HODGSON: TORRES HAS BEEF WITH CLUB

25th July 2010

Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson admits he is running out of options in his bid to keep Fernando Torres at Anfield.

The new Reds boss, who briefly met with the Spain international for the first time last week, insists Torres' apparent reluctance to commit himself to another season with Liverpool pre-dates his time at the club.

"Unfortunately, I cannot do much more," Hodgson admitted in quotes reported by the News of the World. "His beef is with the club and not me."

He added: "Fernando's situation has nothing to do with me, he made that perfectly clear over the phone during the World Cup and when I met him face-to-face.

"He knows what I would like to do with the club. He knows how much I value him.

"But his issues are with what has gone on in the past rather than the future.

"If he has problems with the club for things in the past, it is difficult for me to dismiss that."

Dalglish confident Torres will stay

Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish is confident the capture of Joe Cole and retention of captain Steven Gerrard will show Fernando Torres just how serious Roy Hodgson is about moving the Reds forwards.

Hodgson, who took charge at Anfield following the departure of Rafael Benitez, is hoping Torres will follow Gerrard's example and publicly commit himself to the club, but concedes the Spain striker has misgivings.

Hodgson briefly met with Torres for the first time last week and maintains the 26-year-old's apparent reluctance to commit himself to another season with Liverpool comes from issues stretching back before he arrived as the new manager.

Torres - battling to be fit from an injury suffered in the World Cup final - has been linked with a £60million move to Chelsea should he decide his future lies away from Anfield.

Dalglish, who played for and then managed Liverpool between 1985 and 1991 and is now the club's academy ambassador, feels Torres can be talked round to stay on under the new regime.

"When Torres sees that [Cole signing] and talks with Roy I am sure he will give us good news," Dalglish told BBC Radio Five Live's Sportsweek programme.

"I hope Torres stays. Only Fernando knows what is going to do.

"Unfortunately for him he is injured, but he is a fantastic player and is very happy around the club and the city.

"The fact that Stevie is staying will be a great help and players like Joe Cole, Milan Jovanovic, Jonjo Shelvey and Danny Wilson means there is buying for the present and the future."

Dalglish added: "Roy is going to stamp his own authority on the club - but it is difficult at the moment because the players are coming back in dribs and drabs after the World Cup and you don't have everyone coming back together."

Dalglish, 59, out of management since ending a short spell with Celtic in 2000, was himself keen on getting back into the Anfield hotseat when Benitez left, but stepped aside when it became clear he was not in the running.

Dalglish is not sure whether he will return to coaching.

"Whether I would be a manager somewhere else remains to be seen. I don't know," he said.

"Sometimes you miss the buzz of competing at the top level but you don't miss it when you lose a game because it can be very lonely."

Dalglish added: "When Rafa went I offered to help in any way I could.

"There was a list made up by [managing director] Christian Purslow and I spoke to a few people.

"After the initial conversations I stepped aside and the board made the decision who would be the next manager.

"I said I would help in any way I possibly could for Liverpool and I would have been prepared to be the manager if they wanted that.

"But they didn't want that to happen, which is their prerogative and that is no problem for me.

"I was very happy at the club last year working with the academy and being an ambassador and it was enjoyable."

the problem is you are not liverpool fan , how many player do have YNWA under his captain armband? ozil , elia and huntelaar all will come because of $$ and not because of liverpool football club

cant wait for Torres decision,EPL just few weeks away now><

liverpool wanna sign poulsen...he aggresive...he kept kaka silent....and he is cheap..good replacement for mascherano

Tegucigalpa,

Honduras

El representante de Maynor Figueroa, Jean Marc Goire, confirmó el fuerte interés del Liverpool en el defensor hondureño.

Es más, se atrevió a decir que "casi todo está arreglado, solo faltan algunos detalles para ratificar el fichaje.

Maynor tiene el 90 por ciento de las posibilidades para irse del Wigan".

Los Reds arreglaron con Maynor por 8 millones de euros y serán a partir de la próxima temporada los únicos dueños de los servicios del lateral.

Maynor se mantiene de vacaciones en el país y nada más espera que su equipo lo convoque para irse a finiquitar su contrato al Wigan y establecerse en Liverpool.

Comenzaron los exámenes

Los Rojos de Inglaterra ya se encuentran realizando algunos exámenes médicos a sus jugadores.

Ayer le tocó el turno a Joe Cole, el mediocampista que fue traspasado del Chelsea por 9.3 millones de euros. Roy Hodgson, el entrenador del Liverpool, cerró su primera contratación al llevarse a Cole y espera que Figueroa sea su siguiente fichaje.


Quick translation of details:
- Agent confirms Liverpool 'strong interest'
- 90% chance that the player "will leave Wigan"
- 8million euros is the fee
- still on holiday in Honduras
- waiting for Liverpool call to go for medical

rawk

Figueroa is coming? hmm.. that is good news. would like to get jansen too. if both of them come then we can settle the left back problem for good. i want huntelaar come here also. haha
