Man Utd boss Ferguson scoffs : Of course Torres will start scoring for Chelsea

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has no doubts Fernando Torres will start scoring for Chelsea.

Torres has yet to find the back of the net for the Londoners since his £50m transfer from Liverpool in January, but scored three times against United while with the Reds.

"Of course he will start scoring," Ferguson told Gazzetta dello Sport. "I just hope he waits a little bit, at least until after the tie against us.

"When Chelsea signed him, everyone said what a great signing he was, and rightly so. Now everyone says that it was a mistake. Can people be more ridiculous? Of course he needs time to adapt."
