It's probably been a number of reasons why he hasn't performed to his standard this season. World Cup hangover, constant changes at the club (unsettling to anyone)lack of confidence and poor service. I'm sure there are a few more too.
I don't care what they're on per week players are not machines and if the normal culture of your job (let's not forget it's a job) is being paid 120k a week then it won't even cross most footballers minds that they should be earning it or the fans think they should be doing this or that.
I wouldn't go as far as saying he's back yet, but there were flashes today which made me stand and remember just how good this guy is.
If we get another guy in anywhere near Torres and it works I think we will quickly see the man back as the best in the game.
