here, here Mighty. The mark of a great club is not to boo those heros who have left. The fact is enough has been said on how he now regrets the way he moved.

The step down to a smaller club as I see it is punishment enough. It is what marks LFC as different to any other club. Alonso has said this many times

Why are people still obsessed about Fernando Torres? He is not our player anymore, sure for the first two weeks it was fun laughing at him, however now its just getting silly. We Liverpool fans are always mocking him and some have joy in him failing. lets move on from him please.

now that is finally some sense , ok when he left and the way he left it was a story , but not now if he scores sunday then he scores he is no different to other liverpool players who have left and played against and scored against liverpool in the past and will in the future .

In years to come we want our living legends associated with the club. Kenny, Rush, Fowler, Torres, Suarez etc. It's in our interests as fans and as a club to continue to build this list of heroes (just like our managerial heroes) rather than destrying them.

I can see where you're coming from there Mighty, but I think it needs more time though, I still feel sore at the timing and manner of his going...not so much his going, as he was pretty rubbish for quite some time before that. But yes I can forgive it, but I sure can't forget it, so I won't be asking for his autograph for a while yet...maybe someday...!

I understand what you're saying. I guess we're at stage 2 of a 3 stage process:

stage 1: incensed and letting him know about it at every opportunity

stage 2: we've made our point, now lets just ignore him and treat him like any other player of the opposing team. don't give him any special treatment, even abuse.

stage 3: when his career's over then at some stage we'll welcome back, induct him in our hall of fame etc. (assuming that he doesn't go on to have better success elsewhere. ok... don't think he won a trophy with us but it's with us that his fame and prowess reached it's heights)

Having said all of the above, I'd find it very difficult to do the same with Michael Owen.

Have to disagree with all of you (everyone knows my thoughts on this topic) in that he is still one of the best strikers in the world and his form is well and truely coming back.
I would have him back in a second because regardless of him leaving and the manner in which he did, he did so much for us as a Liverpool player and without him we would be no where near where we are today. For a number of years we have to admit that it was always Gerrard and Torres... For whatever reason we always seem to be a 1-2 man team and that definitely needs to change. Without Torres we wouldn't have Suarez, we wouldn't be challenging for the top 4 still because we weren't all that attractive an option for quite a long time.
Let's be honest, I'd have him back at the top of our line-up in a second and I know that half of you will agree with me.

You know what evans, as much as i hate to admit, i have to agree with what you said. I am angry due to the fact that he chose to go to our rival and that most are bitter due to the fact that he is a great player for us. I know he lost his form lately and that one of the reason because there is no Gerrard in their side.

Strange isn't it Snakes that he comes out of the woodwork just as we prepare to meet them for a couple of games. He was never called to play mind-games when he was with us. I suppose what else would he be good for since he can’t get the job done on the pitch. A 50M spokes-person. Must be pretty good at his new job.
