Fernando Torres

Correction:

You can't play a through ball to a striker who doesn't move.

why would he move when he knows he wont get the ball ?

why would he move when he knows he wont get the ball ?

Are you really suggesting that he should go out there and stand still?

He is an idiot if he knows that, no one can predict the future because it doesn't exist. The only thing worth worrying about is the present.

We paid 32 Million for Hazard and 25M or something for Oscar . If they wont create any chances , why do you expect the striker to score ? FUCKLOGIC

YOU ARE A TORRES FAN BOY.. STOP STICKING UP FOR HIM.. ITS HARD FOR OSCAR AND HAZARD TO FIND FLOPPES IF HE WON'T MOVE... FUCK SAKE.

Their are like so many times , Torres has played a quick 1 2 pass with a midfielder , and made the forward run , thinking he will get the ball , but what do our midfielders do ? they passes it back or sideways . It's freaking easy to blame Torres on everything , when we lose its Torres fault ? When we concede a cheeky goal it's Torres fault . Sometimes your biased comments make me think 9/11 could be Torres fault , 7/7 could be torres fault

Can we move the Torres discussions to the Torres thread? At least there people can just avoid the thread if they don't feel like reading shit.

Unfortunately everything about this club right now is linked to Torres.

The defensive issues, the managerial issues, the goals issues, our transfer issues....I've never known our club to have been so fucked by one player. Even with Shevchenko, we still coped because other players stepped up.

Now it's not just other players not stepping up, it's other players being denied the opportunity to step up.

The Champions League win and his amazing corner-winning exploits have papered over too many cracks. The sooner he leaves, the better.

Hasn't every goal Torres has scored for us cost 4.94 Million or something?

Wow. just wow.

Cock.

would have been cheaper to try the Italian method and bribe a few defenders

[LayZ 201]

To be perfectly honest it's not like he's missing sitters every week is he?We are shit at creating chances and have been for a while...we have 3 insanely creative players behind him,yet offer hardly any offensive threats against teams like Fulham...we can't expect Premier League defenders to part like the red sea out of sheer reverence for Mazacar in every game...

[Kieran. 6,317]

So foolish of me to expect Torres to actually repay some of the 50m this season. Stupid, stupid me.

[Ljpaddock 187]

I think people are being a bit harsh here, yes Torres hasn't been anywhere good enough. But on the other hand all the delivery to him is either shite, or he gets ignored. I thought he looked hungry against Fulham, closed down the defenders well. And I can only think of one decent ball into him from Romeu that he took on his chest and was unlucky not to get something when it hit riise arm after him not knowing wtf was going on. All the crosses were atrocious and hazard mata and Oscar don't release the ball early instead they go sideways making a slow buildup till they're on the edge of the box then sideways some more until either theres no space to operate behind the defence or ramires gets hold of it and shanks it up onto the roof of the stadium. People are hating on Torres jumping on the media bandwagon when he's not the only one to blame. He started of fairly well this season, shame clattenburg and fergie fucked our momentum
