Fernando Torres and Andriy Shevchenko

#andriy shevchenko #fernando torres #listen #i really hate to be that person but their stories are so much alike #phenomenal strikers brought to chelsea for an obscene amount of money #failing to meet the expectations #both were described by their chelsea teammates as surprisingly quiet and work focused never socialising etc #sometimes these descriptions did not match the impression that their teammates from other clubs had #both were portrayed in media as abramovich's favourites and had to constantly defend themselves from these accusations #but also they both spoke very positively of him in this 'only person that trusted me and was always so kind to me' manner #i'm not saying that they were both victims of something dark and twisted and manipulative at chelsea but
