Chelsea boss Villas-Boas: Spain omission tough for Torres

Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas feels for Fernando Torres after he was axed from the Spain squad last week.

Torres featured as a substitute in victory over Bolton Wanderers yesterday.

"A big, big miss for Fernando, for sure," Villas-Boas said.

"The only thing I can hope for is for Fernando to get back to an excellent level, like he has been playing for us, and go back to the national team."
