The Torres poll

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

Just wanted to get the consensus about Nando. Was going to post this last night, but giving the anger on here, didn't think it was the best time. Most of us have slept on it now, so putting it out there.

 

Given that the likes of Rooney, Tevez, Fabregas etc in the past have all handed in transfer request and are still at their clubs means Nando can be convinced to stay. Also considering Stevie nearly joined those plastic cunts TWICE is also testament to this theory, even though the circumstances to that were are little bit different.

 

The question and point of the poll is are you done with Torres or should we do everything in the next three days to convince him to stay? If he does miraculously do a u-turn like some of the above, can you forgive him?

 

I honesty don't see the point in keeping him until the summer just by rejecting the Chelsea bids and his transfer request.

[ngogswilly]

Would love him to stay. But its too late. Hes burned his bridges. Had he waited till the summer. Not a problem I would have understood 100% after the way this club has been run over the last 2 years.

 

But asking to go now with 2/3 days left and we're looking on the up. Unforgivable.

[lfc_sotorious]

weve seen how sulky he is at the best of times, imagine what he'll be like if we keep him against his will. The difference with tevez, rooney and fabregas is that there clubs are all challenging for top honours, Fernando wouldnt want to leave if we were thats why i think we should let him leave. Get as much money as possible and move on

[Major Tom]

Sell him. I don't think there is any coming back from this. He isn't dead to me as I can understand why he wants out.

 

Disappointed it's Chelsea and it's happened so late in the window, mind.

[Tepid water]

Voted to sell, but I think we should lock him in a room with Kenny for a few hours first.

 

I really can understand him wanting to leave, broken promise after broken promise from the club, he came from his beloved home club to win things and we are miles and miles from doing that. He left his club, so why wouldn't he leave ours.

 

To do this three days before the end of the transfer window is poor,very poor and this could have been done in may with much les fuss.

 

Feel sorry for FSG they really can't win this one and are damned if they do or don't sell him.

[James Dean]

Force him to stay until summer, then tell him he's free to go abroad but won't be allowed to sign for a rival.

 

If he refuses, let him rot.

[piscinin]

We need to do whatever is best for us. I don't know what that is.

 

But no-one can take away the memories.

[Welsh]

Fuck him off, Disrespectful twat, anyone who doesn't want to play for Liverpool should fuck right off.

[dirk grout]

Force him to stay until summer, then tell him he's free to go abroad but won't be allowed to sign for a rival.

 

If he refuses, let him rot.

 

I concur.

[TommyW]

Force him to stay until summer, then tell him he's free to go abroad but won't be allowed to sign for a rival.

 

If he refuses, let him rot.

 

If this was an option i'd vote for it

[Vincent Vega]

Force him to stay until summer, then tell him he's free to go abroad but won't be allowed to sign for a rival.

 

If he refuses, let him rot.

 

That's exactly my stance on the situation. Let him run the gauntlet for the rest of this season so he can see and know how much his actions hurt us and then let him know he can leave if someone offers his full value in the summer but not to an English side.

 

What I can't get my head around is why he would want to join such a small club whose very existence is dependant on a Russian crook who may pull the plug at any time.

[Red Banjo]

Force him to stay until summer, then tell him he's free to go abroad but won't be allowed to sign for a rival.

 

If he refuses, let him rot.

 

This. Helping Chelsea become stronger shouldn't even be an option. None of the other clubs would do it to each other so why should we.

 

Fuck him, and fuck Chelsea.

[Unrighteous]

Neither --- If he wants to go fuck him. He'll go on our terms, though, and in the summer to a non-rival.

[ScouseJim]

Force him to stay until summer, then tell him he's free to go abroad but won't be allowed to sign for a rival.

 

If he refuses, let him rot.

 

Which is exactly what I said in the other thread last night on both points! No way should he be allowed to go to an English club.

[Tubal Cain]

Take a lot of cash with Daniel Sturridge Joshua McEachran and that good young defender they have whose name escapes me in part ex. Buy Andrew Carroll (Idiot but good player) and Ashley Young and make the best of a very sad situation. Keeping a player who wants out never works. Do it with style and honour and keep the knives out of backs :-(

[chris71]

Sell him, 60 mill at least and squeeze those chav cunts nuts.

[StevieH]

Force him to stay until summer, then tell him he's free to go abroad but won't be allowed to sign for a rival.

 

If he refuses, let him rot.

 

This.

[aiyic]

Only two options? Things like this ae never that black & white; where is the option to keep till summer and tell him what his obligations are (like the club have seemingly already done), and what about having a word with him - we all makes mistakes and bad calls, so maybe this is one too.

 

Not irretrievable by any means. Just look at Tevez.

 

And it is forgivable.

 

So for me, have a big fucking word in his shell-like, and tell him to issue a statement along the lines of this being one big mistake.

 

PS His agent could have a biiiig hand in this. Could well have been telling him 'I told you so'.

[Hermes]

He's not worthy of debate. Kick him out now.

[jonnybastard]

Force him to stay until summer, then tell him he's free to go abroad but won't be allowed to sign for a rival.

 

If he refuses, let him rot.

 

That one.

[JagSquared]

The two options given don't really capture my thoughts. He's not dead to me and I don't want to do everything to convince him to stay either.

 

I think we should hang on until the summer and have a sit down and see what the options are. If he still wants out so be it. But until then he plays and I expect 100% I really don't want the mongs to boo him just get on with supporting the club, no man even Kenny himself, is bigger than the club. The timing is stupid but players are.

[RedRoadEnd]

Chelsea and NESV have smeared him beyond belief, and like UTTER MUGS, some of you are going along with it.

 

Most knowledgeable fans in football? Most clueless morelike, nowadays.

 

The guy wants what WE want. NESV to play fair and rebuild a team for him, and all of us.

Chelsea and the media wanna cause shite. NESV just want the dirty dollar by any means possible.

Sell the Crown Jewels if u want. Dont expect me to give these damned yanks another penny tho. RIP LFC, if thats the case.

[aiyic]

Force him to stay until summer, then tell him he's free to go abroad but won't be allowed to sign for a rival.

 

If he refuses, let him rot.

 

Kind of agree, but limiting the buyers reduces the price. I wouldn't care if he goes to Chelsea. If he goes, I couldn't care less where it is, even if it's Manu.

 

This request smacks of bad advice; he surely knows that promises by the last regime are null and void.

[Best Believe It]

I'd like to think the damage could be repaired and he'd stay, but I can't really see how from a personal point of view. Gerrard's flirtations with Chelsea soured my own view of him to this day. I can't see how it would be any different with Torres.

[havarantagain]

compromise.

Agree to sell for min 40 mill in the summer. we get his services until then. he/they get what they want. We ask for 50% down payment on deal etc.makes good business for us on a player that hasn't replicated his first season due to regular injuries and likely is going the same way as Owen on that front. cash in. We are not a one man club.
