[quote=Stanley Park]What nonsense being spoken on this thread. Torres is one of the best strikers ever to pull on a red shirt for Liverpool. Liverpool FCTV had him in the top three no 9’s as follows Rush, Fowler, Torres and that list went all the way back to the sixties. My personal view would be Rush then Fowler / Torres joint second. As for the bad spell at Chelsea it’s just that a bad spell all strikers go through it. I seem to remember Rushie when he came back second time from juventus he could not hit a barn door for at least 10 games. I personally think Torres needs a good rest and come back next season. I really think you are being disrespectful and let’s not forget we did quite well out of him £30m profit and some cracking performances 1-4 OT anyone? Forgot that now haven’t you? Also did the club keep their promise to him to invest big I think not!
What is the world coming to???? FT earns £3m a minute (probably) for having a kickabout once or twice a week, and you want to give him 4 or 5 months break just because he's lost a bit of form and won't be picking up any precious silverware!?!?!?! I wish you were my boss!!
And you're right, the previous poster was being disrespectful...and quite rightly so under the circumstances.
As far as I'm aware, Liverpool Football Club are a bit more important than fernando torres and do not (did not) have to make promises to selfish tossers about who they are going to purchase in order to keep them happy.
