Really torres? rafa sends liverpool out to compete? Wow thank you for that information, Now I understand. 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. I think your being incredibly harsh to Torres, it has been to the joy of all Liverpool fans watching him miss some of his sitters :-) I know I have p1ssed my self at loads of them Still great player destroyed by his National team (always came back injured) and not someone I hate even though he left in bad taste. He is a diego, how would he know our definition of honour? Okay having a sideswipe at Evra there too ;-)

He is a diego, how would he know our definition of honour? So a player who is part of his national side and spurns Real Madrid because he would rather play for his boyhood club and try beat them, knows nothing of honour then? Or at least how the English view honour, which is somewhat different to how other people do? Nah. I don't think that Torres and Dalglish/FSG hit it off, simple as. He dragged his heels under Hodgson, and the king may have felt he should accept some responsibility for that. How many times did Dalglish say "we only care about the players who want to be here" during January? Every press conference - I was getting sick of it, myself. I think it [oops] Torres off because he wanted to be here, but he was in a team that sucked and he wasn't getting any younger. I think he wanted out under Hodgson - even honour has its bounds - and once he'd taken that step Dalglish/Henry/Commolli/whoever simply never let him back in again.

I think your missing the definition of sarcasm.
Plus he never wanted to play for Real Madrid, hate to throw a fact out there.

it was hodgson who flew out to spain to persuade him to stay wonder what Roy said to Torres... ' c'mon 'Nando, why don't you stay? I'll let you into a few secrets... promise you won't tell the owners or the fans yet though. I've got it all sussed out. I've got proven quality players on my list. I'll get Konchesky to plug the whole in defence... and Poulsen for the middle of the park. Then we'll get Carra to hoof the ball for you to chase down the flanks... keep it there for 90 minutes and bob's ur uncle! If we're lucky the wind'll blow the ball in to the opposition net somewhere along the way and w'll come away with three points. I'm sure we'll make the top 16 to qualify for next year's premier league. The rest of the teams just won't see it coming. So... what do you say? u in then? '

it was hodgson who flew out to spain to persuade him to stay As he should have as manager of LFC! I seem to recall Purslow was also involved in said discussions. More selective memory, eh? It's no secret Torres and Benitez were not on the best of terms at the end of last season, but Torres had a chance to address that under Hodgson and he failed miserably under the burden of having to carry the side. I don't think he really contemplated leaving until then. Maybe I'm too much the optimist, but I would hope that Torres had wanted a fresh start after the personal disappointment of the World Cup (where they won but not because of anything he did). I'm not so sure however that "fresh start" implied changing clubs, with or without Benitez at the helm. For starters I do not think that Barcelona actually intended bidding for him despite what his Spain team mates may have said, and I'm sure the trip to London was not as high on his list of things to do as it was come the end of January.

f*ck Torres for life. Hate him. F*cking hate him
The Torres/Suarez partnership would have been Brilliant. I will never forgive Torres for walking out when we needed him most. Now we are stuck with Andy F*ucking Carroll. Having a f*cking laugh!!
I looked such a d!ck to all my mates during the transfer talk, "Torres would never leave, he's a red. Remember the armband ect ect" Then he did that- F*ck him. F*cking tosser
