Chelsea warned off Torres
June 14, 2008
Liverpool have quashed speculation that Fernando Torres could be on his way out to Chelsea. The Reds striker has been linked with Stamford Bridge but Rick Parry has denied this by saying…
“Fernando Torres is just not for sale to anyone. It is as simple as that, really - he is not going anywhere.”
Chelsea may go over the top of Rafael Benitez and speak to the Americans who own the club. The owners who have been abused by Liverpool fans and told they are not wanted could cash in on their star asset.
Torres would cost around £50m if Liverpool do sell.
Torres hits out at defenders and goalkeepers
June 5, 2008
Spanish sensation Fernando Torres has hit out at the defenders in the Premier League. Torres who bagged over 30 goals this season believes Ricardo Carvalho is the best defender in the league but the rest of them are pretty average.
Fernando said..
“Terry is captain so gets a much higher profile. But he’s only secondary to Carvalho,Ricky is superb. He has every quality that is needed. But the truth is most of them lack defensive positioning as a result of their reliance on strength and aggression and leave so much space for you to take advantage of.”
My team of the season
May 27, 2008
Its been a great season and there has been some great matches. Here is my team of the season.
Goalkeeper and defence..
GK-David James-absolutely immense in goal, began to have the odd lapse at the end of the season but still was instrumental for Portsmouth. RB-Micah Richards-Over the last few months hes had a few injury’s but at the start of the season he was a candidate for player of the season and if he stays or leaves City he has a bright future in front of him.CB-Rio Ferdinand-A rock at the back and United wouldn’t have won the league without him.CB-Nemanja Vidic-I couldn’t leave him out as he also has been a rock,his fearless defending really suits Rio and a great partnership has formed.LB-Gael Clichy-Really tight with him and Patrice Evra but the way Gael has grown up this has been brilliant and he will certainly have glory days with Arsenal.
Midfielder’s..
RM-Cristiano Ronaldo-Quite simply the best in the world, 41 goals and countless assists, he can turn a game in a instance and win it on his own.CM-Michael Essien-Really strong player and has been a constant performer for Chelsea,he has proved he can score goals in recent weeks.CM-Cesc Fabregas-What a player he is turning out to be,he carried Arsenal in the champions league, he ran out of steam toward the end but still had a great season.LM-Alexander Hleb-Arsenal have found a gem here and should do everything to keep him,his one touch passes carve open defences and he also scores goals.
Striker’s..
ST-Fernando Torres-What a player, he has adapted to life in England so quickly and if Rafa had of played him more they certainly would have some silverware come the end of the season.ST-Yakubu-Weird choice i know but i just feel when hes on his game there is no one better and his finishing is ten to none. He is vital to Everton if they want to push into the top four.
Manager..
Sir Alex Ferguson-10th title and he is the master!! It looked at times that they were looking jaded and tired but they hung on and his team went to Moscow and did the double.
Torres set for Chelsea
May 26, 2008
Chelsea have made an audacious bid for Liverpool’s Fernando Torres. The spaniard had a fantastic first season scoring 33 goals in as many apperances.
Why are Chelsea buying players without a manager..?
Well they have decided to stick with Avram Grant’s transfer list for now. The israeli manager had four or five transfer targets with Fernando Torres topping the bill.
Would Liverpool be willing to sell..?
Liverpool have stated that every player has their price but im sure they would be very unwilling to sell their prize asset. If they do sell Torres the fans would be very unhappy to say the least and the board and the manager would get a lot of abuse of the fans.
How much would he cost..?
He would set Chelsea back £50m but Chelsea are really keen and for that amount of money im sure Liverpool are. I think if Liverpool do sell Torres then they can kiss goodbye to winning leagues and cups because last season he carried Liverpool in the latter of the season.
