Torres gone. Scum gone to more scum

[quote author=Sheik Yerbouti link=topic=43861.msg1273141#msg1273141 date=1296513484]
So, has El Cunt actually signed for them yet?
[/quote]

Yeah, he has.
Contract until 2016.
 
Torres: "It is the dream for every top class footballer to play at a top class club and now I can do that."

I'm fucking speechless.
 
Re: El Cunt gone. Scum gone to more scum

I really dont think we should vault this yo.
 
Re: El Cunt gone. Scum gone to more scum

Bye bye Fernando. You scored some fabulous goals for us when you weren't injured and you weren't in a sulky mood. But I think £50 million is worth more than you.

Bring on the pony-tailed Geordie bucko!! ;D
 
Re: El Cunt gone. Scum gone to more scum

Well, i certainly didn't see this coming. Someone i thought got the club managed to prove me wrong and slap us all in the face with plenty of lies and showed him up for the mercenary cunt he really is.
 
Re: El Cunt gone. Scum gone to more scum

At least some CFC fans realize what they've just done ...

Amidst all the El Cunt transfer talk I have not seen anyone ask the most essential question of all. Why do Chelsea want him?

If they sign him they'll either have to change their system to accommodate him and Drogba, or play him instead, unless either him or Drogba is going to be stuck out on the wing a la Anelka, which would be funny to see, admittedly. If they change their system and play Drogba and El Cunt up front they're going to be even more screwed than they are at the moment because their strength for years has been the flexibility and defensive solidity that their 4-5-1/4-3-3 system gives them. If that system goes there'll be times they find themselves dominated in midfield with only 2 players in the centre (which they never are now with 3 there even when that 3 includes Ramires and Mikel) one of them an aging Lampard who needs defensive midfielders there to stay in position to cover his forward runs, and though they'll score more goals they'll concede a hell of a lot more.

The other option of El Cunt up front on his own would leave Drogba on the bench, and I don't see the point of this. Drogba would never accept it so he'd be out the door, and I think he could play for 2 or 3 more years at the highest level so I don't see why they need to replace him now. If El Cunt is to replace Drogba when he does pack it in El Cunt himself will be way too old as one of his main strengths, his pace, will get less and less effective as he nears 30.

Chelsea's defensive record this season is still very good even with all their troubles, and it's not their system or attack that needs changing, it's their midfield. The current midfield still has a lot of quality as of now but it's not really the future. Lampard is 32, 33 before the start of next season, not a good age for an influential player who relied on his physicality for his game, Malouda and Benayoun are 30, 31 before next season, Anelka nearly 32. Are Mikel, Kalou and Ramires really of the necessary quality? Is Essien ever going to get back to what he was?

It's midfield that Abraham should be splurging 50 million on, not El Cunt.
 
It's a vanity purchase by Abramovich. He's liked Torres for years and needed to do something to try and get the Chavs back on track this season, after himself being responsible for putting the brakes on their form when he forced Wilkins out. With a bit of luck this'll turn out to be another Shevchenko moment for him and them.

Though I have to say I wouldn't mind if Torres helps them prevent the Mancs getting no.19 first.

If the bitter voices of dissent emerging from Liverpool this past week are to be believed, Chelsea have just wasted £50million of owner Roman Abramovich's money on the 'fraudulent mercenary' that is Fernando Torres.

The Spain striker is sure to be reminded of his so-called betrayal by an angry lynch mob dressed in red when he makes his debut for Carlo Ancelotti's side against his former club at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

He has been labelled all sorts of names by Liverpool's ex-players and fans alike, with former striker John Aldridge the most vociferous of the lot following his extraordinary outburst that Torres had "spat in the face" of the club's supporters by demanding the move south.

Ex-Reds striker Robbie Fowler has also weighed in with his criticism of Torres, pointing out just a couple of weeks ago the Spaniard was talking "about how much he loved the fans and the club".

The man they idolised just seven days ago has suddenly been dismissed as a spent force at the age of 26 and his reputation, not to mention his shirt, has gone up in flames despite his record of 81 goals in 142 appearances.

For a club that appear to take great joy in their history, it seems Liverpool have very short memories, not just of his talent but their own significant role in driving him away in the first place.

It has taken a heartfelt letter from Torres's beloved elder brother Israel, who refers to him affectionately as 'Fer', to perhaps remind them of their own contribution to the former Atletico Madrid striker's desertion.

It is natural for a family member to want to leap to the defence of one of their own but his communication with family friend and Spanish journalist Javier Matallanas on his website www.matador.com is both reasoned and believable.

He wrote: "I know it's good for Fer and is a big step up on a sporting level. It was what we all wanted because he felt very down, powerless at being in a club that was more like Atletico with its economic and management problems.

"We will carry Liverpool in our heart, as we do Atletico. They are two of the biggest teams in the world and all I feel towards them is gratitude for all they have done for us.


