Not a knee jerk reaction, but Torres...

[JohnDoe]

is in my opinion the very best and most complete striker in the world.

Think about it, he has absolutely everything, a perfect number 9 that can walk into every top side in the world and improve them today.

I'm struggling to see a better total package than him, maybe Eto'o has the experience edge and is similar in his abilities, but his injuries has put him back somewhat.

I honestly can't rate anyone else higher than Torres and the fact that Rafa has identified him when he was going stale at Atletico after an average season for them, when the flavour of the month at the start of the summer was definitely Tevez, is another good reason why Rafa is the gaffa

He is the man. Certainly went stale at Athletico, but wouldn't anyone who had to carry a mediocre team for so many seasons?

Definatley going to go down in our halls as a historic #9 shirt wearer.

It's an absolutely amazing feeling when you see Torres standing beside Rafa about to come on. Gives you such a confidence that we can go get what we needed. I cant wait to see him in 2 weeks time, reckon he's gonna go on a scoring run up until the new year.

The only reason IMO that he wasnt scoring 20+ goals for Athletico was because he wasn't playing with players of such quality, Stevie G, Mascher, Crouchie,etc. Now he is he will bang them in like he has done so far

Torres is awesome, top player and has all the attributes you need in a top striker. But he is still not as clinical as he could be.

theres certain players who just give off a feeling of being in a class of their own,as stupid as it sounds but its kind of an aura,not just to their own fans but to opposition fans as well,torres is one.

What will happen after that?
