I don't think they are similar at all. Amauri was bought with big money and big hopes and he just flat out failed all expectations. Milos on the other hand did perform last season but somehting happened that killed his mojo for us.
If Marotta was half good, he'd do it. Maybe get Drogba as a bonus as well. You have to remember Krasic knows Russian since he played for CSKA and he'd really hit it off with Abramovich.
No to Torres btw. He's been too shit to be considered an elite player lately.
I see some people would want Torres over Matri at the moment. Fuck no. Matri has been the better striker the past 2 years, easily. Torres looks finished.
