Actually instead of signing yet another forward best us try and buy a top class centre half.
Much as I am excited by the thought of getting Torres, I agree with Revolver, it's time for a world class centre half beause we certainly haven't got one of those yet.

His job is to stick to twats like Rooney like glue, put them entirely off their game by being in their face all the time and give them no let up. He does it better than anyone.
True, but he proved in the WC he can play the killer pass. he put through a sublime ball for Van Persie against Denmark that led to a goal. He will greatly improve Liverpool if we let him go. I'd rather keep him and let Barry go.

Hodgson just said this in a press conference this afternoon:
"As far as I know <Torres> is looking forward to coming back here; he is back on Monday," said the Englishman.
"He is enjoying a holiday - a well-deserved break as he has not had one for three years.
"He is spending a lot of time with his family, keeping a low profile and as far as I know he is not really speaking to anyone.
"But he has told us that he is looking forward to Monday, looking forward to getting back to work and looking forward to playing for Liverpool next season.
"That is what I know so other reports, I would suggest, are erroneous."

"as far as i know"... :)
That was a proper cruncher...Alonso probably had bruises on his spine after that whack.Chippy_boy said:super_city_si said:This. He's bloody good at kicking players in the chest as well!
