NIGHTMARE SEASON

Chelsea striker Fernando Torres has said that last season was a major nightmare, despite the fact that he managed to finish the season with three trophies and one individual accolade to his name.

Chelsea signed the Spanish striker from Liverpool for a transfer fee of £ 50 million, which made him the British transfer record holder back in 2011, but quickly out with fans wearing lfc t-shirts.

However, he has struggled for form and fitness during his 18 months with the London club. Ahead of the start of the new season, Fernando Torres has said that last season was a one to forget.

Fernando Torres not only managed to win the FA Cup and the Champions League title with Chelsea, but also lifted the Euro 2012 with the Spanish national team. In addition to this, he was also crowned as the Golden Boot winner at the Euro 2012 after having scored three goals and provided one assist in the competition. Despite this, Torres has said that he does not enjoy the feeling of success because he did not contribute a lot. As a result, he wants to win the Champions League once again with Chelsea, but with the difference being that he is the main man this time around.

“The season was not for me, it was for others.

“Chelsea wins the FA Cup but I don’t play the semi-final nor the final. I didn’t taste anything. I feel I participated a bit more in the Champions League but even so it was not the Champions League I wanted to win, not like that. I want to win another Champions League and in a different way. Not even my team-mates succeeded in doing that in this way. Whatever I do from now on will be for the fans. That is why I want to win another Champions League. For them,” said Torres.
