It still blows my mind, the come down this guy had after his first 6 months when he looked like he could be a real linchpin for us. He really did look like exactly what we’d been missing, it’s just so unbelievable how quickly he fell out of favor but he never really wanted to play in England and mentally just couldn’t settle I guess. Still think he’s a pretty good player who will do well somewhere if he’s focused.
This is just outrageous lol. What has Torreira done to make himself a horrible cunt?
Played out of position and inexplicably dropped, loaned out to Atletico, lost his mother and then got homesick and wanted to leave England ASAP.
Horrible club, but calling him a horrible cunt just seems outlandish
He was great when he first signed.
I legitimately thought we signed a baller when he came as can remember a former member on here always posted about him and him being a dream signing.
Sad it didn’t work out. All the best to him back in Italy
Titou14 I believe it was
Yeah calling him a horrible cunt is a bit far, yeah he wasn’t at his best at us, but I wouldn’t go as far as call him a cunt lol
Whats he done. Fuck all for over a year for Arsenal.
Whinge on the field literally in Baku. Whinge on the sidelines when Xhaka got stick.
Whinge about wanting to play anywhere but the club that’s fucking paying him.
The worst that gets asked of you is to give the 10 role a shot fuck me.
He’s one of the biggest frauds we’ve ever had. Done fuck all at Atletico and lost his international place.
Give us a ton shit about wanting to play for Boca and south America and ends up in Italy.
Fùck this little runt forever.
This was such horseshit. Lol.
He fucking did though. Such a fragile cunt.
Nah some cunt put a completely inconclusive pic on Twitter. That was it.
Still waiting for the part where he exposes himself as a horrible cunt?
Just seems to me that he was unhappy here and wanted to move on and made that clear. The club themselves want to move him on. He wants to leave, they want him to leave. Seems to me like both parties have a mutual position on this.
Guess it comes down to interpretation of commitment then.
He was a major investment too improve us. Don’t see any consideration on his part for the club. Hasn’t comeback and given the next manager a chance or anything.
Just fucked us over. Last time I looked Italy was in Europe not south America.
I feel like we should reserve the term horrible cunt for players like Ryan Giggs and Adam Johnson. Calling Lucas Torreira a horrible cunt just makes the term lose its potency haha
What would be enough commitment for you? Does he have to run around like Xhaka, sliding into tackles and getting sent off?
It’s also not his job to be considerate of the club’s financial position. He’s an employee.
Sometimes a transfer just doesn’t work. The English league is different from the French league or Italian league or American league. I also think sometimes we underestimate how difficult it is to move to a different country. England can be a tough place to live. Not settling there or feeling unhappy doesn’t make him weak, it makes him human.
And let’s not pretend Arteta ever really wanted to use him. It’s not as if Arteta begged him to stay and he refused to report to training. We signed a £50m player who ostensibly plays his position. He didn’t have a shot in hell of making the field.
Wish he wasn’t going the Lazio though. I’ll definitely judge him for that.
Yeah right he’s an employee. Me ,you and everyone else is pissed off with our midfield options.
Yet here we have one who can’t and won’t even be considered.
Can’t start going around and investing millions and then making excuses for players who don’t settle.
Can buy himself out of his contract if that’s the case.
Xhaka reference was nonsense btw.
Yeah he’s a cunt mate simple, pretty much refusing to play for us and wants to be sold, but also doesn’t want to forfeit any of the salary he took when he signed to join us.
No issue if he wants to leave, but as you said forfeit your contract.
Easily one of the most disappointing transfers considering how basically everything looked great about this signing. If this type of signing is failing this hard and the likes of Guendouzi, Saliba etc are for whatever reason also not working out I’m left wondering when the fuck we’ll have success building young players we’re investing all this money in.
Was half hoping he’d be forced to stay and knuckle down given our lack of midfield options.
At this point I feel like I’ve watched more training montage videos of Torreira than times I’ve actually seen him play for us.
Just play this dude.
Partey Torriera and ESR is a good midfield
I agree but he really doesn’t seem to want to be here, such a shame because I’d feel way happier watching him week in week out than Elneny or Xhaka.
