The only reason for that is the size of our fan base, he won't sell as many shirts to chavs for that exact reason.
I'll try again as some people are just too thick to understand:
All I have said is that chelsea sell as many shirts as we do - and I have proved this citing several internet resources (yet people still argue and come to the bizarre conclusion that I'm not an LFC fan!?)
A huge amount of our shirt sales was because of Torres, so we can't count on his sales anymore, obviously, leaving us with just Gerrard in the top 10
Chelsea now have Torres - whilst they "may" not have a fanbase as big as ours they will still sell a hell of a lot of his shirt and he'll easily be in the top 10
Last year, in the top 10 players' shirts sold, we had Torres (1st) and Gerrard (2nd)
Chelsea has Lampard (6th) and Drogba (7th)
This year they will have Lampard, Drogba and last years biggest seller, Torres
We will have Gerrard
So whilst we've been selling about the same quantities as Chelsea, only a fool wouldn't expect them to over take us.
I despair sometimes at the lack of logical reasoning and basic intelligence on show in this forum. Oh well, not my problem.
Continuing to aggravate other posters. Others have also been warned.
