Sign a Striker with Lee Chong Wei Winning Standards: Chelsea Told To Go After Falcao and Leave Out Torres in Strike Force

THE LATEST UEFA ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE NEWS – Chelsea ex-manager Ruud Gullit advised his former club that they must get Atletico Madrid’s Radamel Falcao in January to replace their senior striker Fernando Torres for them to have stronger title-winning chances.

Critical of Torres’ lacklustre finishing and disappointing goals-to-game ratio, Gullit said that Chelsea needs a more prolific striker like Falcao in order for them to emerge as Premier League and Champions League winners this season.

The ex-Chelsea boss noted that Torres failed to replicate his success in previous clubs Atletico Madrid and Liverpool, citing his inability to lead the London club to win w1th ease over opponents through fine finishes.
