I'm sorry, guys, but he will NEVER be the striker he was and we will not win anything important as long as we rely on him as our main striker. He needs to go to some mid-table club, like Fulham or Liverpool (), but I don't want to see him playing for Chelsea anymore. He doesn't even bother trying to score. He is always passing the ball or trying to cheat.

Totally agreed. Done with him. Time to go Fernando, shut the door on the way out.

The hell with Torres and everyone who keeps defending this guy. Bench him, let him play Carling Cup games etc and play STURRIDGE. In January: sell Torres, even for 10m.

Finally, people have come to realize the problems with Torres!

[Sheva. 5,373]

It was impossible for him to have a good game, he was up against 3 very good defenders, couldn't win anything in the air, so he kept dropping back. At least he helped at times in the middle, but we missed a target man in a game like this.

[Azpinator 2,325]

Goodness me, I think he should permanently change his playing position into a midfielder!

[Cosmin 2,484]

I'm sorry, but isn't Torres actually supposed to have good games against very good defenders?!

[Sheva. 5,373]

If you've watched him over the past 12 months, then you would know the answer to that is no.

[Amblève. 4,995]

It really confuses me how he can't get himself involved. He's neither taking good runs nor is he spacing the pitch to create some space for his teammates. But the worst thing about him is that he's now the only striker we've got since Sturridge is injured...

[Cosmin 2,484]

If you've watched him over the past 12 months, then you would know the answer to that is no.

Well, the answer is YES.

Torres IS supposed to have good games against great defenders, because he is the main striker of the European champions. And as the main striker, he must score or, at least, try. The problem is that he can't have good games against great defenders since he came here. Therefore, again, I think that Torres can fuck right off.

[chelseathebest 150]

We need someone like Drogba - animal who can carry two defenders on his back and win all air duels (exactly what we don't have in Torres...)

[Sheva. 5,373]

Well, the answer is YES.

Not just even great defenders, any type of defenders that are just physical and knock him down once or twice. Very frustrating.

USELESS!

If danny is still injury vs stoke, i would like to try something like this :

------- hazard ------

mata - oscar - moses

-- romeu - ramires --

May be we could give some play time to marin even to piazon

[BOSS 372]

Sturridge> Torres and we should not have loaned Lukaku out

[edetarod 2,155]

i just never get the feeling that he's gonna score a goal...EVER

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

PLEASE!- JUST SELL HIM!
