I hear ya, but how much did Shevchenko cost ?
How long did the Chavs persevere, trying to fit him in ?
Where will the 30+ Drogba and Anelka be next season ?

£30.8 Million. Club record at the time.
No idea if it was Jose or the board that signed him but he stayed for 3 years, played 47 and scored 9 goals. They ditched him pretty quick, suppose Drogba was in his prime so they back up. This time, who knows. Drogba's not getting and younger and Anelka's pretty inconsistent.

Don't mean to hijack this thread but I have to ask,
why isn't he scoring?
[/quote]
Quite simply, he's not working hard enough. You could see it in his last year or so with us - minimal effort, lack of direct running, and constantly looking for body contact as if it were somehoew going to either a) win him a free kick/penalty or b) excuse his shit form because he's being "harassed".
On his day with us in the first two seasons, defenders didn't touch him cos they couldn't get fucking near him.
He didn't care about defenders (look at his treatment of Vidic) reputations, strength, physicality etc, cos he knew in hiw own head he was too good for them, but he allied that with a strong work ethic, some brilliant peeling off running, availing himself for the ball, and not going to ground every 2 seconds.
Remember when Everton beat us at their ground in the Cup a year or two back? That game marked the beginning of his slide for me; Jagielka absolutely owned him that night. Stood up to him, outmuscled him, and outthought him. All Torres could do was petulantly flick out at him and trail in his wake.
Since then he seems more intent on his opponents than his teammates.
If he can change that mindset he'll still be a wonderful player, but if I was a Chelsea fan I'd be worried his head's too far up his own arse to be able to change.
He was a 50M player two years ago.

There is an idea of Fernando Torres; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me: only an entity, something illusory.
I have all the characteristics of a Chelsea player: blood, flesh, skin, hair; but not a single, clear, identifiable emotion, except for greed and disgust. Something horrible is happening inside of me and I don't know why.
And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable... I simply am not there.

This.
And I might add that he doesn't look he's enjoying himself one bit. Prior to kick-off against United he looked like someone who would've preferred to not play actually. No desire, no focus, no self-belief.
