Why do people want Torres so badly?
He's not a goalscorer.
We already have two "providers" in Kuyt and Bellamy. We now need to add a world class finisher of chances to our team. Although his goalscoring record isn't that bad, that isn't his game.

If we're looking for a goalscorer, Torres is NOT the man.
He is a long way off 'prolific'.
20 in all comps in one season - has he ever managed it? Dont think so.
Good player, lots of potential but not the solution right now.

Although I think they'll be happy to take that back. Remember Nic bigging Torres up though before the transfer, I had some doubts but was also excited, he probably surpassed all our hopes.
