Sweet Relief!!!
The poor chap (well, £50 million pounds of poor chap, that is) has become the butt of many jokes this season, but finally, Fernando Torres got on the scoresheet for Chelsea, netting not once but twice in their comfortable demolition of Leicester City in the FA Cup yesterday afternoon.
It’s fair to say that, in recent weeks, the Spaniard has been looking more and more like his old self, but a striker’s currency is goals (apologies for the appalling cliché) and until Sunday afternoon at the Bridge, Torres was a pauper.
Still, with his barren spell now over, can the blonde-haired attacker now kick on and inspire the Blues to a late top four/three tilt?
