Slate him all you like but he's a current world cup winner, european championships, champions league and europa cup.

your quote above is a blatant lie and misrepresents what I said. If you're going to edit my quote to point out my mistake, at least do it correctly.
I said "an deuropa cup"
Re: Torres
Has barely any league goals though. I'm the first to appreciate it's 22 goals this season, but at .3 goals per game and only 7 league goals, that doesn't really set him anywhere near as good as guys like Rooney etc.
Goals per game, they are all ahead of him. Here's some perspective.
Goals(appearances): 7(35) in the league, 2(5) in the FA Cup, 2(4) in the COC, 9(16) in the CL/EL, 1(1) in the Community Shield, 1(2) in the Club World Cup. 22 overall in 63 apps.
Goals/games ratio-
Torres: 0.35 22(63)
Aguero: 0.44 17(39)
Tevez: 0.44 17(39)
Rooney: 0.44 16(36)
Gomez: 0.59 17(29)
Higuain: 0.38 16(42)
Benzema: 0.40 19(47)
Villa: 0.42 15(36)
Balotelli: 0.44 14(32)
_____________________________
Ronaldo: 1.00 54(54)
Messi: 1.20 60(50)
Messi... what the shiraz....
EDIT: found goals per minute
Torres - 226
Aguero - 160
Tevez - 194
Rooney - 145
Gomez - 70
Higuain - 145
Benzema - 166
Villa - 136
Balotelli - 127
Messi - 71
Ronaldo - 89
Also, Benfica showed that most teams in the Europa league have shitty defenses. Once Garay went down he had a field day ( and Luisao was too slow for him too).
One final point, WHY DOES NO ONE STAND ON THE POSTS ANYMORE? There was a Benfica defender who just jogged away from the post as the corner was coming in, what was he doing?
