stony said:Torres is finished, I honestly don't see why people want a striker who's been suffering from a lack of confidence for 2 years. That's not just a blip, that's a huge part of his career and a move to a club with the high profile of City wouldn't help him one bit.
Torres 3 years ago? Yes. Torres now ? Not a fucking chance.
I agree. Has gone a similar way to how Owen went with their initial injuries. Torres was never the fastest player but he got that injury, Liverpool supposedly played him for a long spell carrying this injury and then Chelsea bought him soon after.
These days he looks very slow, with very little confidence. Dzeko is a confidence player, and to have two on your books that need games and the opportunity to score goals to build belief is a risky move at our newfound level.
It's a no from me, rather move for Higuain who I rate (and another Argentinian, will find it easier to settle with the contingent we have).
