Torres.

Is to be offered around the premiership, quite a fall from grace for a player worth £50 million 4 years ago.
Is he worth a punt?

Sammy has done well with perceived has-beens in the past, so who knows. But I'm happy with our current set of strikers. All of them have the potential to play better, except for Sakho, who probably couldn't play any better than he is now.

On a pay as you play basis @ 9.15ph perhaps.

Yes, I heard this, basically he's free to a good home if you pick up his wages?
I can't see it happening but it is in the MO of Sam to do this kind of deal, a la Youri Djorkaeff & Okocha.
QPR, NAILED ON! I bet Harry is furiously wanking over this as we speak.

so we can have him for nothing as long as we pay his 160k a week wages?
that straight away tells you we can't signing him even if we wanted to

BTW, he's on 60 bags a week so a two year contract is gonna cost you just over £6m plus signing on fee.
If he can get back to form that would be worth a punt for any club, especially when there is competition for places up front. He's only 30, remember the 2008 Euro final, I remember watching him there he was a fucking monster, completely unplayable.

His contract is £3.1m a year, 60 bags, not 160

Re: Torres.

he must be on more then 60 bags a week as he is still on the same contract as the £50 mil deal
Return to Atletico is most likely IMO

I couldn't give a fuck if it was six grand a week. There's a reason Chelsea sent him to Milan and there's a reason Milan now want to send him back.
We certainly don't need him.

We tried to get him on loan when we were in the Championship.
Its as if this guy has forgotten how to play football. He was lethal at Liverpool, probably the best striker in Europe at the time.
I can imagine QPR going for him.

Dunno- to be honest he's looked like an utter donkey since he left Liverpool. Don't know what happened to him. In the space of 2 years went from a world class striker to a bumbling idiot that couldn't trap a bag of cement.
Not sure it's worth us upsetting the apple cart of a decent group of strikers we have who are all playing well and getting decent game time for someone who could be shite.
This has Redknapp or Spurs written all over it.

torres isn't on 60k a week, thats probably the amount milan are contributing to chelsea as a % of his wages.
