What a boring set of midweek games in the Prem. The only remotely impressive display seemed to be from Spurs. And if Benitez sticks with Torres up front for the remainder of the season (which I assume he's basically hired to do) they'll be lucky if they make the top four. They should just accept that he's never gonna find his form again, sell him for whatever they can get and move on. It's not the first time a big signing hasn't worked out (Ballack, Veron, Shevchenko, Forlan, Arshavin, Carroll, De Gea). Abramovich seems to be sacrificing an entire team's chances in the hope that Torres will eventually work out. He won't.
And that eight year contract for Pardew (stupid to begin with) looks even more miss-judged at the moment.
