Hoddle is a god

Guest
I've lifted this from the gossip pages on the BBC Football website:-


"Former Chelsea defender Frank Leboeuf thinks £50m striker Fernando Torres is not the star player Blues owner Roman Abramovich thought he was buying from Liverpool."



It would appear that he penny has finally dropped.

Discuss.
 
I doubt you'll find many people (except chelsea fans ofcourse) that disagree with Leboeuf. Torres is without a doubt a bigger flop than schevchenko.
 
All joking aside, although, and even allowing for the fact that none of us (Chelsea fans included) would have paid £50 million for him, he's a far greater flop that I would ever have imagined. I can't believe how bad he is! They say that a good player doesn't suddenly become bad over night, but he has proved them all wrong.

Do you think the Russian will give him the rest of the season to prove himself, even if it costs you the title? Or do you think he'll be prepared to write-off £40 million, and try to get shot of him in the January window?

I still keep expecting Torres to suddenly rediscover the fact that he was once considered to be the best striker on the planet, and go on the biggest goal-frenzy the EPL has ever seen.
 
I keep expecting him to start scoring then he never does, like against Norwich where he seemed to disappear. I still think he will go on to score about 9 goals this season though. <ok>

Seriously. It seems every post here now is supporters of other teams starting something new about the Torres topic.

On topic, I was never a fan of the signing even when it was rumors. I'd love for him to come good, though, if only so we can get a bit more selling him on.
 
I reckon if he don't get firing before January were sell him and buy someone else or do that loan deal with milan. I wouldn't say his a bigger flop than shevchenko just yet, he hasn't even been at the club a year yet
 
Until he's had 10 games this season (at the very least) he can't be called a flop.

Sheva was never the 30 goal a season man we thought we were getting but he was never as bad as people made out, his scoring record was average, but not abysmal
 
the fall of Torres has been the most astonishing I have ever seen in top league football in England. With the scousers he was arguably one of the top three strikers in the world. At Chelsea he is not even among the top 10 in England.

Unbelievable!
 
I like the way that when he's old he'll look back over his career and think to himself, my best football days were at Liverpool.
 
He's getting better by the game! The opposition will be running scared of our boy by the end of the of October.
