Seriously there is a valid point there.
I know Torres likes playing up front (or thinks he does) on his own, and has said as much himself , last year when things were going well anyway.
This year however is a different matter, things have not been going as well, we don't have the same team , certain players are not carrying the same form and the opposition have sussed it out. Torres has cut a very isolated and frustrated figure up front on several occasions.
I don't think he is particularly -but no wonder Rafa thinks he is tired, he has no one to take the weight off him and share the kickings , Wilko makes a fair point about Kuyt.

I think you're right vladders, he was fine playing up front on his own in previous seasons because Gerrard was near his best form scoring 20 goals and near 20 assists. Now with Gerrard not at his best, he's just been too isolated up front to be effective. Gotta stick Purple in behind him and push Gerrard back or... I don't know................. BUY ANOTHER FUCKING STRIKER BENITEZ FFS!
