Some day, in the far off distant mists of the future, aliens will exhume the bones of Fernando Torres. They will conduct extensive retrospective genetic analysis and they will finally be able to determine what exotic psychotropic virus invaded the mind of this once great striker. I cannot recall a drop in form so extreme, so prolonged and so damaging ever happening to a similarly talented player.
Fernando Torres, wake up sir! Join the world of the living again and put that ball in the back of the net where it belongs!
