Fernando Torres – 5/10
Fernando Torres has now played more games for Chelsea than he did for Liverpool.
In 102 Premier League games for the Anfield club, he managed 65 goals. In his 103 top flight matches for the Blues, he has scored just 19 times.
Torres’ movement was excellent in the first half, and he was unfortunate to be ruled offside a couple of times with brilliantly timed runs, but the Spaniard rarely looked a threat other than in behind.
Substitutes:
Andre Schurrle – 6/10
Andre Schurrle was almost brought on for Willian only seconds before the Brazilian’s red card, and was therefore unable to impose his usual direct game, shooting on sight.
Demba Ba – 5/10
Demba Ba was alert but generally starved of service. He offered a physical presence up front but did not manage a single strike on goal.
