Torres will never go to Real Madrid , hes said that many times in the past and i dont see him backflipping on that promise. He has too much love and passion for Athletico. Sorry bud you are wrong Sorry you will find out you are wrong, Fernando Torres is a professional footballer first and foremost before anything else and what is best for his career will always come first and if Real Madrid or whoever are his best chances of major silverware then he will go to them regardless. The big mistake you are making is thinking profesional footballers have the same love or hate for a club as we do and they dont, alrite they may have certain prefrences about clubs but they would never damage there career by dismissing them if it's the right career move. Torres will never play at Real Madrid in his career

well said whiskey123 i was just about to say the same about gerrard moving to a club like united just to win things.their is just some clubs certin players would never play for no matter what exactly , anyone that thinks Gerrard would play for Man united is a fool , just like anyone who thinks Torres would play for Real Madrid is insane. It just wont happen.

Torres will never play at Real Madrid in his career Think we will agree to disagree on that one, i personaly dont think Torres will go to Madrid simply because Madrid are not the best, if they were the best team out there Torres would join them in a heartbeat rather than staying at a top six club and playing Europa League football for the foreseeable future. Those of you who think the likes of Gerrard would'nt sign for United are wrong too, he would be exactly the same as Torres, Liverpool until the Americans took over have always had expectations of winning the league themselves, and we have usualy had top players playing for us so there has never really been a case for Gerrard thinking about joining them. If you told Gerrard earlier in his career listen your can either go to United the best team in Europe win loads of Leagues and European Cups or stay at your hometown club with no money, no hope in hell of winning your league and finishing you career with one major trophy Gerrard would be there in a flash,everyone knows Gerrard is Mr Ego anyways and is only in it for himself, he would of looked at how Alan Sherarer career ended when he made the biggest mistake of his career by not joining United when he had the chance, look at how he turned out.People need to understand Players are only in it for financial gain and to win trophies and they will play for any club who can provide them with the best chance of achieving that so stop thinking they are like supporters like us who love there clubs and fans, they are employees of the clubs we love and nothing more.

depends totally on the individual - could you see Carra playing for Man U? Or Gary Neville playing for Liverpool even if we were the best team in Europe?

Well Carragher has already said in his book that as soon as he stops being a first team regular he will look for another club regardless about how much he may or may not care about the club, so thats a clear indication that a player always looks after his career and number one first. The thing with Gary Neville is that he was lucky enough to play for the team he supported as a boy and they just happened to be the biggest and best Club in the world at the same time he was starting out in the game so he would of never of had that choice to make. I just think footballers are no way the same as us and they dont love or support a club as the same way as we do. I look at Torres and Real Madrid in the same way as Steve McMahon years ago, McMahon was an Everton fan through and through, he was even a ball boy for them, he knew Everton were never going to compare with Liverpool trophy wise and happend to be the best side in the world at the time and they wanted to sign him, he could'nt move straight across the park so he went to Villa for a season first to take the heat out of the situation and the rest is history. Steven Gerrard and United i would say is similar to the Sol Cambell situation, he knew Spurs could'nt compare to Arsenal at the time, even though he was a boyhood Spurs fan his desire to be successful and win the games biggest honours far outweighed the love for Spurs and he made the move controversialy. What I am saying is both these moves show that footballers always put there careers before any love of a club, both these players controversial moves in time were proved to be correct decisions.

very different to compare a schoolboy signing for his first team to Torres going to Real Madrid, after he played at Atletico for so many years, and has publicly stated he will never play for Real.
Carra might well look for another club after he leaves but it won't be Man U.

Carra would leave for a season or 2 to finish off his career yes but itd be to the bundesliga with Sami or something. I agree with what your saying to a a degree with the majority of players these days but there are a select bunch that do have some class and integrity. Carra , Gerrard , Torres are included in these players. No matter how good Real Madrid are or became Torres has already said he wouldnt go there. Gerrard ( with that ego ) gets unfair critism from some of you blokes who forget that hes played his whole career with this club , yes hes been tempted to leave through some hard times but who wouldnt and also it wouldnt be to man united , i think your being too one eyed to think all players are greedy ego freaks mate

maybe not love for a club like fans do, but i do think players have a personal preference, often based on their childhood favourites.
Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.
