7 - Ferran Torres

[Temptation]

Who will they blame for all the team's troubles now?

Lewy?

Why did you cite these statistics? Fans on this forum think Torres is the only one who misses big chances.
You shattered their illusions. Who will they blame for all the team's troubles now?

Missing big chances is actually one of Ferran's lesser problems as a footballer

His finishing has improved greatly over the last two seasons

It's in practically every other aspect of the game that he brings nothing. Hold up play, link up play, dribbling, heading game, workrate..

He's a very strange player. Nothing really stands out. He's neither a bonafide striker nor a great winger.

Looking at him initially, you'd think he's one of those vague modern forwards that can play across the frontline and have excellent technique and linkup play but don't have the goalscoring ability.

But he's a decent goalscorer with really weak linkup, zero holdup play and general involvement/presence in games. The only thing he's actually great at is movement off the ball.

He's just so underwhelming and boring.

He's just a horrible footballer benefiting off Barça inability to sign players and Flick super offensive system with world class creators in his team

When Flick is gone and especially when/if he leaves Barça I fully expect him to flop and surprise whatever team is crazy enough to get him how shit he is

Ferran did well at Valencia. Did well under Pep and done well for Spain.

He wont go and flop if/when leaves.

Teams also know what he is.. anyone scouting him is not missing anything Barca fans are seeing.

Did well under Pep

That's a stretch. More like okay to decent as a squad player.

Pep actually liked him a lot initially. If he did that well, Pep wouldn't let him go.

City fans didn't give a flying fuck seeing him leave.

Ferran did well for Spain like he did well for Barça

Bunch of fluke goals created by WC footballers. Never stepped up when Spain really needed it

Did well under Pep? Did he?

He did well under Pep and Pep rated him.

Nowhere near a flop and hasnt been at any club so far so expecting him to be when leaves Barca is unlikely.

By your logic Alvarez never did well at City as Pep let him go.. Pep tends to let players go if they want to unless maybe if a peak Haaland/Rodri type.

Yes he did well under Pep and has done well for Spain.
