KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Its obvious what the Torres problem is............

and the more I think about it, the more I understand.

This horrible news has shattered my weekend. Their should be more important things to think and worry about than Torres leaving. Its only football..... but the horrible dread that I've been feeling just won't go away and I'm already dreading the Sunday papers.

It was only early January when FT was issuing a rallying cry to save our season, remember?

Of course I dont know him personally but he seems like a good bloke. As genuine as any footballer seems.

But are any of you fellow fans really going to tell me that you haven't been pee'd off with this January window?

We have wrapped up Suarez or so it seems but it has been painful to say the least.

It's actually been embarrassing. Offering 12.5 Mil for a player that is obviously worth more than that. I think FT must have been following this window more keenly than others being one of the few superb players we have and been thinking WTF is the board doing here?

If we had been on the ball, we could have wrapped up Suarez and a couple of tidy players to (I know there is still time.....) to inject that belief and keep the faith of FT more enthusiastic.

I'm not defending the guy, I'm gutted he wants to go and the manner in which it is happening but does us buying Suarez in the manner we have (drawn out over 20 days!) really fill you with belief that we are gonna invest hugely in the summer?

It doesn't with me.

But maybe, just maybe.... this could be the wake up call the board needed.

I really hope he stays until the summer at least and we could be in much ruder health by then and real progress could be on the cards.

Don't you just wish you were Hiro Nakamura so you could visit Melwood in summer 2011 to see what NESV bring to the table?

I agree, I can understand nando frustration, but the timing of this is all wrong. I wonder what suarez thinks about all this, now his said strike partner is wanting to leave

I'd say Suarez is feeling pretty [oops] tbh!

At the ned of the day the club bought in a so called high quality player...sure they may have offered less than what he's worth but that's business....you never offer your highest bid when buying a house first time around.....Ajax certainly played hardball at their end so it was just business...Unfortunately we don't have the funds to say here you go here's 30 mill and we'll have him...we tried to get ourselves a better deal to see if they would take it given Suarez said he wanted to come to LFC. Who cares how it's done at least it's done and Torres should see that we are startin to get back to the strength we used to be.....Chelsea are on the decline and it will be a regretful move by him if he does happen to go!

I wounder what other potential targets think of this also. This is all to close to the transfer window closes

Torres deserves nothing but contempt, how is he anymore special than anyone else? He's full of his own self-importance. No name is more important on any shirt than the crest at the front. Do you see Reina acting like this? Demanding a move? No. Pepe has been utterly loyal to us and has re-affirmed that commitment time and again. Nando can fecking do one as far as I'm concerned. Even if he stays he's only delayed the move until the summer anyway.

Pepe is the real Liverpool legend, not Torres.

Aint that the truth. He was here long before Nando and hopefully he is here for a long time afterwards.

Both of them stated less than two weeks ago that they wanted to stay and their hearts are with LFC....And now Torres does this...who's to say Reina won't do the same thing?
Gerrard did it a few years ago and he's still here too!!!

Not saying I'm not disappointed but maybe it was about getting some deals done because a few days ago it looked like we would sign no-one...could have been a pressure tactic? Once not saying that is right either but at this stage he still with us and if he stays he should be supported because there's a lot of time between now and the end of the season and If stays he may stay for a long time!!

Pepe is class on and off the pitch, he wouldnt disrespect us and Kenny like Torres has.

Who's to say he would? Innocent until proven guilty?
