London, Mar. 15 (ANI): Struggling with form, Chelsea striker Fernando Torres, has confessed that he is finding it hard to settle down following his 50 million pound transfer from Liverpool.
“There are moments when everything seems a mess,” The Independent quoted him, as saying.
Torres said: “The first few weeks are not easy. You don’t just arrive and everything is waiting for you. You have to get to grips with a new city, there’s all the paperwork, looking for an apartment. It takes time to find your feet and there are moments when everything seems a mess.”
He added: “London, though, is a huge city. If there is not too much traffic, it can take me about forty minutes to get to training. On a bad day it can take ages. Life in Liverpool was very different. I venture out in London, but I’m in awe of the city.”
Torres goes into tomorrow’s second leg of Chelsea’s Champions League tie with FC Copenhagen still searching for the first goal following his British transfer record move.
He has played five games and amassed 405 minutes on the pitch for Chelsea, but has yet to deliver any goals in return for Roman Abramovich’s huge outlay. (ANI)
