KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Torres: Best memory of my career

+1

In fact, so good I'll have to +1 it again!

Believe me Stigasorus, I'm 'over it'. In fact, was never under it tbh, but it still doesn't stop me from absolutely hating the vile spotty two faced nasty rat faced back stabber that let so many fans down, greedy faggot that he is.
Many were in tears because of his actions, and the sooner some of yous lot remember that the better.

Wouldm't p1ss on him if he was on fire.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I know, I know. I have mentioned ^^^ it on many occasions. Soz, but he REALLY does get right upon my breasts.

That's no true though is it

For some footballers - ie: local guys who play for the tram they supoorted - there is that loyalty, the most obvious example being Steven Gerrard who despite falling out with LFC and being promised considerably more money at Chelsea simply couldn't - when push came to shove turn his back on Liverpool

With foreign players it is different



That logic dorsn't always follow

Torres obviously didn't have faith in LFC but he was still scoring goals for them - something he's failed to do for Chlsea - who he obviously does have faith in - which is why he joined

Not all footballers can be tarred with the same brush

Torres hurt us because he spent much of his time on merseyside trying to pretend he wasn't one of your typical mercenary players and was 100% commited to LFC - he even wrote a book about it

When Gerrard stayed with us you are branding it as pure loyalty. But was there not some shady local mafia stuff at the time? not saying that was the decider but it was a murky time. Its also very easy to be loyal when you are on £150k a week even after your career is past its best or over. Gerrard will be contracted with us till he is 38 at £150k. Give that to me and I will be as loyal as you like.

Me too. Can I be the first to apply for being your lap dog/rent boy please?

Given that he back-tracked twice I'd like to think it was out of loyalty - at least primarily

We'll never know for sure but he was one player who decided to stick with his club - despite the fact another club, that was more succesful at ther time, had offered him more money to go there

Shows that not every footballer is completely greedy

All things being equal players like Gerrard / Caragher would rather play for their local teams than have to move away. But its more being in your home city infrastructure of familar places and family and long standing friends nearby rather than the club. After all the club is really a global brand that is based in Liverpool and many of them anyway were childhood evertonians such as caragher, fowler, mcmannaman etc. But if the deal was not right for them they would be off like a shot any one of them.
