Topic: Fernando Torres

[Samie]

Yeah his son is a scouser confirmed. wasn't sure about a couple of weeks ago. 

I’m really looking forward to going to Anfield, I know the atmosphere there and I’m really looking forward to going. I’ll bring my son with me, he was born here in Liverpool and is a Scouser."

[Sangria]

Yeah his son is a scouser confirmed. wasn't sure about a couple of weeks ago. 

Someone posted a photo of Torres hugging his Liverpool-supporting son.

Edit: Hang on, that was Harvey Elliott.

[Nogg3000]

Any truth in the rumour Nando stood in for Ryan Reynolds in Free Guy?

Torres for me was the first ever superstar we had in the premiership era
My kids cried when he left as did their dad
Still love watching him as a Liverpool player on YouTube

[royhendo]

His shoulders angle into his neck like a cluedo character these days.

[Desert Red Fox]

from the club's official twitter account:

""It’s amazing. From outside you can see all the hard work the club is doing and Jürgen also."

We caught up with @Torres last night "

Strange how he’s received well but Suarez is not.

Torres left us in the shitter in the same way if not worse & I say that as someone who loved Torres.

[CalgarianRed]

Strange how he’s received well but Suarez is not.

Torres left us in the shitter in the same way if not worse & I say that as someone who loved Torres.

Maybe Suarez is still playing a high level and mostly excelled at Barca, meaning he left in his prime. Ofcourse he is one of those players who are hated when playing for opposition due to their antics. He was unbearable in the CL semi. But TBF to him he did not leave to a direct rival.

Torres spent his prime at LFC and was on way down when he left. Except the initial interview about Chelsea being a big club, he has been mostly respectful which has grown since he retired. He probably fondly remembers his time here.

IMO both are well liked for what they did at the club. Even though didn't win anything significant, both are LFC legends of the modern era. Definitely top 10 and in Suarez's case top 5 since PL started.

The truth is finally out. From the horses mouth.

Wonder why it took so long to make this film.

Love Stevie's cameo where he does his best Joey Barton impression (but English in a Spanish accent hehe).

[Hazell]

Torres always seems like he genuinely regrets leaving when and how he did and it's fair if he thought the club wanted to sell him and at the same time he wanted to win big titles which seemed like a couple of years away at least. I was gutted at the time but prefer all the good memories we had when he was with us.

The bigger thing annoying me now is that did they need to have that pillock Henry Winter in that video? The guy more interested in advocating Rafa getting sacked and having his mate Hodgson installed as manager rather than doing any real journalism about the state of the club around that time.

That doc has been out a few years now I think. It’s a good watch.

[stoa]

Never really got the hate for Nando after he left. It was pretty clear to everyone who wanted to see it why he left and how the fuckers in charge pushed him and a lot of others out of the club for no reason other than their own interest. It's even more baffling when the likes of Mascherano and Suarez didn't get half as much shite thrown at them after forcing their moves. I get, that going to Chelsea is a bit different from going to Barca, but at the end of the day our club was a shambles for a long time after Rafa left and I don't blame Torres for leaving.

I loved that he finally got something like closure when he came back for that charity game and had his song sung one more time by the Kop. I believe you could see it in the coverage and interviews how much coming back to Anfield for that match meant to him.

A very glorious sadness...

Thanks, Jason...

[elsewhere]

so how was The Last Symbol? I keep seeing the clips on Youtube and Twitter. Worth a watch?

[The G in Gerrard]

Peak Torres was still one of my favourites. Was phenomenal.

[pathetic]

He was my favourite player and it hit me hard when he left, even though it was understandable. Still haven't forgiven him yet .

To be fair, it's a competitive match in the under 19s between atletico and Real and not just a bunch of local kids at a kick about. So, I can see why it might be a bit more intense and heated even if it's not the first teams playing. Have to say though I'm not a fan of Nando's look after he has stopped playing. Kuyt did much better in the changing looks department.

Fernando Torres wil be at the AXA Training Centre to learn from Jurgen Klopp today and tomorrow before attending the game against Brighton on Sunday.
