Is he fit again?

Now let's just wait another 3 years till he finds some form

@CarloFan: Fernando Torres has returned to first team training ahead of the game against West Ham. (Chelsea TV) #CFC

Not sure if it's that black and white. Probably important to keep in mind that against Cardiff and Newcastle he wasn't allowed as much space as he had against Schalke. I don't think Torres is at all effective in games where the opposition plays with a low block. Eto'o is more ideal for those kind of games.

On another note, Torres and Schurrle should be played together more often, particularly in big games. They've combined to create some really good goals and also decent chances.

Just regarding that Torres wasn't allowed much space against Newcastle, yes while that maybe true, I don't really buy into it as an excuse or reason for his non-performance then. The City game is an example. He didn't just stick himself between the 2 CBs and instead, was causing havoc by dropping deep and running at defenders, moving out wide where he gets more time and space and was doing the damage from there. But yet against Newcastle, we saw none of that and he was sticking himself against the 2 CBs making it all too easy for his threat (or non-existent threat) to be neutralized and made redundant.

@chelseafc: Jose says Fernando Torres is not quite ready to face West Ham, but Ashley Cole 'is selected'. #CFC

Guess we shall be seeing him midweek

Wouldn't have been a good idea to rush him back into a game against a physical team like West Ham whose CBs would probably kick the shit out of him.. needs to get back to full fitness, with his injury past no point rushing him, thats ultimately why he ended up so fucked in the first place.

Imagine the diffrence if we bought Aguero instead of Torres back then...

Which made it all the more funny when i kept seeing "PL proven" as a reason we should have signed Rooney ahead of Cavani if given the choice.

Imagine the difference if we had bought Ronaldo from Cruziero 20 years ago instead of Mark Stein.

I'd rather imagine we never signed Torres in the first place - a strike force of Kalou and Anelka would have been more productive over the last 3 years.

Jesus, I thought the performance against City bought him some time but the knives are out already after playing while injured against Newcastle.
