Torres ain't a happy bunny and is mightily pissed off at the club's stance regarding his treatment for his injury. That's all I know for now.
 
I cant blame him. His main concern now has to be to be fit for the World Cup. Our season is fucked.

Well if its a fight between him and Benitez i know who the fans will and and it sure aint Benitez. I'm i right that torres wantted the surgery and we went with the physio.
 
Let's not forget he got injured playing for Spain.

Still, I can't wait to find out how this is Rafa's fault as well.

Bollocks it is.
 
If a specialist said rest means no surgery I cannot understand why he is pissed off!? Torres doesnt seem the type to kick off over nothing, must be more to it.

I think the fact Benitez was insisting on playing him when he was clearly fucked didn't help its aggravated his injury evn more. So maybe he's placing some of the blame at his door.

Maybe he's rage?
 
According to the Echo or TB( dont remember which one), Torres visited the specialist in Valencia whom he trusts a lot. The specialist had advised against surgery which is what the club is following now. So I dont think surgery is the reason is he is pissed.
 
I thought it was the other way around - the club wanted surgery but he and his advisors preferred rest.

I know, I'm sorry.
 
“When the club has needed to be strong, it always has been,†Torres, who is fighting to be fit for Sunday’s derby against Everton, said. “Now is the time for everybody to stick together, from the manager right down to the lowliest member of staff.

“We must be united to finish as high as possible in the Premier League. I am convinced that we will end up in the top four. We also have high hopes for the FA Cup and the Europa League. At this time, this tournament has become a goal for the club.â€
 
i really do feel sorry for torres. i don't believe for a second that our failures this season won't unsettle him.
 
Torres is passed off according to who? Some old fella spouting off down at the local whilst supping a pint of mild?

We'd still be in the Champions League if he'd been fit.

We'd also still be in the Champions League if our flippin' defense could have kept their concentration for an additional 90 seconds over 2 matches...

You should know her. It's Alizee.
 
There's not enough info to say much about this, except that being a great young football player doesn't mean one knows much about medical science. I remember Owen being peed off when the club appeared to err on the side of caution - I bet if he could go back in time now he'd follow the advice to the letter instead of rushing back. But if Torres is angry we'd need to know more. He might just be frustrated for all we know so far.
 
He's still saying the right things to the media, anyway:

Fernando Torres has given his full backing to Rafael Benitez as the Liverpool manager endures the most testing time of his five and a half year tenure in the Anfield hot seat.

Further pressure was heaped on Benitez following Liverpool’s exit from the Champions League at the group stage on Tuesday night but Torres, who is fighting to be fit for this weekend’s Merseyside derby, is in no doubt that his compatriot is the right man to take the club forward and has called on everyone at Anfield to pull together in a concerted effort to emerge from their current crisis.

“Benitez has shown that he is the right man to take Liverpool forward,†Torres said. “When the club has needed to be strong it always has been. Now is the time for everybody to stick together from the manager right down to lowliest member of staff because above all else we want to make our wonderful fans happy with our performances and results.

â€We must be united to finish as high as possible in the Premier League. I am convinced that we will end up in the top four. We also have high hopes for the FA Cup and the Europa League. At this time, this tournament has become a goal for the club.â€

Like everyone else at Anfield, being demoted from the Champions League to the Europa League was a body blow for Torres but the Spanish forward believes this setback must be viewed in the context of Liverpool’s outstanding record in Europe under Benitez.

“Nobody expected it [to be knocked out] because this team has shown itself over recent seasons to be very reliable. This is a competition that we won in 2005 and on another occasion [2007] we got to the final. Since I have been with the club we have got to a semi-final and a quarter-final.

I dunno, I think our defense would have conspired to see us out of the competiton even if torres bagged himself a hattrick.

I was joking about the hattrick but the simple fact is the attackers did their job, in both games with lyon we took the lead but we fucking it up by conceeding fucking PISS POOR soft goals.
