Ex-Chelsea midfielder Burley forced to get himself Fernando Torres tattoo

Former Chelsea midfielder Craig Burley has been forced to get himself a Fernando Torres TATTOO!

The Mirror reports during a previous show, the ESPN panel began discussing the Roma fan that decided to get Francesco Totti's selfie celebration inked on his arm ... a subject Burley will be regretting right now.

Given the show was aired before the Madrid derby on Thursday, Burley blurted out that El Nino had absolutely no chance of scoring at the Bernabeu, so confident that he offered to get a Torres tattoo if proved wrong.

Well, obviously Burley was massively incorrect. It's taken Diego Simeone just a week to end the Spaniards broken form as Torres netted within 50 seconds of the Madrid tie.

The Scotsman now has Fernando Torres' face TATTOOED on his arm.
