Fernando Torres

[magicalbarnes]

Loved the way Alan Hansen was telling it like it is about Torres on MOTD2 last night. Seedorf tried to defend him but Hansen was having none of it.

What was he saying?

What was he saying?

Basically what we all know... that he has been poor for them.

Seedorf tried to defend Torres but Hansen said Torres only touched the ball 4 times in the first half v Citeh and was poor.

I was unsure whether he meant Torres or Hodgson. Torres makes sense.

Carlo does what Roman tells him to do...........Now Carlo who is your Daddy and what does he do!

Not sure if serious, but if you are then, i don't think that's true at all.

Carlo doesn't strike me a manager that does what he's was told and if he was then he wouldn't be taking Torres off nearly every match.

That was some stare Torres gave Carlo when he was coming off.

Yesterday Fernando Torres matched his longest ever goalless streak - he's only gone 8 games without scoring once before, in 2005. #CFC #MCFC

From Skysports:

Torres unfazed by goal drought
Blues striker confident he will soon be back on the scoresheet

Fernando Torres insists he will not allow his quest for a first Chelsea goal to weigh on his mind.

The Spaniard is yet to open his account for the Blues since completing a record-breaking £50million move from Liverpool during the January transfer window.

Having drawn another blank on his last outing against Manchester City, Torres has now gone seven games without a goal for his new employers.

He is confident he will soon break his duck, though, with Chelsea's recent return to form suggesting opportunities will come his way.

For now he is more concerned about helping the Blues stage a late push for the Premier League title, with his own personal targets having to be put to one side.

"I am not anxious about the fact that I haven't scored my first goal for Chelsea," Torres said after linking up with the Spain national side ahead of a Euro 2012 qualifier against Czech Republic on Friday.

"This is an issue for the papers, not for me.

"I am confident that the goal will soon come, but it is more important that Chelsea win than I score."

Torres believes Carlo Ancelotti's side are still capable of defending their top flight title, with just nine points now separating the Blues from leaders Manchester United, while they also have a game in hand.

"I came to Chelsea to win titles and make the most of my career," he said,

"I would not count Chelsea out of the title race in the Premier League. There is still a chance."

The Blues are also chasing European glory in the UEFA Champions League this term and Torres admits he is looking forward to a crunch quarter-final clash with United, even if he would have preferred to have avoided a domestic rival.

"The Champions League game against Manchester United will be hard because they are the worst possible draw," he said.

"The situation is 50/50, though, and we can go through.

"I am a fan of [Sir Alex] Ferguson because he is a coach that fights for victory, like [Pep] Guardiola, [Jose] Mourinho or [Rafa] Benitez.

"It is a delight for any player to work with this kind of coach and feed off their success."

He really cannot say anthing right. ****.
