Fernando Torres

Recommended Posts

Moan Moan Moan Moan. Why does it matter how much we paid for him? It's clear Roman isn't exactly hurting financially because he spent a lot of money to bring Torres here. I genuinely believe some fans hold a grudge against him because they were so excited when he signed and it didn't work out. He is not exempt for criticism, and I have been on his back on multiple occasions since he signed for uninterested performances but when he is scoring it just seems to get worse. You get the 'pub team' comments which are ludicrous - you can only score against the team in front of you - and comments about how bad it is that he is scoring because the board won't sell him which is basically wishing poor form on him. It's certainly no coincidence that these commenters are arm chair fans, usually under 17-18 who have grown up to be spoilt with success and legends like Drogba, Nico etc. Torres is a Chelsea Player, both he and some of our fans should act like it more often, recently he's been holding up his end of that bargain and maybe it's time for some posters to do the same.

5 goals in 3 games :readthemessage: LOL what do you want more ? Give him some more time under Rafa , he might get back to his best :rolleyes:

Five goals in three games is great but 19 goals in the 90 games before that is embarrassing and there's absolutely no fucking way I'm getting my hopes up after a couple of decent games against shit opponents. How many times in the past have we said the words "let's give him a bit more time, he might soon be back to his best" and every single time he has failed us?

In the past I've been overly happy whenever Torres scored a goal but now I'm getting mixed feelings about his recent good run of form because it has come just before the transfer window when it was looking certain we're going to replace him but now the board must be wondering the same thing as you. If they fall for this trap again and Nando lets us down big time, I simply have no words left.

I agree that His stats are poor and he has a not performed to his level last year but the scenario is different this time , we have a manager who is trying to change the system to help him and it's working , before that he was forced to play in that specific Drogba role and though we found out in his first 5 apps , it aint going to work , but we kept pushing him to adjust himself , and he tried but he's not muscular enough for that role and holding the ball has never been his strong side so he failed . And your argument that he's only scoring against the weaker teams , LOL WHAT ABOUT MESSI AND FALCAO ? They play in the easiest league in the whole planet <_<

I really can't be asked to get back into this argument as it is a bit like arguing against a brick wall with a massive i love Fernando on it... But that argument is Awful...

Firstly, its hardly the weakest league on the whole planet.

Secondly:

229 (192) Messi at barca... He even got 13 goals in march 2012 alone lol.

48 (40) Falcao at atletico, not including his 41 in 50 at porto

91 (22) Fernando with us.

Now thats a big difference. Yes he is on form and if he can keep that going then that will be great for us, but i mean the argument is not even close even if we were to believe that messi and falcao play in the easiest league in the world.

La Liga wont be the easiest league in the world but it is 50x easier than the Premier League.And scoring against Malaga , Zaragoza , Levante , Deportivo etc doesnt makes you WORLD CLASS . And it's funny how you showed their goals with different clubs but didnt showed Fernando's goal tally with Liverpool . Nando has scored 81 goals in 141 matches with Liverpool in the most competitive League in the world . That actually proves we didnt utilised him rightly , Chelsea's staff has to get the blame with Fernando for his failure .
