Yeah, and where is anyway the Real-series? it has been in a break for a long time :(

Well our players did karting, but that's all. I wish we could get some funny shows :)
The "Real" series has gone through the players that speak Spanish the best. They're waiting on the other players for a bit. They want them to speak Spanish better.

As for the funny shows, I think they run into time constraints. And Mourinho doesn't like the players doing too much. He's got a very firm hold on what goes on in that club.

As for Torres... UGH! With the confidence still! Although I have to say that Chelsea (as a team, in general) are a bunch of ball hogs and Torres is a player that needs someone feeding the ball into him the way he did with Mata today.

I say it now and say it again he seemed to be a 2nd winger not striker at chelsea. Chelsea it not the team for Nando they don't suit his style. Chelsea seemed to play long balls. Liverpool suited his style more with someone Like Stevie feeding him in the ball. Tbh Andy would suit Chelsea more!!

Nando is not suited to Chelsea, you still see flashes of his brilliance but Chelsea's style doesn't suit him, I think in United's team for example he would be amazing, or Real Madrid's, he's also lost confidence at Chelsea but he hasn't lost his ability he's still a good player :)

I find him very attractive lately  peacex

^ I don't think its just about getting it together anymore. We have seen him get great chances, do pretty good plays on the pitch even. I doubt that scoring one goal will help him out as much as people think anymore. I think its all about pressure. This season the entire team (with few exceptions) have been dreadful, and he has been subbed in to a game when they are either winning by a wide margin, or needing a goal desperately; or when they are winning, and he has had the chances and just the ball doesnt go in, he gets subbed out for someone else to score, or he gets subbed out and gets to see his team draw or lose. I think that the fact that AVB preferred Drogba as a starter was also a problem. I find it extremely hard for any player to be able to get back to playing when he gets 20' - 40' minutes every few games... I mean, the birminham game was the first I've seen him play completely from start to finish... If i'd known drogba was leaving at the end of the season anyhow, I'd bench him, and start Fernando, get the team to build itself attacking around Fernando, who opposed to Drogba, might actually stay on the team... I just believe that a) the coaches mishandled the situation, b) abramovic is calling too many shots, and c) Torres just has too many people fighting against him (it seems only the teammates, and chelsea fans like the guy... i doubt there is a pro-torres reporter anywhere)... and I doubt being dropped from the national team is doing any help atm...

At Liverpool he was declining because of constant injuries; but at Chelsea he has been fit for at least 6 months, making the issue outside of injury.

Personally I think he just does not suit Chelsea's style of play. That, a lack of confidence in himself and by others is all taking a toll on him. I really, really want to believe he'll get his mojo back and that brilliance that made him so threatening, but I honestly don't think he will find it again, at least not at Chelsea. :(

Not necessarily, they play Napoli on Wednesday, and they need to win that one, so maybe he was resting Torres. The English League for me is the most competitive condition wise, they are one of the few leagues that runs straight with not many breaks, and several periods when they play games every 3-4 days

I'm glad to see he had a breakthrough today...that was a much needed confidence booster. Hope he can continue working on his confidence and maintaining his fitness. I won't say he is completely back as yet, but I would say that a breakthrough can certainly be the catalyst to helping him re-gain his form.

Good for him....
