Re: Torres is a done deal
Leeds, Sunderland, and Notts Forest to name a few, were all big clubs. dont be arrogant enough to think your too big to end up like these. because like it or not your heading in there direction. i`d be sorry to see it happen tbh, as i used to like liverpool quality football. but hey shit happens as they say.

"it is better for the game that clubs at the top to be as strong as ever".
And you call us arrogant?.After your month of mourning that you did not make the CL,maybe you should start a petition saying,that only the Sky 4 should be allowed to qualify for CL,no matter where they end up at the end of the season,in the interest of football.
You've completely misconstrued my point. For starters, as a football fan for more than the last 5 years...... I don't buy into that sky 4 bollocks. By teams at the top of the table, I mean the top 8 teams, e.g. Chelsea, Utd, Arsenal, Tottenham, Citeh, Villa, Liverpool and Everton. That's what I mean, whats the worth if Liverpool and Utd fall into administration, Arsenal can't compete on finances, and it's left to City and Chelsea to fight for the title each year?? Two clubs, run by sugardaddies buying their way to the top.
Also, For your 10 year plans. The reason why people have a problem with City, for buying their way up, is because your what is known as a '2 minute club', like Chelsea were. Small clubs, who got lucky some rich knob has bought them out, and for a hobby is using you as a play toy to mess around and destroy football. 2 minute club because you've shot to the top in no time, furthermore, there's nothing special about Man city, it could just as easily have been Birmingham, Bolton or Hull. The best teams, Liverpool, United, Leeds, Forest, Arsenal, Everton, the City team of the 60-70's, Tottenham of the 70's, built their clubs up from the ground, scouted talent and moulded successful teams. Yes, since the commercialisation (did I spell that right?) of the top division now known as the Premier League, there has been an unfair distribution of wealth, but if Man United had gone through a string of average managers the likes of Hughes and Mancini, they would not have dominated the top flight despite their wealth. The same with Arsenal and Wenger. Personally, I hope until these Arabs piss off, your project collapses and the sugardaddy phase in football dies out, before it catches on and becomes the norm.
Yes I know I leave myself open to attack, but I can take it. Liverpool are a big power in world football, and we will be back at the top fighting for honours next season, despite your wet dreams of us falling into administration. Just remember something, this is one of our worst ever seasons, and one of your best, and your only 2 points above us. What does that tell you? Enjoy the rest of the season, I hope you don't finish fourth so you can't attack and ruin the transfer market to the same degree as you would with Champions league status. And bring on next season, when Liverpool are back above City, and your fighting for fourth place again. Also, good luck with getting Torres, Fabregas, Ibrahimovich, Buffon, Iniesta(Ive seen somewhere on here?), C.Ronaldo, Di Maria, Kaka again?
Have fun :D
YNWA!
