The treacherous prick is becoming more deluded, and making more and more excuses.
I think he is going to struggle coming to terms with things in London, and fuck off back to Spain sooner rather than later
Torres: Chelsea move proves my loyalty to Liverpool
Published 23:00 14/03/11 By Martin Lipton
Fernando Torres last night insisted he was loyal to Liverpool - because he did not sign for Manchester United or Manchester City.
Torres is still waiting for his first goal since his British-record £50million transfer to Chelsea and last week suggested the "chaos" at Anfield had forced him to quit Merseyside.
Now the Spaniard has risked causing more anger among the fans who previously idolised him with his decidedly unusual take on the concept of loyalty in the game.
Torres, who hopes to get off the mark at the sixth time of asking against Copenhagen in the Champions League tomorrow, said: "I did not want to go to Manchester City or Manchester United. I could never do that, out of loyalty to Liverpool.
"But the Liverpool I left was not the same club as the one I joined. I did not understand the path the club was following.
"It's not as if I was the first to leave the club in the last few years. Look at Alonso, Mascherano, Arbeloa, Riera, Benitez. Some 20 or 30 left, all to improve themselves.
"I did not imagine leaving Liverpool but then the Chelsea train passed by and I had to catch it because of the dream I have of winning. I want to win the Premier League and I felt I had to go."
Torres has not exactly pulled up any trees so far, with Blues manager Carlo Ancelotti still seeking the partnership that will allow the Spaniard to flourish, having failed to fire alongside Didier Drogba or Nicolas Anelka, before looking sharper when Salomon Kalou came on to load the bullets at Blackpool last week.
The striker, however, is insistent he made the right decision and that he will reward Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich for his faith by demonstrating he has bought the man who can make a trophy-winning difference.
"The first few weeks were not easy for me. I do not know London, have spent time looking for somewhere to live and it's all been a bit of a mess," aded Torres.
"It's a much bigger city then Liverpool and that takes getting used to, not knowing if it will take 40 minutes to get to training or a lot longer if the traffic is bad.
"But I know my best years in the Premier League are still to come. I'm sure of that.
"What I want to do now is settle down, be quiet, stop thinking about other things and enjoy my life.
"We have the chance to win the title and the Champions League. Four weeks ago I didn't have that and now I feel close to what I want.
"All my life I have sought to win - win titles. I was lucky enough to win the World Cup but as a footballer you want to win with your club, with the players you train alongside every day.
"I am away from home but Chelsea gives me the chance to achieve those goals year after year. Over the next 50 years they will be fighting United and Arsenal for trophies.
"The club has an owner who continues to invest in the side, who has a dream and will not stop until he gets it.
"Of course he is not at the club every day, because that's the job of the chief executive or sporting director. But he is accessible and I know he will be there when I need something."
