After 58 seconds lol.

 

[Zidane98]

Chelsea transfer basically destroyed his career.

 

[chef]

Would love for him to regain some form, but its one game and I wouldn't get too excited just yet. He can tease.

 

[Cruyff14]

Glad to see him scoring again to be honest. I really liked him at Liverpool.

Not Liverpool running his body into the ground?

 

[Bojan KantKick]

Really happy for him, especially after the fan fare he arrived to. Didn't want him to tarnish his rep with Athleti fans. Hopefully he can keep it going.

We let him operate during season 09/10 so he could recuperate for the 2010 WC. Most other clubs would have forced him to delay surgery until the off season.

Besides, he was coming into form shortly before we sold him. There's no doubt that Chelsea the wrong move for him. At the time I thought that he would have joined a Spanish club.

His dip in form had nothing to do with Chelsea, we more than went out of our way trying to get him firing again.

Yes but you do have a tendency to turn good strikers into duds

 

[Bojan KantKick]

Chelsea couldn't have done more for Torres. They gave him plenty of opportunities.

Like Costa and Drogba?

Torres was busted goods when we bought him.

Maybe he's just allergic to plastic?

Sturridge, Shevchenko, Crespo & Kezman say hi.

 

[Rough_Edges]

I'm so happy for Torres.

Not his fault he cost 50m and he was such a brilliant striker.

I reckon he's a likeable bloke.

Good on him.

 

[chef]

OK FAITH.

Sturridge, Shevchenko, Crespo & Kezman say hi.

So do Balo, Borini, Lambert etc

They can't all be winners. Costa and Drogba debunk your theory.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

Don't forget Morientes in his prime

Borini & Lambert were hardly superstar signings. And Balo was bought on the cheap.

Carroll was our only major striker fail but we did get half our money back

Bad memories there

Carroll and Downing, what a way to spend theTorres money

 

[Jatz]

They're both dominating for West Ham haha.

 

[Zidane98]

Carroll and Downing, what a way to spend theTorres money

Shhhhh that never happened. Glad that Carroll has done well at West Ham (when fit).

We only recouped 23m of the 51m spent on Carroll/Downing although that was offset by the 52m profit on Suarez

 

[Cruyff14]

Kezman was never that good and Crespo did alright didn't he?

And Sturridge was played on the wing, so there goes that theory.

 

[Zidane98]

Crespo did well when he played. He ended up getting loans until his contract expired IIRC. Did Chelsea get a transfer fee for him chef?

 

[glenferry23]

Why has Torres' goals turned into another Liverpool vs Chelsea shitfight?

The Real loser here is Real Madrid.

Let's laugh at them.

I will start.

Ha-ha!

 

[Cruyff14]

So really, the names on your list aren't entirely correct.
