okay. sorry if i am responsible for lengthening this Torres thing....and no offense to anyone...

i saw the article...i thought his answer was not in anyway belittling the club...During that time, under Roy, did anyone of us believe we will win the league? He made his choice then, that joining Chelsea will give him a medal. It didnt happened. but he made a choice after weighing his options. I was depressed because of it. I wished he stayed, and still become a legend although he might not win a lot of medals... than playing for THAT club. But he made his choice...

He was asked why he left, so he just gave an answer...He didnt say thing like `2 years from now, i will win more trophies than Liverpool, or 2 years from now, i will win more things than Gerrard'. Neither did he said `I believe Lampard can make me a better striker as compared to what Liverpool midfield can offer'. He was asked WHY he left. So he gave his answers.

Vreis, Yes, you're right. He could have focused on the good times in Liverpool and also on life at his new club instead of telling people why he left. but i think 90% of the press will probably never ask him `How much you miss Liverpool' or `how is training with JT like?'. The media loves sensation and their favourite question will always be `Why you chosed Chelsea and turned down Liverpool'. Hence, his answers.

Unless he decided not to talk to the press anymore. but that's another issue.

If the press keep on asking Alonso the same question (why did you leave Liverpool for RM?), I am sure it will sound the same- The Madrid project is more exciting, no one turns down Real Madrid, its my dream, etc etc..

you know what's the real joke?
http://www.clickliverpool.com/%E2%80%8Bspo...E2%80%8Bes.html

click on that headline...Its started by saying `Fernando Torres believes a bleak future lies ahead for Liverpool'...So this is implying that Torres believes that THIS season, with Suarez, KD, Carrol, Adams, Liverpool's future is bleak...

read on...

its not...the statement Liverpool's future is bleak, was actually how he felt during Roy's time. Didnt we all feel the same and that's why we asked for Roy to be shipped out?

Like i said, I am not trying to offend anyone here, and i dont mean to act like a Torres fan boy...but sometimes, the press is a laughing stock...


Well, looking forward to us winning trophies in seasons to come..and Torres winning none...

Thanks for the link. Very interesting statistics for the three midfielders.

nando, he could CHOOSE to answer diplomatically which wouldn't ire the likes of me. Even if the press asked him why choose Chelski over Reds, he can answered the way I reply in the above. By not doing that, he's taken the press bait. Come to think of it, every p[ress ask him the same question if he answer diplomatically wouldn't it died down instead of stoking more fire?
Emotion ran high the way he left us, so he shouldn't have taken the bait, not when he have the choice not to do so.
You can say he must praise his new team, but wording wise, he chosen wrongly.

I say sack his PR manager

Before anyone said thats the past, lets moved on, I'd like to say I've moved on, but it doesnt mean I cant discussed anything about him just like we discussed Shanks, God, Uncle Bob etc....

well, to be fair to him, many of these multi millionaire sports stars are perhaps not as well educated...or they dont care less about what they say...

in that sense, you're right..what in the world is the PR manager is doing?

well, at least Torres didnt go around Twittering on why he left us eh?

Now is post torres LFc, I'll like to thank him the fond memories, we wished he could have stayed while the storm lashed on LFc, unlike us football on the top is a short career, during that time with so much uncertainty he felt he had to move on.

Which is why I like gerrard on the sacrifice he did. Maybe some of you guys might not understand n liken to make a trival jokes (it's like of us Had the opportunity to move on to better work prospects but some stayed in the shaky unstable company)

we have passed the big storm, but still there are huddles ahead to climb back to where we were best known! You have to give credit to Manu on having knocking us off, but now it's our time to knock the greezer devil, and it takes us fans to be in support to the club n manager.

*Anyway, I covered the hologram number. I just wanna know are the details same as those from Adidas shop.

Thanks a lot for your kind comments.

Yes, is same as mine. I bought from Adidas retail outlet.
You can register your official Liverpool merchandise here
Btw, how much you bought from them?

Bought for RM 210. But only for LSCM members we get that price.

liverpool home 2010/2011? i got the shirt with rm170 only, 30% discount. and that was 6 months ago

I don't know why after more than 6 months already of the transfer issue, still want to dig out the old story again, and again.

Can't just say thank you, it is the past already.
Both parties move on.

Why need to criticise?

and without any NN?

sorry to tell you i was looking at kitbag, less than 40P for home shirt with Europe NN on

got this but didnt show Kuyt.. he was playing for Van der Sar testimonial in Amsterdam..

"There aren't many who would get nearly 40,000 fans watching a training session, 80,000 watching a friendly [in Hong Kong].

"The reception in Asia, the whole thing, was incredible and shows the size of this place. But that's the expectation of being here. You look at the history of the club - with Bill Shankly and onwards they have always won trophies. It's just massive and a real honour to have the opportunity of playing for them."

SOS SOCCERNET
