Torres mega-thread

[Stouffer]

I disagree that he'd have had a legacy here; I believe he was firmly on a downward slope before he left.

Interesting watch.

Nothing we didn’t already know, fuck him the rat, notice how they all want to be regarded as legends when they retire and they all come back here to this club.

Its embarrassing that cunt actually wore the red shirt again after joining that lot.

[Lario]

Still can't hate him. He was insanely good, and looked boss in Adidas gear.

[Pete]

I’d not want to play for Hodgson either.  Stank when he left but time moves on. 

[Bjornebye]

The club was in a right state and Kenny coming back only masked a lot of problems. Look at some of the sides Torres played in for us that first half of the season, no wonder he wanted to go and try and win something before his career came to an end. Whoever made the decision on Hodgson is who we should be aiming the vitriol at. 

 

Torres is one of our greatest ever strikers.

Yep. His words on moving to chelsea? 'Here, everyone is professional.' And Liverpool they werent? Carragher said you downed tools for the last 18 months at Liverpool and you talk about 'Here, everyone is professional'? Fuck off.

 

You might not want to play for the manager, what about the shirt, your teammates and fans?

 

You got your trophies but chelsea, your teammates and their fans just see you as another trophy captured from another club.

He’s just an employee, if he’s not happy with his working conditions then he’s well within his rights to fuck off. I’d do the same in my job.

[JohnnyH]

Now we’re the club the modern day Torres wants to sign for, not leave.

You should put this on a banner and fly it on the Kop.

[Jennings]

To go to Chelsea though. He could have gone anywhere.

 

He's dead to me. And that'll hurt him.

It’ll go nice next to my “Let the workers control the means of production” banner.

[Pureblood]

I posted it first. Me me me!

Fucking hell, was Henry winter going for an Oscar in that one?

[Megadrive Man]

I remember thinking that we were finished as a big club when he joined Chelsea. I didn't think we'd ever get back to being league and or Champions league winner's at that point and that we were in danger of going the same way as the likes of Villa and Forest.

 

If he'd gone to Chelsea and been a great player for them then I think I would dislike him, but he was so shit for them most of the time it was actually a rare bit of good business for us at the time.

 

I don't think he really downed tools for us either, I think it was more that injuries had fucked him and the quality of our team dropped off so much that we were a shadow of the team he played for at his peak here. 

[JohnnyH]

Well I’d say he regrets leaving now. Had he stayed he’d have won the League and European Cup with us.

“I…I…Still can’t believe it now….”  Yeah right you are

[Barnesey]

He was crocked and we got £50m for him. I like to think he knew what he was doing

[Oscar_the_Grouch]

Can we just give a special shout-out to Stevie’s speaking very slowly and very clearly whilst using demonstrative hand gestures voice in this video. My guess is the interviewer’s English isn’t great and he assumes he’s going to be dubbed / subtitled in the final film.

This. Revisionism by ex players has become their new profession.

I read some tried to get the “bounce” going yesterday. 
 

I wouldn’t have been joining in.
