So you are effectively blaming Robbie Keane for Torres' poor form?
Keane decides the formation now does he?!?!?

I think there is a very strong chance Torres is more effective as a lone striker (with Gerrard just behind), Keane probably more with a Berbatov next to him more than a Torres. I think it's no coincidence that Torres' only goal this season came with Keane off the pitch and last time I checked, Torres had only spent around 70 mins without Keane also on the pitch compared to over 500 with.
Who knows, maybe Keane and Kuyt might work as a pairing up front. I'd possibly have left Kuyt on the bench last week and played Pennant against Stoke, with defending not a major problem and headless pace might have paid dividends!
