Hutcho 8,443 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I'd rather Torres. You saw what happened last night when Torres wasn't in the box to defend... Well lets play him in the pivot then with lampard, he could have been playing in the wrong position his whole career lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Torres does still have decent pace, you can't deny that. Doesn't make him a good footballer though. Anyone remember quite recently the Arsenal game where he surged past Vermaelen (who isn't a slouch himself) only to mess it up by completely overrunning it? Again, he does have pace to a certain extent, but it seems like he's completely forgotten how to exploit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robsblubot 3,595 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Torres has pace? He couldn't even get past a 35 year old Ryan Nelsen!Agreed, imo the lack of pace (and acceleration) is the main reason for Torres' ineffectiveness.His low confidence stems from his newfound inability to go past his man.

Hamilton 2,120 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 It will be hard to get atleast a draw over there i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 At the moment, we are point 4 points ahead of Spurs, 5 clear of Everton and 8 ahead of Arsenal. And their games this weekend are:Everton v Aston Villa (sure home win?)Arsenal v Stoke (another sure home win?)West Brom v Tottenham (tricky game for Spurs but West Brom are on a free fall a bit at the moment) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just that. Stoke are extremely average away from home than at the Britannia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham Broadway 17,319 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Chelseas form at the moment is how it was in the 80s and 90s, result could go any way. Win 5-0 or lose 3-2 after being 2-0 up.Not betting on this one ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray 9,441 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Just no. Ba is going to start. We would ruin him to bench him in this game. It would be unforgivable man management by Rafa. really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HNKS 508 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 If the midfield is going to be Lampard/Ramires then we have lost before the game has begun. Hope Luiz is fit, he is much better there than Lampard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stats 7,147 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 We beat Newcastle 3-0 in this fixture last season. All the goalscorers (Drogba, Kalou and Sturridge) are no longer here. The way football quickly moves on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mufassir08 2,400 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Newcastle are now a different team with all their new signings and it will be very tough match but going by our recent record of beating good teams like everton,arsenal etc but throwing away points against the likes of Qpr,soton and reading i think we will win this one.