"Now a part of supporters hate him, [I think over time they will grow to love him again]. The reasons behind the switch are not financial [he went to Liverpool for less money], the reasons are sporting. His objective is to one day become the best player in the world and I believe that can only be achieved if he is surrounded by the best players. I hope the dreams of my brother can be achieved, the same ones as when he followed me about as a little boy. At no point have I stopped believing that he can become the Number One."

Torres jnr had little opportunity to justify his actions before his official unveiling in front of the press today.

Up till now his only words had been through Chelsea's in-house media and he simply stated that his decision was motivated by the prospect of winning silverware at the highest level. That only added fuel to the fire as far as Liverpool, who haven't won the League since 1990 and are set to fail to qualify for the Champions League for a second year in a row this season, were concerned.

The fact that he joined them from his beloved Atletico Madrid for a smaller salary when he arrived in a £26.5m deal in 2006 has been forgotten. He took a pay cut in pursuit of major honours, yet three-and-a-half years later he was still no closer to a winners' medal having won nothing in Spain either.

Torres elected to stay, despite large bids from Chelsea and Manchester City last summer, following promises by Liverpool's former managing director Christian Purslow that big signings were on their way to ensure the club challenged for the title.

They ended up with Paul Konchesky, now on loan at Nottingham Forest, and a poor replacement for sacked manager Rafael Benitez in Roy Hodgson, who used negative tactics which ensured Torres saw little of the ball. The saint-like Kenny Dalglish may now be at the helm but it is too little too late as Liverpool find themselves adrift in a lowly-seventh position.

Before Abramovich's massive financial outlay on Monday, which also saw defender David Luiz arrive from Benfica in a deal worth £25m, Chelsea also appeared to be in decline. Suddenly they look a force to be reckoned with again as they have genuine hope on three fronts, in the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup.

Torres, who may be named on the bench due to the hostility of the occasion on Sunday, has been given just as big a lift from joining a competitive club, as Chelsea have from his arrival.

London life will certainly not distract him from his goal of helping Chelsea win trophies because he prefers to stay away from the limelight with his wife, Olalla, and two young children.

No one should expect any lurid headlines as Torres prefers to walk his dog rather than gallivant in nightclubs. His move has been welcomed by the majority of his fans in Spain as they were growing concerned about him wasting away at Anfield.

It seems certain that he will get the chance to make an instant impression against his former team-mates at some point at the weekend.

Everyone associated with Liverpool may not like it but there is no doubt that his career, like Chelsea, is now back on the up.
 
I don't want to read that drivel. No offence. It's clearly written by someone who wants to have a go at us.

I reckon we'll finish 5th.

we'll struggle to even do that. 6th will be a decent season when you consider all the things that have happened this year. I said 6th at the start of the season (because we have the 6th best squad in the league) and nothng has changed my mind in that regard.
 
Regarding the financial fairplay rule:

Wenger, though, is mindful of clubs trying to exploit a potential loophole in their sponsorship deals.

If it is a private company they can decide how much money they put in — it can be a disguise sponsorship,” he said. “Will that sponsorship on the shirt be at the level of the price of the market?

"For example, if [Roman] Abramovich has one of his companies and the usual price is £10million on the shirt, if he puts £50million in, can you go against that?”

Wenger has voiced doubts over Uefa's ability to implement its Financial Fair Play regulations. Uefa plan to prevent teams from spending beyond their means in future, but the Arsenal manager expressed his fear that the details had not been fleshed out.

"[Uefa] are just now building the committee which is in charge to elaborate the whole system," Wenger said. "Nothing is being decided on the Uefa side. They are putting the rules into place for 2013 and don't know how to do it."

Not much to argue with here though. If you were one of the best players in the World and you had Hodgson as a manager and the club signings were Konchesky and Poulsen, you'd be asking questions..

Is that why he told a pack of lies on January 9th?
 
Yup, hard as it would have been to stomach, we all might sympathise with Fernando's ambition in the face of a club promising a tilt at the title buying Poulson and Konchesky whilst selling Mascherano and loaning Aquialani. The problem is the way the thing was handled, last minute, and moving to a PL rival. The sickening realisation he hasn't been sweating blood for the cause (far from it) has also come, and rankles with many.

I don't hope he dies anymore, but please God we win something before the Chavs....

He can fuck off. He spouted off a load of empty words just two weeks before he handed in a transfer request. He did that the very minute the club showed some ambition - the one thing he said the club wasn't matching for him. He's a lair - and they are the worst thing on earth. He could have shut the fuck up and been honest about him wanting to move or he could have held on to the summer when nobody would have batted an eyelid.

He owed us a season after last year and he didn't give us that. His sulking was fucking despicable. He moans about the state of team when he was a major contributing factor of how shit it was. He can fuck off. There's nothing he can say to rescue the way I feel about him. I don't wish death on anyone but I'll laugh my tits off if he snaps his hamstring in half.
