Ferran Torres

[The Stockport Iniesta]

he looks very exciting,not sure prem players will fall for the ball through the legs trick for long though,think he will get battered a lot

Yep he looks a player, if we can get him 1v1 with the fullback often enough he could cause mayhem.

We had the second best defence in the league this season so I think it's fair to say Premier League defenders aren't as shrewd as you're making out.

He’s no Jordan Henderson either.

Who is?

I struggle to understand some people’s reactions to this...too light...not quick enough...
Clearly know more about the lad than our management and extensive scouting network which is quite remarkable.

He is 20 and looks a very good player already.
With Pep’s track record of improving young players he is a very exiting prospect for us and at £21 million as quoted on BBC website he has the potential to be an amazing bit of business.
I cannot get why some here aren’t exited but then again this is Bluemoon...
Hope it happens soon.

Who is?

The clue is in the name of the thread mate.

Whoooosh

 

[domalino]

Wouldn't have you down for that.
Also do you and @twosips have a pact to like each others posts ;)

Haha perhaps I should add that to the beginning of every post I make...

And well, great minds and all that!

We‘ll see how this looks in 2 years. Until then you can’t criticize. Not the player type we lack but we‘ll see.

You know what I mean though,flair player versus cloggers,he will get kicked to shit

I’m concerned about the lack of pace combined with his relatively lightweight frame. I fear he’ll just get eased off the ball in this league. Hope I’m wrong, but we’ll need to wait and see.

What, just like Merlin was?

He is exactly what we lack going fowards

So I'm going to assume that with Silva's departure and Foden's emergence, Bernardo takes Silva's spot in the central midfield collective and Foden takes Bernardo's place as wideman and occasional centre mid. Which leaves us with Sterling, Mahrez, Torres, and Foden as our wide forwards/wingers.

Unless we sign another forward that is.

 

[Del_Bosque]

Sane was very quick though, not just in terms of top speed but also in terms of acceleration. If you can get past your defender then the referee will blow for a foul most of the time if he touches you. If you can’t then the referees are very lenient to the defenders in this league.

I’d have liked to see someone with the pace characteristics of Sane or Sterling rather than Jesus or Mahrez. Anyway, I’d like nothing more than to be proven wrong. Let’s wait and see.

Torres was in the top 10 fastest players in La Liga last season

Sane was probably the quickest player in the league, before his injury anyway

 

[Zenmanc]

Pics?

Sorry.

 

[Cityfan]

Yeah but you don't get a premier League winner, player of the year and probable Nobel prize winner for £20 M.

 

[Zenmanc]

Is she a friend of tits out?

Broke the internet apparently.

We'll see. I'm sure he'll adapt his game one way or another.

 

[pudge]

Usain Bolt's fast, we should sign him.

Sané joined when he was 20 and scored 9 goals his first season, 5 in the league.

I'll wager anyone this kid betters that.

 

[RayCTID]

It will take take time to fully acclimatize but I am not too concered with Torres against the Premier League cloggers.
