I strongly believe that in the first game Benayoun and Torres play together, Fernando will get his first goal. In the 7 games Torres has played for us, the only game where he had serious chances to score was the one versus Copenhagen away, in which he was unlucky. He received no service in the other 6 games.

Totally agree with this, Yossi has a football brain similar to Torres. I just pray that Malouda is the one to make way. I would argue though that he had a fair few chances against Fulham also (Luiz through ball)

TX complimenting Benayoun? I must be dreaming :fainthv9:

But he's right. Made a difference when he came on by providing some good balls and being around to support the man in possession. I don't like him on the wing though if I'm honest, I think he lacks the pace and energy. I'd rather see him play behind the striker(s).

Mikel/Essien

Ramires ---------------------- Lampard

Benayoun

Drogba - Torres

This looks the most suitable on paper. Question is if the team would respond. It also means we'd be less active on the left, but we may as well be with Malouda taking the helm there!

Did some very good things today. Should have got an assist aswell. However I would like to see him against more tight defenses cause by the time he got himself into the game Wigan were chasing the equalizer and left spaces for Benayoun to exploit.

And not play Lampard nor Drogba?

Are you insane

:P

Would love to see this happen, but it would make to much sense, therefore wouldn't happen.

Something different, a Chelsea player ignoring Drogba and only looking for Torres lol. When Al Habsi saved it i shouted at the top of my voice "FOR FUCK SAKE" i want him to score so fucking bad.

Benayoun and Torres have to play on tuesday, these are true Champions League players. We win the game if they play, 100%. WE need to destroy these cunts n shut them up for once and for all.

Even if Torres plays on a wing, he naturally drifts there anyway. Most of his goals have come from out there and cutting in.

If Torres is to score more goals then I think Benayoun is the key. He has by far the best passing ability in the squad IMO. At first I was like many other people- unsure 'why we signed this 30 year old piece of crap- oh look he has played about 5 games and got a 6 month injury' etc but to be honest he is one of my favourite current players. In the games where he has come on as a sub he has changed the game in Torres' favour with his amazing through balls as well as his exceptional work rate. Its a shame hes not younger.

I still don't understand signing him if I'm honest. Yes he's a good technical player but I don't see his role in the squad. The midfield trio of Mikel, Ramires & Lampard is adequate enough without adding a 30-year old who can do the basics right.

If we were looking to sign a "fill in the gap" player, we should've kept Michael Ballack.

^ Agreed. If we were seeking for a player who would just play every now and then, we would have done better to keep either Ballack, Deco or Cole. We wouldn't have had to pay a fee and we would have a player who were already established in the team, who already knew the manager, etc...

To be honest, I think we made a bad mercato. We bought two players we didn't need. Yeah, it's the same think for Ramires, we didn't need his kind of player back then. Granted he became an important player for us.

Maybe rumours which say we buy Benyoun in purpose to lure Torres are true. :whistling:
