Well he had no run up and felt he had to poke it into the side, he couldn't generate power for even a finesse finish. But I do agree he should've buried it
People are leaping on to the "Torres cannot finish" bandwagon, but I thought Juan Mata's finishing was way worse. Even Ramires and Meireles were missing good chances
True that, no off ball movement only in second half for 30 min did they show any life. No one looks like the want to make a run or receive the ball. So much talent standing around watching the ball, no one expecting the ball to be passed to them, even in shallow mid and defence. I don't understand how so much talent and experience can fall so short of expectations. OMG I live in the Boston Mass viewing area. It is exactly like the Red Sox. They have no real club leader and no one is willing to step up and lead. John Terry.... Make it happen
Mata has been an outstanding player overall in his first season, has scored some really good goals too. I guess that's why people forgive him for one bad game. Same with Ramires, they've been our key players
I agree Lukaku should be given a chance. Hopefully Torres will start scoring goals, but for now Lukaku looks more threatening. I know he's only 18 & for the future but Chelsea needs goals badly & the sooner Lukaku starts geting more minutes on the pitch the better. We need more options and it might be a good idea to try him, alongside Sturridge & Mata
Torres is a joke, why do fans still have faith in him? Honestly I can't think of a reason why you all give him a second chance, , chealsea is better of with out him, sturridge, drogba, are much better
Torres is still a great player, he just unlucky and not finishing, he needs to be in the right spot in the right time, and want to score, like today that miss he had to finish that, I still love him and have hope
Torres is a great player noone can deny that. I think his confidence is shot and he has been overthinking everything he does on the pitch, because he is still under immense pressure to justify his 50mil pricetag. It takes only the best of the best to overcome that pressure
I woke up for most of game, and I can say I'm very very disappointed with the result, I give credit to Norwich keeper as he made a good amount of saves which was nice for them and home side, but Chelsea should have finished more I mean I love Torres and always hope he will score and stuff, but I mean that miss in front of net! I just wish he put them in back of net for those chances, we all know he can and he does amazing stuff, just unlucky and sad, I little mad for that, same for rest of Chelsea we needed finish, Mata should have scored too, but it really too bad Chelsea as we dropped 2 points and not happy oh well
Yeah even if torres scores, that doesn't mean flood gates will open. I think chelsea's lack of creativity and lack of decent crosses doesn't hlp torres in scoring. Even one of the commentators in this game, said if torres played for manu, his goal tally would be in double figures by now
Letter to Torres! Dear Torres, Chelsea is just a team name like, liverpool. Do not put stress for what you have to do for club, just do your job by enjoying it
My goodness, poor Torres again! Ruddy was fantastic with the first save, it was kinda funny too see him about to go off and celebrate, only for Ruddy to deny him with his fingertips. The second one was the sort that Torres really should've scored easily. Juan Mata had a couple of shockers too, arguably as worse as Torres.
I think it's going to be another match where Torres will come under heavy scrutiny, and for that I feel sorry for him. He's a striker with great skill (such as what was shown against Sunderland last match) but is just not getting consistent yet. Hopefully he will, I hope so at any rate - and yes, that's coming from a Liverpool supporter
I'm sorry, but if you're going to receive such a ridiculous sum of money then there will be expected results immediately, or at least within half a season. We are now one year into this deal and he hasn't shown the slightest bit of light. Yea adjusting is understandable, but how much time does a 50mill super star need to "adjust" from wearing a red kit to a blue kit?
Ronaldo is obv another big money transfer to RM and he lived up to his expectation within days.
