warnie_666 1,081 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Torres has played 9 games including Community Sheild and Super Cup and has scored 5 goals. Yet people call him shit. jmarlow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waterfall 893 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 1 in Community Shield that even the FA doesn't take seriously1 vs Reading that shouldn't even have counted because he was offside1 vs Wolves Reserves team who were losing 4-0 at the timePerformance-wise, he was also invisible/terrible against Atletico, Juventus, Stoke, QPR, Wigan and even Wolves today - running into defenders, losing possessions and missing sitters. "It was like playing with 10 men" like Gullit said. 4 to 5 in 9 sounds good, but not really.He was good against Newcastle, but from what we've seen I think it's more likely that goal was fluke.I hope he has another good/flukey game this Saturday, but at the same time I think it's totally justifiable to say that he's been shit. If he was any good last 20 months, I would agree with you that we are being harsh. Liquidator, daBlackMamba7 and We Hate Scouse 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a theory, bravo. Then the goal against Newcastle was a fluke now, again Bravo!I'm not defending Torres for your information and I admit he has been playing bad, but goal is a goal, assist is an assist, you can't just take away his contributions only because you don't like or hate him.

Leif 6,006 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I'd like certain people to ask themselves this - If everything was the same right now, except Torres' price (Let's say we paid £10million for him), would you still be supporting him so strongly (more-so than a lot of our other players it would seem)? Or would you admit that this deal has been probably the worst one in Premier League, perhaps even football history, and admit that he needs to leave for us to improve as a club?Do people not realise that while Hazard, Mata, Oscar etc. all gel properly and build complete chemistry, Torres will be growing older? By the time they're in complete key with eachother, which I think will be around 2 or 3 seasons from now, Torres will be in his 30's.If we keep him until then, we'll then end up selling him for peanuts, buying a new striker, and then that striker will likely need to build chemistry with the trio mentioned, causing the club to stagnate yet again. No good can come from keeping Torres and chanting his name at Stamford Bridge every game more than Drogba was ever chanted or more than Terry ever gets chanted.

At most it'll take 2 seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
