The author probably got his source from this Cana Plus presenter:

@DarrenCanalPlus Darren Tulett
Damien Comolli on Infosport (French TV): We bought Suarez to play alongside Torres. Fernando wrote me a letter to say he wanted to leave.

So we know number one is true! I am persuaded that Torres is not a finished article yet.

The source should be trust-able. Another journalist mentioned abt Comolli's interview with Infosport too.

If only it were always that easy. When a signing doesn't come off, as in the case -- so far, it has to be said -- of Andy Carroll, who cost Liverpool £35M ($54M) in January, and has scored four goals in his first 17 appearances for the club, the whole system is blamed. Comolli bristles at any mention of Carroll in this context, though he did previously admit to Infosport that Suarez had originally been signed to play alongside Fernando Torres, and not Carroll. The problem is that what works for one player might not work for another.

Why did the "paperwork" for the deal not get done until Torres was on his way?

John Henrys on record comments are more pertinent. We couldnt afford a net spend at the time.

Wow, our resident lawyer has a photographic memory!

[Fabio]

Yeah, you obviously do need a good sense of humour to want him back

 

[Rosco]

I read it as they'd take anyone with a brain to join their group because the group was sorely lacking brains if they wanted Torres back.

 

[Fabio]

Both are decent viewpoints from us rossy

Leave out the likes of Kenny4PM.
