Should he stay or should he go?

Fernando Torres.

This is a player blessed with the natural talents of a world class striker and when he arrived at Anfield in the summer of 2007 it was a major step forward in the reds bid to land their first ever Premier League Title.

But despite scoring 65 goals in 101 appearances for Liverpool the Spaniard has seen no success in his time in the top flight of English football.

Some people argue that a player of his status if too good to not be winning trophies and that he should move to a club that suits his young thirst for championship silver; Que the knock on the door from Chelsea.

The champions failed in an attempt to sign Torres just before the start of this current season with a reported £30million bid. This time they have challenged the pockets of the Liverpool owners by increasing their bid by an extra £10million.

Chelsea have started to find the form that helped them seal the title last year with recent wins over Bolton and Ipswich, but they feel that an extra dimension is missing in their team and it would be filled nicely with the boots of Torres.

One thing is for certain that this move won't be about the amount of money that Chelsea will be willing to offer; it's all about getting his hands on a trophy and making a name for himself outside of Mersey side.

The new revelation with this story is that Torres has now told Liverpool to at least consider the offer.

It would be a terrifying thought for the challenges of the Premier League title if The blues were to secure the signature of Tor as they would then be in possession of two of the most lethal strikers in the world.
