Torres: ‘Liverpool’s Future Isn’t Looking Bright’

He might not be blazing in front of goal but when it comes to shooting his former club down, Fernando Torres is on fire!

Ahead of a season where our chances of winning anything seem to be being written off even before a ball is kicked, whilst Liverpool again seem to think this could be their year, Torres is quoted as saying “Liverpool’s future isn’t looking bright.”

Not only does he think it isn’t looking bright though, he thinks there’ll be a distinct lack of anything shiny at Anfield, suggesting “I always gave them a 100%, but it was a difficult situation. Even though I felt like I was a big part of the club, you have to also look after your personal ambitions.  For me, that is winning trophies and unfortunately that doesn’t look like a possibility for them.

It’s no coincidence that Xabi Alonso, Javier Mascherano and myself all left Liverpool. It was always about ambitions. I played for Liverpool for a few years and had some great moments.  But when a club like Chelsea, with bigger potential, come calling, it’s hard to say no – especially when it looked impossible to win the league for Liverpool.”

Grows on you doesn’t he?
