ANDRE VILLAS-BOAS will tolerate Fernando Torres' goal drought for as long as Chelsea keep winning.
But the £50million striker, 27, faces the axe as soon as it starts costing Premier League points.
Torres has hit one league goal since his record-breaking move from Liverpool in January.
Boss Villas-Boas said: "We have to persist with Fernando and help him to find the net again.
"But it cannot compromise the team. The moment that it does compromise the team, it has to come to an end."
