Fernando Torres’ departure from Liverpool this season was a bolt from the blue (no pun intended!). Here was the quintessential Liverpool hero, a player who had quickly established cult status after his arrival in the summer of 2007. A self-professed Liverpool fan, Torres shone like a beacon of hope in an increasingly depressing era at Anfield, blighted by the acrimonious ownership of Hicks and Gillett.
He went crap for more than 1 season and Liverpool ROBBED Chelsea with his transfer but were in return ROBBED by Newcastle for Andy Carroll. He's a shade of himself and that's nothing to do with Newcastle I just don't think he has the same passion for the game anymore.
