Pre-season 2024/25 - Borussia Dortmund

Torres crap at passing is a niche view.

Indeed.

[JUAN PABLO]

maybe Walsall we like the look of Dendonker

[Tuscans]

Torres passing is crap, I don't care what anyone says. His body shape is all wrong and any lofted pass fails to hit the target by some.

I would not say it is crap, but if this is one's best quality as a defender, then there are issues. And, to be fair to you, Tuscans, his passes often do not find the target. On the other hand, if you look at the first goal, the initial pass from him to Rogers was very nice. Still, I want my defenders to be really good at defending first and foremost and Torres is pretty average at that.

You see it too mate. Ok, it's not crap but it isn't great either. The defending side of things, well, he isn't ever going to be an aggressive defender. He needs a Kamara, Onana shielding in front of him.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Fair dues, that was a tidy finish.

Even Walsall aren't that desperate

Add to that a decided lack of pace when playing the high line and he is just "OK" for me. It puts a lot of pressure on the keeper, so it is a good thing we have the world's number one.

[villadelph]

wait.. I thought you were all joking around. We're seriously complaining about Pau Torres?!

[Tuscans]

He' alright Ned isn't he

[JUAN PABLO]

refs a wanker 

[UK Redsox]

Looked a clear pen. Ned was shoved in the back

[Tuscans]

Get up you fuckin pusscake

[JUAN PABLO]

they have used about 39 players

[UK Redsox]

What’s the point of bringing on players 85 mins into a pre-season game

[JUAN PABLO]

never off

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Shocking decision. Never offside.
