RVP's wasn't on the same level but it was very bad.
Yes. Thankfully he missed again. That would have killed us.Anyone else thought that Torres should have scored in the second half rather than taking a touch?
no, I'd rather him not taking shots on our goal.Anyone else thought that Torres should have scored in the second half rather than taking a touch?
Yep. He had two openings to fire a shot.Anyone else thought that Torres should have scored in the second half rather than taking a touch?
Surely there has to be something up with the guy?Torres is the biggest mystery in the world of the football.
Or is this his useless twin or something?
He did get a caution though. Which means he now has more yellow cards for chelsea than he has goals.
I miss the old Torres I suppose, the same way I miss the Fowler of old because we could really do with a top goalscorer up front. No hankering after the current Torres as he is now, nor any 'what could have been' or 'if only' really. It's pretty clear to me that player is well and truly gone. I am just chuffed we got money for him at prime value.
Bet you don't miss him in this form

There are only flashes of the player he wasOne of the ITKs over at RAWK reckoned Liverpool were amazed that Torres passed the CFC medical as, in their view, his legs (or knees...can't recall which) had 'gone'.
I am starting to get mildly hopeful he might grow into a player yet. He's looked good the past few games. Not great, but good enough to make a worthwhile contribution in attack.And spent it on Carroll
I think it's a number of factors:Seriously, I wonder what's the matter with him? Is it that he never got over the last injury? You just don't become a bad player overnight
Newcastle were driving the price. If we decided £35 million was too much for Carroll then Chelsea would never have given us £50 million for Torres, ad infinitum. Anyway that's old covered ground.And spent it on Carroll
and that's why he hasnt been injured sine he moved down to London?One of the ITKs over at RAWK reckoned Liverpool were amazed that Torres passed the CFC medical as, in their view, his legs (or knees...can't recall which) had 'gone'.
Regardless, you still paid hilariously over the odds for him. The fee for Torres is irrelevant.Newcastle were driving the price. If we decided £35 million was too much for Carroll then Chelsea would never have given us £50 million for Torres, ad infinitum. Anyway that's old covered ground.
Carroll on current form and future potential is at least a £15million player which somebody would pay today if we sold him. So we've lost £20 million from that deal (i.e. 35m-15m). Which still puts us £30 million up from the Torres money.

How is Carroll on current form worth £15m? He has been absolutely woeful for you this season. A couple of years ago the club valued him at £1m, and he looked better then. In my opinion, you'd struggle to get anywhere near £10m for him right now. A price near that is based off of name, because to be quite frank, an unheard of player who played like Carroll would struggle to get any decent fee paid for him.Newcastle were driving the price.

Which you then spent in the summer on the likes of Downing, Adam and Henderson and letting Aquilani and Meireles go. You never seem to be more than two or three purchases away from a really great side but then you go and mess it up.Newcastle were driving the price.

which is utter bullshit because his movement is fine. He might not have that explosive pace, but he gets himself in positions to score.One of the ITKs over at RAWK reckoned Liverpool were amazed that Torres passed the CFC medical as, in their view, his legs (or knees...can't recall which) had 'gone'.
I used to think you were one of the worst posters on here. I see now why it's worth keeping you.Newcastle were driving the price. If we decided £35 million was too much for Carroll then Chelsea would never have given us £50 million for Torres, ad infinitum. Anyway that's old covered ground.

Torres went against the medical advice of the Liverpool staff when he rushed himself back from injury to make the world cup.which is utter bullshit because his movement is fine. He might not have that explosive pace, but he gets himself in positions to score.
If it were true, congrats to LFC for destroying yet another young footballers career by continually playing him injured and rushing him back. Owen sends his regards also.
I think only Torres thought that whatever he tried was a good idea.Anyone else thought that Torres should have scored in the second half rather than taking a touch?
Sorry but that's bullshit. Torres doesn't pick himself. It's the job of the manager and medical team to decide if the player is ready.Torres went against the medical advice of the Liverpool staff when he rushed himself back from injury to make the world cup.
He still scored 22 goals in 32 games in the season leading up to the world cup so he had mojo before that.
Torres has no one to blame for his misery than himself.
The worst miss in Chelsea's eight year history.
Noone would pay 15 million for Carroll. You'd be lucky with 8.Newcastle were driving the price. If we decided £35 million was too much for Carroll then Chelsea would never have given us £50 million for Torres, ad infinitum. Anyway that's old covered ground.
