Torres to quit if reds don't make top4

[PaulMcC]

Would that argument not be a double edged sword ? What about the times Rafa has not picked his best players when they've been available to him ? Would that not be grounds for a sackable offence ?

 

No.

I was told yesterday, that Torres see's it different from the headline of the thread. And the person who told me has actually spoken to Torres.

 

Lets hope we don't find out, but if we don't finish 4th, we will soon find out.

 

Although it may not be Torres decision If he wants or does not want to leave, those 2 pricks might make that decision for him.

 

Good to hear that. I don't for a second think that if we are now to be in a run of seasons of no cups and desperatly trying to get fourth year on year that he wont leave. Of course he will, and he should as he deserves to be playing in a team fighting for the very top, but Torres wont walk this season. He'll be a Liverpool player next year, but if we continue to be shite, then he wont be the season after that I wouldn't think.

I think he's playing a game of politics and thats all there is too it.

He's admitting making mistakes then...

He was asked if we didn't finish 4th would he resign.

Yeah I know.

 

I was being mischievous.

Be good to have a programme like "Sunday Supplement" or "Soccer Saturday" where some managers (not the LMA names of course) sit around and rip newspaper articles apart and pour scorn on examples of TV punditry.

 

One feature would "We told you so!" Every time a paper prints an "as we revealed TWO MONTHS ago" type of story when it gets something right, the managers could pick out 5 or 6 examples of "where you FUCKED IT UP" with articles where they were way off beam.

 

Praise where it's due of course - if pundits and press deserve some credit then obviously pick it out, but like it is with the likes of the Sunday Supplement it would probably need to be 80/20 negative/positive.

 

That would be fucking boss. No end of ammo either but the problem lies in the fact that the bloke that owns the TV station also owns the papers that write the shite.

 

Still a good idea though, it would rate highly for sure.
