That's not really true. Yes, he held the ball up well, but he was just sooo slow on the ball. So many times he could have created a chance for someone but was just too slow to release the ball and the opportunity was gone. At least Fernando doesn't do that (anymore).

Torres scores none for Chelsea against Liverpool!

It's not harsh. He's utterly dire. He contributes less than Ba or Torres.

Maybe we could get Drogba back on loan for 6 months....

Never go back, the Drogba era ended with the perfect sendoff. Torres will score goals in the Champions league and cup competitions. I hope at the end of the season we send him back to Spain.

Everyone that supports Torres and our other strikers should check out the video on this link. Neville and Carragher totaly tells the thruth.

Just had a look back at this thread roughly November last year, and it all came flooding back about how angry i was at the Torres situation and quite frankly still am. I thought i have become begrudgingly acceptant of the whole farce, but reading back the thought's i (and other members) had, i am still just as angry and deep down, i always will be.

He moans about not starting the CL final while the rest of the players are getting drunk enjoying the moment, we respond by letting him be #1 forward while letting a hungry forward kick his heels on the bench, he repays us by walking down the tunnel at QPR and saying he didn't care about results. Aswell as looking disinterested almost every game, and worse off all, he gets rewarded by getting the loudest cheer in the stadium every single time along with excuse after excuse made for him and then to top it off i have to hear about how 'hard' he works.

While on the other hand Eto'o, Ba and Sturridge get/got slated for any little thing. Torres has even a good game for his standards and you can't even say anything of any form of critique for about a month without getting a firing squad onto you. All he will have to do today is one decent thing and someone will probably quote this saying "he has proved me wrong", no he aint.

When you factor in the performances aswell as the affect he has had on this club, he for me is the worst player we have had in my lifetime, and bit by bit he wares me down, when Bosingwa and Turnbull left i was relieved, when Torres leaves i will be ecstatic.

If he has a good game today, i will give credit for that isolated game, but in the grand scheme of things it changes nothing, i can't wait until June 2016, and with any luck a nice surprise will come and his departure will come sooner, but i won't hold my breath.

Mourinho's face after Nando missed that goal. It reflects how we feel about all our strikers (although both did well last night imo).

Even Eva is angsty about it, lol.

First time we actually beat Liverpool in the league in 6 games(!) with Torres playing, albeit coming off from the bench...

Emenalo is enjoying it though, hahah

Nando still shows signs that he can recover his fomer self and he is without doubt a confidence player ,if Jose gets Nando firing we can win the lot ?

IF ?

Had an excellent start to the game and deserved the luck he got in the goal. But was very frustrating after the goal. Almost broke Ba's record of offsides!

[The_Flash 1,144]

Had sooo many chances but really worked hard kept at it and got his goal. Happy new year Fernando . Lets keep the goals coming

[Tomo 21,741]

Apart from that ludicrious decision at the end of the first half, when he basically passed the ball to Davis when we had a counter attack on he had a good game today, deserves credit for this. But in the long run, it changes nothing, we still need a new striker and i would bite any club's hand off if they made an offer to sign him.

Torres has more twitter followers than Tottenham (and he has been active only for like a month)!!! Just found out!
And they call themselves a big club!!

[Special Juan 27,616]

Well done on the goal today, performance was fine.

This club needs better, much better though.

[The_Flash 1,144]

He had soooo many chances, noone can deny his workrate. You could really tell he was really trying very hard. If he was old Torres he would have had a hat trick today, was so close. I just wish for Christmas he got some confidence, he can be great again.
