The Fulham boss reiterated that the new Chelsea manager is perhaps the only person who can get the Spaniard back to his old form, but admitted that he was hoping it would happen after his side’s encounter at Stamford Bridge.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Torres-c13707 has become a lost cause for most coaches, as he now struggles to find the back of the net.
Carlo Ancelotti, Andre Villas-Boas and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294 Di Matteo all have tried to get the striker back to his goal scoring ways, but no one has managed to succeed, with the forward becoming the butt of jokes everywhere.
However, if someone can turn around the Spanish International’s sagging fortunes, its former mentor, Rafa Benitez, who recently took charge of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 after Di Matteo’s departure.
The one-time Liverpool boss took the La Roja star to new heights at Anfield, cementing his world-class status after some inspired wins in both domestic and European fronts.
While he faces a tough task in bringing consistent glory to the Blues, he may get Torres back on the right track according to Martin Jol, who hopes that it can be after his side’s visit to the current UEFA Champions League title holders.
Speaking to reporters, the tactician claimed that Benitez was the only one capable of reviving the former Atletico Madrid man, as he had done so emphatically during their time together on Merseyside.
“If Rafa Benitez will get it out of him, and he's the man who should be able get the confidence in the boy again and, if he does that I think he will score goals, because he always could score goals.”
Continuing, the Dutch trainer added that Torres was perhaps suffering because he was short of confidence, as he still had quality, but was struggling to replicate that on the field.
“You have to look at the stats, you have to look at his fitness, you have to look at his past performances and if you look at the goals he scored, for example at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809, you can only come to the conclusion that there are a lot of goals in him so I think
it has a lot to do with confidence.”
