"[Leaving Liverpool] was a decision I had mulled over for a long time, even though it appeared to be taken very hastily," Torres said in an interview with the Spanish newspaper Marca. "I had made up my mind a long time before. In the summer in which Xabi Alonso left [2009] I started to wonder.
"I had the best three years of my career at Liverpool. I thought I was at the best club around, one that would win things with time. But when Xabi and [Javier] Mascherano left, and before them [Peter] Crouch and [Alvaro] Arbeloa, when reinforcements didn't arrive, I started to wonder if Liverpool was the club its history suggests or if it was in fact a selling club.

For me there's not much to argue in this section, but that's the point maybe. He's defending on turf he thinks can be defended. Truth is we were going through a tough patch, and he wasn't willing to be a good egg, and stick with us. Fair enough. But all the other comments - complete lack of respect. He's making it worse and worse. Good riddance Mr Sulky, hello Mr hardworking, assister (Suarez) and goalscorer!
