Haha brilliant, surely all you can do is laugh...

Can you hear the drums Fernando?

Well done lad!

Man, when was the last time he scored 2 goals, in training?

 

I always thought Atletico has a habit of getting goals out of their strikers, maybe the returning Torres will be another example.

Just proves how sh*t the Spanish league is

Yes, Real is a terrible side really

HE'S BACK!

Let's buys hum.back for 80M

I won't lie, I cheered when he netted his second.

 

He may no longer be our player but I'm god damn happy for him, hope he finds peace with the game again.

Not sure if you peeps follow ESPN FC here in the States, but before the 2nd Match of this Copa Del Rey tie, Craig Burley said he would get a tattoo of Torres if he score vs RM. I guess Burley is now looking for Tattoo parlors in his local area

Just proves how sh*t the Spanish league is

 

no, it just proves that football is quite an unpredictable sport and a player can do well in one team and bad in the other. It seems you forget Torres scored tons of goals with Liverpool and Diego Costa is scoring tons of gols with Chelsea. Does that means the english league is sh*t?

 

I do agree the Spanish League is boring because it´s too unequal, but he scored those 2 goals against Real Madrid... plus spanish teams BESIDES Real Madrid and Barcelona usually do well in the Champions League and Europa League.

Pure happiness at seeing him  in an Atleti shirt and no longer in a Chelsea one.  Good luck and good riddance.

I'm sure Fernando feels absolutely brilliant this morning. Good luck to him.

Just thinking, whilst it's nice to be excited for the guy isn't it possible that he could actually play against us in the CL?

I hope he does.

 

I've seen enough of these moments from Torres to be convinced he is still crap.

In general I'd agree but this wasn't some sh*t team in the league this was the European Champs, fair play to the lad!

 

And they don't exactly have the best defence around. Real Madrid have an amazing attacking line up but defensively they ain't anything special.

C'mon Scott. Look at the facts.

Real had the best defensive record in the UCL last season on goals against per game. This season, they have the second best in the group stage (behind Monaco) ahead of our boys in blue. Also, they currently have the joint second best defense in La Liga (tied with Valencia, behind only barcelona -- atleti is 4th).

Of course, this year's stats could all change very quickly but don't just assume Madrid are poor in defense because they boast supreme attacking talent and score loads of goals.

Do you think he would celebrate if he scores against us?

To be honest, I don't think I'd mind if he did. They are his childhood club

I don't think he would celebrate...especially after all the grief he put us through.

That really was a well taken goal, the little shot dummy before the shot excellent skills....

I don't think he would celebrate...especially after all the grief he put us through.

 

Three years he was with us, we won the Champions League, the Europa League, and the FA Cup. I must say I'm still grieving...

 

I get your point, but it also proves a point that we've been spoiled rotten.

 

 

And no, he wouldn't celebrate. Anyone that has followed his career knows he wouldn't.

I really hope he doesn't get the chance to play against us. Atletico are a very very difficult team. There's more chance of us beating Barca or Real than Atleti. 

 

And that applies for every other team as well. Every top team wants to avoid them.

That was a superb goal and a hell of a great night

Agreed, I wouldn't fancy our chances too much if we ended up against Atletico again.

 

We could still take them but that game later in the season would be a motherf**ker of a fight.

They are a good side but they are definitely weaker this season and we are definitely stronger. I can't see why any Chelsea fan wouldn't think we would beat them. They only just beat us last year.
