Attention - those who argued with me...

[Legod Third Coming]

Rickie Lambert v Fernando Torres.

 

Don't like to say I told you so.

 

But come on here and tell me now how you would rather have the Spanish waif than

 

THE TOP ENGLISH STRIKER IN THE PREMIERSHIP.

 

Any time, I'll be up for another hour or two celebrating...

Slightly different three years down the line. Torres has only gone downhill since then...

[Smirking_Saint]

I would still take the younger, quicker and frankly better Torres

I'll take that as an apology

Returning from the match....... I would say that Torres' problem is that his style of play is not matched to his team. Lambert's is very well matched. I would say the same of Demba Ba.

 

When a player (especially a striker) has a style that fits his team then: Bingo

 

Otherwise....... Drongo!!!!

Would still take the torres of three years ago over the Lambert of three years ago. I am in a good mood though after the draw.

On a slightly more serious note, what impresses me about SRL (bias aside) is that he isn't quick but his brain is - I wondered whether he could cut it in the Championship, and here he is holding the ball up and beating Champions' League winning defences with his aerial ability. He is a class act. Shame we didn't get him five years sooner!!

I still think Torres would be back to his best in any other team apart from Chelsea.

[Noodles34]

80/1 each way (1234) £5. Happy at the moment, where is he in the league scorers?

[Saint Scott]

This seems fitting for this thread...

St Mary's Stadium & #SaintsFC's starting line-up tonight put together comes to less than the £50million #CFC spent on Fernando Torres.

nah, he's had it

[Smirking_Saint]

nah, he's had it

 

Big fee, injuries and a poor start, its in his head now. He needs to do himself a favour and move on, he will get it back, but too many deamons are in his head in the PL

Defoe has 10 goals in the prem as well

[Legod Third Coming]

Pah! You can't count Defoe - he gets the rebounds from Bale's shots

[niceandfriendly]

Anyone want to tweet Matt Le Tiss to tell him to remind that pillock Merson on Soccer Saturday about his prediction that Lambert wouldn't score 10 this season? Would be funny to see, although he'd probably just say they were all lucky or he will claim penalties don't count.
