What do we do with this player ? Does he have a good future at Chelsea ? Will Jose actually play him next season ?
So many questions and I really don´t know what the future holds for Fernando at Chelsea.
If anything his goal in the Europe League Final has only complicated matters and after scoring 21 goals this season it could be argued he deserves to stay.
I´m not saying that is my opinion but even if the club wanted to move Torres on we would have to find a club willing to pay his 170k per week wages. Not easy.
So what does the future hold for Nando ? I really don´t know and and I´m not even sure I would know what to do if I was in charge at Chelsea.
My gut feeling tells me that we should probably let him go, especially if Jose returns. Ok he has scored 21 goals but that was over about 60+ games which isn´t that great. Also Torres has been poor in the Premiership this season and his good form in the Europa League has gone some way to covering up that undeniable fact.

I think 2nd time around is gna be even more explosive.
Mata will be caught sleeping with Ron's wife
Hazard will be complaining to Roman after being dropped by Jose
Luiz will be leaking stuff to the press
Oscar will be found guilty of taking drugs
And Torres will stil be tryna learn how to beat the offside trap

I really can't see Torres leaving this summer. Usually at this time of the season, clubs allow a few leaked stories to come out that they're open to offers for player X. But I'm seeing nothing, no journalists trotting out speculation or quoting unnamed insiders. In fact the only speculation about his future seems to be on these boards.
Add in the fact that Torres has been one of the featured players in the ad campaign for next years shirts, coupled with his own comments about seeing out his contract, makes me think his departure isn't even a discussion point with the board.

Cant really see him going, his contract is the biggest issue and he has stated he wants to stay at CFC and win more ( i bet he does ).
But this season has done him no harm and the strategy he and the club are employing is smart, no pressure!
But i cant really see him taking a 50 % pay cut , and there are not many teams who will want to pay for him.
But after 1 season with jose he might well want to get going.
