Since joining Chelsea in 2011, Fernando Torres has been in outstanding goal scoring form. In his 2 years, he's averaged 5.5 league goals per calendar year and an almost unbeatable 2.75 league goals per manager. That makes his £50 million price tag look like a snip with the cost of each goal costing a bargain basement £4.5 million. With Torres setting a personal best of 6 league goals last season, level with team mate John Terry, and goal scoring machine Thomas Vermaelen, he's looking to double that this season. Since August, Torres has averaged 1 league goal per month, which puts him level with trivia buster Wayne Routledge, £350,000 Reading striker Adam Le Fondre, Fulham's 4th choice forward Mladen Petric and he's only 2 goals short of Championship legend Rickie Lambert's tally. With the season lasting a further 6 months, and if he can maintain his current form, it would be foolish to suggest Torres couldn't reach double figures this season. 33/1 Torres to be top scorer with Paddy Power.
