Fernando Torres

Recommended Posts

All reasons aside, it still infuriates me the number of times he loses the ball on the break or touches it into a defender and the attack falls apart.

But to be fair, we were all probably a bit spoiled with Drogba's beastly hold up play for so many years...and wrong to expect Torres to play the same way.

It would be nice if we stopped hucking the ball into box from 40 yards out tho...on every other possession. Drogba's not there, David Luiz, no ones going to get that ball.

Exactly. Long hoof balls by Cech and others infuriate me, because as soon as I see it leavinig the boot, I know we will lose possession.

Can't be helped sometimes. Teams will press and force us to go long because they know none of our forward attacking players are good enough to win the ball.

[OT] Yes, but it is something we should be addressing, but we don't seem to have an answer to that. We let our weaknesses be exploited too easily. We're fine as long as teams give us room, as soon as they don't we're trapped. [/OT]

Okay, I'm oficially done with supporting this lad. He is poor and everyone knows it, but some people keep lying to themselves that he is gonna come back and score 35 goals this season. I'm sorry, guys, but he will NEVER be the striker he was and we will not win anything important as long as we rely on him as our main striker. He needs to go to some mid-table club, like Fulham or Liverpool (:Goober:), but I don't want to see him playing for Chelsea anymore. He doesn't even bother trying to score. He is always passing the ball or trying to cheat.

It really confuses me how he can't get himself involved. He's neither taking good runs nor is he spacing the pitch to create some space for his teammates. But the worst thing about him is that he's now the only striker we've got since Sturridge is injured...

If you've watched him over the past 12 months, then you would know the answer to that is no.

Well, the answer is YES.

Torres IS supposed to have good games against great defenders, because he is the main striker of the European champions. And as the main striker, he must score or, at least, try. The problem is that he can't have good games against great defenders since he came here. Therefore, again, I think that Torres can fuck right off.
