Fernando Torres, Chelsea’s new Champion
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Torres-c13707 was being heavily criticized until last Saturday for losing his acceleration and his deadly instinct in front of goal, his strengths that used to frighten the opponent. Furthermore, with the sizeable price tag of £50 million, he was struggling
to score. He merely seemed the shadow of the player who was once known as one of the world’s best strikers.
However, this mocking and humiliation ended after 14 games and 730 minutes on Saturday with a great left-footed strike against West-Ham, remindful of his Liverpool days. That one goal was enough to remind why Torres is considered to be an outstanding player.
The goal showed all his skills which people thought that the Spaniard had left in the Merseyside. This goal was such that even an earnest Arsenal fan, who in a normal scenario would’ve taken it as an opportunity to fling away the remote over a Chelsea goal,
rejoiced over this great shot and Torres’ comeback.
Ever since he moved to London, most people have been apprehensive about Torres’ ability to align with the Chelsea style, an immense contrast to that of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809, but this goal was a declaration that he has embraced Chelsea and is good to go with the Blues.
It brought relief to the Spaniard’s face as this goal was well awaited, not only by him but also the team, thus, they all celebrated as one. This success would not only boost his confidence and lighten the burden of the heavy price tag over his shoulder,
but also remove the spotlight on him due to his goal drought and stimulate the scoring image of the striker that Chelsea fans had been waiting for.
This can mark the beginning of his successful career in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 and make him a top notch hero and lead him to become a Chelsea legend. Considerable amount of credit should be given to the Chelsea fans that supported the striker and cheered for him every
time he stepped in the field. They kept their hopes alive and did not abandon or boo him which could have happened.
Finally, in the match against West Ham, the patience and support of former Liverpool striker paid off. He tactically sneaked into the opponents’ back-line and even though chances of a goal seem grim, he turned the game around and struck his shot beautifully.
This rebuilds the confidence on his talent which was in doubt for some time.
It was proof of the fact that Torres was just having a difficult time to adapt to the change but now this success has opened up his ways and Chelsea devotees can expect more from this great achiever. Torres should consider this a blessing and use it as an
ego boost to further polish his skills as being a part of this team and prosper to new heights.
It is hoped after media speculation that this goal might turn out to be the starting point of his career as a Chelsea striker and also restore his confidence, lacking in the past few matches.
