I just have to say thank you to Fernando Torres. Of course he'll never see this but as a 25 year old supporter, he was my first ever hero. I had his book, his shirt, the posters etc. I even did a school project on him and begged my mum for blonde highlights!

I've never blamed him for leaving. He was arguably the best striker in the world for 3 years and we couldn't give him the silverware he so deserved and eventually picked up. Some of my best childhood memories are owed to you Fernando. So put your feet up and enjoy the peace. Probably won't be remembered as a Liverpool legend but you were still my first hero and that will never change 👍.

I'm Spartacus.

Happy retirement Torres, I've never felt any ill feeling towards the guy, he was a beast in his first couple of seasons for us, then we both (club and player) moved on.

Seems like a nice dude too.

Nice original post.
Just wonder who everyone’s favourite player was when they started following the Reds?

I loved Kev the original number 7 was absolutely distraught when we sold him. only to realise the king was something special. and will always be my No.1.

Always hoped he'd come back.

He would make my all time favourite 11 for sure and my favourite striker we've had. I don't remember much of Fowler or even Owen.

Torres>Suarez every day of the week!

He pulled the rug from under his feet and Dalglish and us the Fans, King Kenny bought Suarez in the January Transfer Window 2012 as his dream was a Torres and Suarez front two, but sadly he went to Chelsea for £50 Million and Andy Carroll was bought. What a front two we the fans were deprived from watching probably would of been the best front two ever anywhere in the world (Torres/ Suarez) still brings a tear to me eye now.

That was an odd season Kenny won the league cup got beat in the FA Cup final by Chelsea and was sacked for the "biggest conman" ever to walk through the gates of Anfield. Incidentally Torres was a sub in that final and also Meireles and Sturridge.

Totally with you Plain Bread. He was my first footballing hero too. I wanted the long hair and Alice band though 😂 He was simply unstoppable in that first season.

Such a shame he didn't win anything with us, particularly the league in 08/ 09 would have been nice.
