A number of top players have endured fairly miserable seasons, but there is one man who has failed to enjoy a moment of personal glory for what seems like aeons (his moment of brilliance in Barcelona aside), and that man is Chelsea's outspoken striker Fernando Torres.
This week, following the Blues' Champions League final win, the frontman opened up when questioned about his future, describing the lengths he is prepared to go to in order to bring back enjoyment to his game after two years of misfiring and playing second fiddle to other players.
Although Chelsea fans may feel a little aggrieved, it remains clear that, despite his faltering form, Torres sees himself as deserving of being the main man for any team he plays for, whether that be Chelsea or Spain.
If Torres can enjoy a successful European Championships in June, there is a strong chance that he will be able to be judged by neutrals as hot property once again, with a few performances of note likely to go quite some way to getting rid of his current reputation for being a moaning misfiring striker who failed to earn a starting place in the Champions League final on merit.
With this in mind, Torres will need to waste little time in adjusting to the particular needs and demands of the Spanish squad, where he may find himself on the fringes once again, both on the pitch and off the pitch.
Those preparing to indulge in a little Spain Euro 2012 betting believe that the Euros could make or break a career that looks like it is now hanging in the balance and could just come to a grinding halt unless something is done to arrest a disturbing slide in form from a man once feared by every single defender in the Premier League.
