While we all continue to await Fernando Torres' escape from captivity to vanquish the evil twin brother who has been masquerading as the striker for the best part of two years, Chelsea fans have had to look elsewhere for reasons to be cheerful this season.
Fortunately for them, they have just a figure in the form of Juan Mata. The little attacker has enjoyed an excellent debut season with the London side, scoring a goal in his Champions League debut and either netting or creating a further 13 in the Premier League.
With the Blues still susceptible to shipping a few goals on occasion, Mata's creativity will be of huge importance when he lines up for them against Napoli in the last 16.
