So he's giving interviews for the Sun now? I have him in my fantasy team this season... so he'll fail again!
When you bought him and all the hack journos were rubbing their cocks because he wasn't playing well, I told my Chelsea-supporting mate not to worrying, as he would become one of the best strikers in Europe (again) once the squad had properly been set up to accommodate his talents. With a player like Torres, you get the squad to play to his strengths, not the other way round. Mind you, I do believe that it was the fact that the Russian paid so much for him that Torres was not shipped out at the end of his first season. That fact, ironically, will have helped to save the mad Russian from his own impatience, because all Torres needed was time. £50m is too much to spunk up the wall, even for Abramovic.
The Chelsea fans love him and have given him so much support, he is now the main man, we've bought players that will suit him better....Suffice to say, this is a massive season for FT.
****ing these I have never been the most supportive of Torres but as a whole, the fans have stuck by him massively throughout his torrid time here. Still think we need another world class striker in our team, look at our title rivals now - City: Aguero, Tevez, Balotelii, Dzeko United: Rooney, Van Persie, Hernandez, Welbeck, Berbatov Gooners: Giroud, Podolski and probably a replacement for Van Persie Cavani please Roman
The most important part of an abhorrent piece: Torres, 28, admitted Chelsea fans saved his career at Stamford Bridge and kept him strong even more so than his own team-mates. The hitman was so low that he admitted there were times he did not even want to play but the Chelsea fansâ loyalty kept him going. He said: âThe fans helped me a lot â and you donât understand why. âYou come from outside and you have played well in this league and, with the Spanish mentality, the first who should have turned against you are the fans. You are not living up to expectations but they still support you. These people are special. âAt times I was thinking, âI will sit here on the bench, I wonât make any noise, I donât even want to play.â But they are demanding that you jump on the pitch and play. They lifted my spirits so many times. Not even my team-mates succeeded in doing that in this way. Whatever I do from now on will be for the fans. âThat is why I want to win another Champions League. For them.â
