QuoteIt ended up in the second row of the crowd

Might not have been counted as a pass so ...  ::)

I rate Torres, and it's hardly his fault if he's playing as a (token) lone striker when the rest of his team are concentrating on not conceding rather than creating.  And, as has been very fairly pointed out, he has scored a lot of goals on the break this year, including those against Chelsea and Inter.

QuoteBoots being positive about a Liverpool player

I don't really consider him to be a Liverpool player, he's obviously in the shop-window for a big club (as Rafa might say) - another excellent Gillette investment.

Relax lads, that's not on the cards - I've even convinced Boots junior that he's a waste of time.  ;)

QuoteGerrard playing as a midfielder, but without the responsibilities of marking anyone.

If someone can now explain to him that the easiest pass is not necessarily the worst pass, then ye'll be on the pigs back.

This was very close to Billy saying something good about Gerrard. I think he's coming around lads :D

I would hardly call Inter a great side, and fair dues his goal against Chelsea proves his pedigree when it comes to the big games.  I would hardly call Everton a top team, no matter how big a match its regarded as - he was anonymous against United in the 2 games, and also against Arsenal.  Fair enough if he didn't score, but to perform like he did shows him in a different light than that which Liverpool fans see him in when he scores against Derby!

Torres is quality but to calibrate, he skinned Tal Ben Haim.

he's a goal machine plain and simple. 21 lge goals all from play. And his total could have been 26 goals if he had taken the 5 penalties scored by Gerrard/Kuyt. Injured for 4 lge games & "rested" by rafa for another 2, so you do the maths - its a great return!! In my opinion he's the best striker in the premiership at present. He has scored against chelsea, porto, inter & everton - fair enough they're not all great sides but were hugely important games and he delivered. He was also very unlucky not to score against man u at anfield. It's his first season with Liverpool and I think he's only going to get better.

Ok, I was going to bite, but I'm not. Fair enough nrico. Whatever you think yourself.
AZ, you're a more patient man than me. somethings just need to be said.

Ok why is everyone getting on his back agbout the Old Trafford ga,e? He was a lone striker for 60 minutes due to Gerrard falling back after the sending off.

??? Like the Old Trafford game he was no threat.  The only chance he got at Anfield was down to VDS flapping.  His goals return is good at Anfield against the weaker teams, all I'm saying for the money spent you would expect him to be at least threatening teams like United, Chelsea and Arsenal.

I'm starting to see a bit of a connection between Ronaldo & Torres in regards to going missing against the top teams...

I see more of a connection between Stevie G and Torres!
