The Spanish striker damages his popularity in the manager's view with his recent speech against his Chelsea squad. The 27 year old reported to have called his Chelsea team mates "play very slowly" in an interview on his official website. Torres, however, defends himself claiming that the online publication have misquoted him. Chelsea, who spent some $79 million dollars to buy the 2010 world cup winner from Liverpool who so far has only scored one goal in 18 premier league outings for them, have taken into account the Spaniard's outburst against his team mates. Even the manager has stepped out to say "We are going in depth to regain the tape of that interview"..."We will see if things play exactly as they are in that interview."
It would be interesting to see if he's kept on the bench tonight in their Champions League clash against Leverkusen. With Drogba out due to injury and Sturridge in good form, it wont be difficult for the manager to keep Torres on the bench tonight.
