7 - Ferran Torres

[jamrock]

Good movement but terrible shooting.

Give me Chelsea's Morata vibe.

Great comparison

Typical Torres game, great movement, horrible finishing.

If depay came on when he did, we would have scored from open play.

Haha fair claim.

Torres changed game and was about only one that looked like scoring from open play and indeed did.

Prior to it being 2-1.

 

[Tackle]

Liked what he showed tonight apart from finishing obviously.

Not a touchline type winger and is at his worst when isolated out wide like he was too often against Athletic.

 

[fergus90]

He had a very good game, he's going to have a game where his finishing will come together and he'll get about 4.

Then folk will claim opposition defending was shite or write off as not a big game even if gets a couple.

Standard stuff.

 

[jamrock]

Fuck it we're doubling down

 

[delancey]

I came in here expecting you guys to be having a shit fest on Torres? expense. Glad to see he is getting fair feedback as he really is a very skillful player. His positional awareness is A+. Finishing needs to improve obviously. But that could also be said for the entire team today. We looked nervous, out of sync at times!

 

[Barcaman]

He is a shit finisher who has no speed or ability to beat his marker. He is basically useless.
Braith scores more than him per minutes.

 

[malvolio]

As long as we win or someone else brings in the goals people will be easy on him. Otherwise he will be criticized and rightly so.

Beat his marker a few times today, links well, good touch and will score goals.

Changed game when came on and scored but could have got more.

Sounds about right, but that movement though, that movement makes up for it.

 

[JamDav1982]

When he brings elements of goals, assists, work rate and link up play that help team win he will be praised and rightfully so.

 

[JamDav1982]

Sounds about right, but that movement though, that movement makes up for it.

Indeed. When it helps him score goals today and get Barca back in the game. Or when gets last min assist to win another. Will be praised for it.

 

[te amo barca]

Sounds about right, but that movement though, that movement makes up for it.

Fact is he attracts high-quality chances like a magnet whenever he plays. Whenever he is on, the match becomes a compilation of his missed chances Call it movement, or intuition, he has it.

 

[JamDav1982]

He had the most dribbles in team today as well but dont let truth get in way of a good story.
