I put this in the Hodgson thread, just copying in in here.....
I can understand a new manager coming in will affect a players performance in different ways but again ill go back to the point that a world class forward, no matter who the manger is or where in the world he is playing should be putting away the chance Torres has missed recently. It may be that Roys tactics dont suit Torres but its not as if he was to hot at times last year and we all now what happened at the World cup, albeit he was injured.
Where is the Torres from three years ago? If its a confidence thing then fair enough. He needs to get is sorted it might have something to do with the World Cup, who knows. But we cant afford to be carrying passengers no matter who they are and at the moment I would rather have Babel in the team and i NEVER though Id say that!
No doubt he will score a hatrick next weekend but I like you will not be fooled by it until we see some consistency. His link up play and general performance all season had been poor.
Im sorry but at the moment he is not good enough. Sub bench.
