    Not this one.

    Imagine if Mourinho sorted him out? The old Torres playing ahead of that midfield?

    Aye, he should grow his hair again. Was my favourite striker in the world at his peak with Liverpool. Was just * sensational especially linking up with Gerrard. I look forward to the day he regains confidence fully. He has done alright this season imo but he`s still not the same

    Maybe back to Atletico this summer? Hopefully, would be a very good move for him

    I'm going to be controversial here but was never world class IMO,even in his time at Athletico and Liverpool he needed 3 or 4 chances to score, what I will say in his defence is he never stopped getting in those positions to score but is he up there with the all time greats

    Jaysus, didn`t think it was as much as that. Benitez knows how to work with him but still something missing there. The old Torres could just make something out of nothing

    21 goals isn't bad. But he has played a * load of games, well over 50.

    Not bad but not a great return for a player of his price and what he is capable of, granted that was a few years ago but he has shown signs of that form

    The team has played 69 so I'd say he's probably played 55-60.

    Poor season, pleased to see him show up when he does from time to time but he's not our long term solution.
