thundyr raised this point pages ago: Lone striker, fast/direct build-up, balls he can run onto; only Liverpool played that way. But, do we play like that [i]now[i]? I mean even though we have Carroll, it doesn't seem like our play relies on a single fast striker now nearly as much as it did. Even if things hadn't gone down the way they did, is this the type of system that a player like Torres could accurately participate in? Granted, I'm not remotely entertaining the idea of bringing him back. I just noticed that remark and it made me curious what people thought.

Granted, I'm not remotely entertaining the idea of bringing him back. I just noticed that remark and it made me curious what people thought. It's important to realize that we've changed our style of play primarily because we have Carroll rather than Torres; completely different forwards. Suarez looks like the kind of player who can adapt to any style because he is a creator first and a finisher second, so there's no doubt that he and Torres would compliment each other FAR better than Torres and any single player in the entire Chelsea squad, because players like Lampard would rather shoot than pass (and he's hardly the worst offender in this regard). Consider the goals that Suarez has assists for, and you'll know that Torres would have been the man to put it away in each case (just as he did twice at Wolves). He's no quicker than anyone over the first 5 yards, but give him a running start... Watch that first goal at Wolves again, and tell me he's slow when he cracks on the pace to race into the box. He's not been injured since then, so how can he be slower? At Chelsea he always gets the ball either with his back to goal or when he's practically standing still, and always because they've taken a week to get the ball into the final third (just like with Spain). He's up Sh!t Creek without a paddle.

Suarez scored 111 goals in 159 games for Ajax; - that tells me he's a finisher first and foremost.....unless he also contributed with 120, 130+ assists, which I doubt very much.

Torres is still classy...would like to see him back just like Ian Rush. But I feel it is quite impossible because his relationship with Liverpool FC has broken...
If he is going, getting back to At. Madrid would be a good move for him.

Suarez can play as an out & out striker and get you goals. The problem is that he's that good in terms of overall ability that you are limiting his game if he stays up top. Players with this amount of talent need the license to drift all over the pitch and do damage. He's intelligent and knows where and when to run & pass. Wonderful player to watch.

Torres surely regrets his move. But i think he will be back to his best next season. Drogba will be gone and possibly Anelka, So Torres will spearhead the attack. And mainly he will only be used as a bit part till the end of the season, probably never play a full game, then he will have a full summer of rest for the first time since 2007, so he will be firing on all cylinders.
But we have Suarez and Carroll, plus am sure we will bring in another talented and exciting young striker.
Do we want Torres back NOPE, NOT AT ALL
