Torres could be returning back to Athletico Madrid.
Here's a link to the Wail. It's been the main topic of discussion on the various Chelsea fora all day, with many offering to give him a lift to the airport. The story is being denied by Atletico, Chelsea and Torres' agent as far as I can make out.http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-...

As far as Drogba - no thanks. Everyone seems to forget that his last season was pretty ordinary apart from the Champions League.
By Drogba standards, sure. But you can't sniff at 13 goals (more than Torres in all but one season) or deny his presence. 1 year plus a coaching role (don't expect him to play week in, week out) seems good business. We need to move forward and having Drogba back in a playing role is a glance backwards, not forwards.
As much as I don't rate him, I'd rather have Lukaku.

Drogba's back! One year contract. Must mean that either Nando or Lukaku is offski.
His not gonna be full time player, most likely bought in for the coaching role.TheRealFingers99 said:

Great to see the Drog back.
I hope he is going to be at least mentoring Lukaku.
And maybe Oscar -- who has looked as though someone has been stealing his lunch money for the last 6 months or so. I hope he is going to be at least mentoring Lukaku.
