Las7 951 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 For 20mio or what? While those 30 will just dissapear? Get a proper creative midfielder and he is back.You do realize we are paying him around 8 million pounds per season in wages. If he doesn't find form next season he would be virtually unsaleable - right now we can blame lack of balance; tempo; lack of creative players; lack of accommodation; players not passing to him - but lets say he fails even if we change the whole system just for this one guy. What exactly happens than - he collects his check for another 3 years or we let him go on a free just to free ourselves from his wages.The only way I'd be happy to see Torres in the squad next season is if his wages match his contribution to the squad - from his current season I don't think he should be anywhere near the top earners in the club, same can be said about Lamps and Drogba but most people expect Drogba to be on his way out at the end of the season. To me a lot that has been said are excuses, he played with Spain with virtually the best midfield in the World of the last decade and he wasn't exactly setting the World on fire. His stature in World Football is still enough for us to reclaim half of his transfer fee but if he continues on with his inability to regularly score goals and we buy another striker in the summer we could end up with the most expensive substitute player in the World.

Amblève. 4,995 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 For 20mio or what? While those 30 will just dissapear? Get a proper creative midfielder and he is back.I'd be happy if Chelsea got 20m for selling him... as for the rest of the money Chelsea paid, Torres fucked it up too, not just the lack of creativity. Look at all the misses he had since joining Chelsea. If he had converted those chances into goals he would not have scored just 4 PL goals for Chelsea. Somebody posted an article on Torres' off-ball movement here a few weeks or months ago, where his abysmal movement is being described very well.

ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I still believe he will come good in the goals department. Especially if we get pace into this side next season as well as a bit more creativity tmessy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 12,049 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 He should stop trying to score goals and just score goals. It's so simple, gosh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nando 106 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 He should try to score goals instead of always play for the team. Being selfish to a certain degree is essential for the success of any striker. Fernando is no exception. I say encourage him to take long shots and to finish with one touch in the box. Also, his teammates in attack should not make desperate faces when he goes for goal individually, but should follow his attitude: when someone tries, encourage him and make some sign of approval.

Madmax 9,219 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 That's pretty simple to explain -Torres - EURO winner, a WC winner, was one of the deadliest strikers in world football till 2 years ago and a blonde bombshell to boot.Carroll - Er .. ponytailed beer drinker famous for being er ... a £35m flop. nullabletype 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kojo 4,676 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Andy Caroll Vs Torres?, no comparisson, sorry but Caroll is the most one dimensional forward in the world, he might of gotten 30 goals a season about 50 years ago but not now in this tactical game. At Newcastle all he scored was sweaty goals, he cannot even contribute to the team, he's below average when it comes to technical abillity, at least Torres gets a hand full of assists and takes on players and contains flair. Carroll can only score headers and what have ya, oh yeah and who can forget his great flick ons. Such a brilliant player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Performances like today aren't gonna help him or us, he was disastrous today, only did well nicking the ball back but attacking wise was cringe worthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
