absolutely shameful. I'm gutted that he's decided it's time for him to move on but, this is no way to treat anyone.

Instead of burning shirts, he really should be treating that fence. It's a right state..

Well I remember them showing a Gerrard jersey being burned when he nearly left for Chelsea a few years back. I think Torres will be disliked about on the same lines that Ashley Cole is by Arsenal.....and really all of England for that matter.

That is disgusting. Do i have any advice for the fan? Yes, a few plants scattered around the edges of your garden would improve the look of it very much. Also, the reason why your plant is not growing is that your pot is upside down.

It's not that Torres wants to go, it's the fact only 2 weeks ago he said he would definitley be staying and he waits 3 days before the window closes to put in a transfer request.
Any player can leave the club but it is the manner they leave that irks supporters, Torres' behaviour has been down right disrespectful to a club that despite all his injuries and loss of form has stood by him and tried to protect him.
paul said in reply to Mikey ...
He's been tapped up and his agent can hear the clinking of gold. If all of these signings come off today, we'll be a better, stronger side tomorrow than we were last week. Can't complain about that!
Just wait for the first time Torres goes on international duty and comes back broken once again.
Ben said in reply to paul...
Agreed!!

im glad this person did that because torres betrayed liverpool! i was a HUGE fan of his and red his book and stuff and now he's turning his back on us. well liverpools gonna be way more successful now that we have suarez and carroll <3

That's awfully flammable. NESV should really do something about that. Children buy those shirts.

Whoever this person is he must have been watching too many Muslims in Middle East when they show their dislike in something/someone. This might have been harsh of me to say but that sure is also a stupid thing to do.
Red or Dead said in reply to Kaj...
Yeah he's probably also hitting his Torres posters with his shoe!!

He bought the shirt and in turn paid Fernandos wages in the process. He didn't burn the mans house down. He's entitled to burn it if he pleases. Fernando sold out with no legitimate reason. If he can't give the club one season to rebuild after the turmoil and turbulence of the last 18 months then we were never in his heart in the first place. He proved himself to be as fickle as the next footballer with his surly bigger than the club attitude. Our history will resonate a great deal longer than that of his or the Abramovich Chelsea era. He's made a massive massive mistake and time I've no doubt will prove that to be true. What he walked out on was magical and he won't get to be part of restoring the greatest club in England back to the top which, for the players that do, will make any achievement Fernando ever accomplishes pale in significance. To Liverpool Football Club and all her supporters everywhere. You'll Never Walk Alone.

Rusty Shackleford said...
Goodbye Torres, you will now and forever be just a Rentboy. Say Hi to Yossi for us, his career really took off after he joined Chavski.
