Alternative to Drogba,yes.

The thing is it's easy to just say he is mentaly week, when no one blames chelsea staff in their failure of utilizing both drogba and him, and now a 50 mil striker is getting a bench role or has to play wide with drogba in eventhough they both like to roam in center and have all the space for themselves.
we don't even consider what kinda pressure a player go through in different circumstances. just look at the stats.

or all of sudden he's lost his sense of positioning as if we're talking about Caceres who's been always like that all his career and just started to learn.
A lot of people haven't hesitated in banding around the "world class" tag with Torres, so he's got to be blamed? I've already point out he's starting as the Chelsea centre forward which is his preferred role, so I don't know how he's being coached incorrectly. Ancelotti and Villas Boas should know what he's all about and what he is able to do, and the same goes for Drogba. They can't be telling him to play without making his Liverpool movement, or asking him to go into wider positions. You'd obviously want to play to suit someone that has proved he's a great goal scorer in the division.

Regarding him mentally, it's not even an issue since he joined Chelsea. It's been an issue for nearly 2 years since he picked up the injury before the World Cup, and played through that with some poor performances for Spain. But some of these big misses he's had are quite shocking, confidence has to be a big part of it. I mean, 24 hours since his last goal is stupid.

It's not a case of disliking Torres, it's a case of disliking all these factors that go into the magnitude of the risk Juventus would take with purchasing him. I haven't even mentioned the ridiculous money he's on, which is something Juve simply cannot afford at the moment. It's more than double what Amauri was receiving, and we all know people didn't hesitate to complain at that every year, seeing a significant pay cut would be unlikely (and idealistic). I don't know why it seems ridiculous to some (not blaming you for this) to have major doubts of someone playing as such a shadow of his former self, who will be still remain pricey.

Anyway, the future of these three players interests me the most this summer: Van Persie, Higuaín, Džeko

Real will try to get rid of Higuain and make a move for Neymar IMO. I think he'll leave Madrid and I also think we'll enter the bidding war. If City doesn't join the race I think we have a shot. Dzeko's wages are too huge and I doubt he'll leave City in the summer.

Juve_Kosova, I made a mistake in that line up. On the left it has to be Jovetic.

Hopefully, City will go for RVP. That will leave Higuain with Juve or Inter, and Inter won't play CL next season. So :xfinger:

We might not either at this rate, heh.
:D No! At this rate, we'll probably end up 3rd and still make CL.

I really think we should just spend our money on two world class players in attack. the rest of the squad we can fill up from what we got now and youngsters, this is the way to go.

Higuain would be my dream signing.

I'd be against signing Dzeko, he's no quicker than Matri and Matri is just as good a finisher from what I have seen of Dzeko lately, what we desperately need is an explosive striker in the RVP, Benzema, JoJo, Lavezzi mould. No more lumbering strikers.
