Stoke City boss Tony Pulis refuses to write off Chelsea flop Fernando Torres.

The Potters face Chelsea this weekend.

Pulis said: "I went to Birmingham and watched him the other night and I thought he did absolutely fantastically.

"I thought he worked his socks off and that his movement was brilliant.

"He just needs a little bit of luck in front of goal - I just hope he doesn't get it against us on Saturday. His attitude was fantastic."
