C9vs托妞，一场没有硝烟的战争

范甘迪

One cost £35 million and the other £50 million. Neither have justified the price tag. Neither have helped their team – Liverpool and Chelsea, respectively – decisively enough to ensure a top four finish, let alone win the league.
  p. ]: ^+ T. ?; ~3 L前者身价35M，后者达到50M。他们都没有证明自己负荷自己的身价。他们也都没有帮助自己的球队确保前四名额，无论是你村还是破车，更不用说联赛冠军这个天方夜谭般的诺亚方舟。

随着英超进入收官阶段，有一点可以确定的是，C9和托妞这两个球员将携手竞争“英超最贬值奖”，望尘莫及，望洋兴叹。

Torres right now leads, but only just.
托妞在这场竞争中领跑，但也只是刚刚领先。

无论是在足总杯上的完美打狗表现还是周一晚（英国时间）对阵热狗的出色发挥都证明了他的空霸潜质，面对道森和莱德利金豪不怯场。
