Even the best players have dips in their careers but I'm beginning to wonder if he'll ever be the player he once was. Confidence is shot to bits. Think the best thing for Chelsea to do is to send him out on loan to another London club a couple of divisions below that play in SE7 for the rest of the season, just to allow him to re-discover his scoring touch and find his mojo again.
why because that aint funny masicat is it, and seeing as this is a charlton forum who gives 2 shits about players with no connection to us playiing well
Again I'm sure we will be reading columns from ex pros saying "you don't turn into a bad player overnight" etc. Thing is this isn't overnight, he has been poor for a couple of years now.
I don't doubt he has been playing slightly better at the start of this season but it seems his confidence is so low, for example the goal he set up the other night against Bayer, yes he was unselfish but the Torres we saw when he first came over would have had the confidence/arrogance to take that shot on and probably score. That summed him all up for me.
He is a good player, no doubt about it...but his confidence is so low and having a £50m pricetag on your head won't help....I actually felt sorry for him...

unreal
berb had a nice fluff of a shot as well at the end
but torres's was a top drawer miss
He even missed putting his head in his hands ....he did have a good game tho ......
Because he missed an open goal....
I was watching the game at home, live , and when he missed it I turned to my son (aged 8) and said........
" Torres cost £50m and can miss an open goal and I moan when Benson who cost £250,000 misses one...........never again will I boo him when he does"
I just hope some of our "fans" take note !!
I missed one like that on Friday in 5-a-side.
But then I'm a terrible footballer.
In some ways I found Rooney's penalty funnier - it got better with every different camera.
Great game of football though!
