Man Utd keeper Van der Sar RAN MORE than Torres in Chelsea defeat

Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar ran MORE during victory over Chelsea this week than Fernando Torres!

The Sun says during Tuesday's 2-1 defeat, Manchester United goalkeeper Van der Sar covered 5,176 metres of the pitch. Torres managed 5,112.

Yes, that's right. The United keeper did more running than Chelsea's £50million striker.

Even allowing for the fact the goal-shy Spaniard was hauled off at half-time, it is brutal confirmation of Torres' miserly contribution to the cause since becoming the most expensive footballer in Britain.
