da betway: Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas has hinted that Fernando Torres may not be recalled for either of the club’s two massive games in the next week, the Champions’ League opener against Bayer Leverkusen or the weekend’s trip to Manchester United. Villas-Boas is keen to keep faith in Daniel Sturridge, calling him an “outstanding player” after the young Englishman scored Chelsea’s winning goal against Sunderland at the weekend.
