Mourinho on picking Schurrle over Torres...

http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/european/psg-3-chelsea-1-jose-mourinho-laments-his-lack-of-real-strikers-after-starting-andre-schurrle-in-place-of-fernando-torres-and-demba-ba-9234075.html

“I'm not happy with my strikers' performances so I have to try things. And with Andre at least I know we have one more player to have the ball, one more player to associate with the other players, and even not being dangerous because he's not a striker, he can associate and the team can have control of the ball possession like we had. But football is not just about that. It’s also about scoring goals, getting behind, and that is for strikers. Real strikers. And I had to try.”

Its not his fault Mourinho loaned out Lukaku, he knows his terrible and unwanted and just goes out there for his contractual obligations thus does not give any passion.

It was Lukakus own decision to be loaned out.

Has to be our worst striker in the last 2 decades.

Sheva was average, Pizzaro was dreadful, Torres is anonymous.

Anonymous is a generous description. I don't want to be mean and all but we probably need to think of the harshest word ever to label Torres. He's just beyond useless, shocking, appalling, abysmal, dismal. In fact, not even sure if there is word in the English word can genuinely describe him right now!

The sad thing is he was this bad from his very first game in a Chelsea shirt. His debut was one of the worst performances I've ever seen from a Chelsea player. It's been 3 years of utter shit, it's just relentless.

No. Game after game he is getting worse. In the beginning of the season, at least the desire to help the team was there, and he had some vintage performances (City and Spurs). But right now the is a dead man walking.

His game against Crystal was the worst of his Chelsea career, before that he was horrendous against Villa, and now his 2nd half display was the worst one ever by any player in UCL history.

Mourinho should forget about him. Etoo is injured? Give Ba some game time. Torres should not even make the squad list of the day until he leave the club for good.

Fernando was not the one who let in an easy chance from the near post go in, his not the one who failed to take a cross like a proper WC keeper who hv done for the 2nd goal. His been terrible but dont try and pin our short comings on him

No. It was Mourinho's. It is ridiculous that people state Lukaku made the choice. Mourinho obviously could not guarantee him game time ahead of Torres and Eto'o and because Ba stayed he decided to grant him a loan which has cost us now when you think about it. Some of the biggest clubs would love to have Hazard. If PSG or Real bid for Hazard in the summer and he states he wants to go will it happen at a heartbeat? No, because Mourinho sees him as a key player and in the end of the day makes the decision. So in the end it was Mourinho's decision, not Lukaku's. Lukaku is the footballer, Mourinho is the manager!
