Rafa said that when given the space, Torres can do what he did tonight. No such space was given when we played Birmingham, which he knew, and decided not to play him. This was seconded by  the legend himself, Ian Rush.

I'm amused to how people believe they know Torre's strengths and weaknesses more than the man, who signed him and has been watching him for a large part of his career.

But there you go. This is a fickle business I guess.

i hear what you're saying AB, but Torres has the ability to scare the out of a defence...so much so they will send 3 (yes 3!) players to get the ball from him.  Obviously RAfa knows his stuff, but Torres today showed that he's our most in form player and i think he'll be in the 1st 11 for a while now

Did you see the game against Porto? It was a perfect example of a decent team nullifying space and time on the ball for Torres to be effective [and the team was in general].

Birmingham did the same, except they defended even deeper as the match progressed.

It's pointless to discuss anyway, it's all in the past now

If he had started the Postmouth and Brum games we might have had 6 points instead of 2

And we might have had the same amount of points even if he played.

I might have been a millionaire had I won the lottery as well.

THat is all.

Against Porto we hardly had any possession, against Birmingham we had the ball we just didn't know what to do with it.

We're useless in games like those. It's not the first time we looked clueless when teams like Birmingham played.

Maybe Torres would have made a difference, maybe he would have struggled, its time we moved on now. GREAT PERFORMANCE from Torres tonight, now for Wigan!

Wish everyone would fuck this word off Fickle cause Ive never heard of it until I came on football forums we dont say to each other at the ground oh hey he/she's fickle, we dont say in the pub fickle, infact us scousers dont even say that stupid fuckin word, cause its not even a word.

Maybe to the internet brigade but the only time I have ever used the word fickle is typing it cause its never come out of my mouth or any other scouser I know.
Does me head in, Fickle behave.

Quality  id never even heard of the word till i come on hear aswell

[LittleHobo]

a word on leto aswell

looks a better player than gonzalez, stronger and can stick up for himself

hope he gets a chance in the first team, hes certainly a better option than babel at left wing.......if anything babel is better on the right wing.......would have liked to seen babel given a chance upfront tonight instead of big pete

[Ace Ventura]

Rafa was covering his @rse A.B. he knew he made a mistake and he is not going to change his rotation policy to please us Pro-Torres.

Or the man who knows the player better than any of us has an actual point.

But I guess that option is ruled out.

Wow it appears to me that you actually believe our manager cant make a mistake.
I know as you put it....he's forgotten more than you or me know...but does that make him faultless...if it does then Moores has done a blinder getting him...and on the salary he is on. He should get paid my wages and yours as well as his own, as he is some sort of managerial god.
Seriously AB, he got it wrong, he is a proud man that can be stubborn so wont admit to it, but even a blind man can see that Torres no matter what game...or what system the opposition employ...is by far our best attacking player.
It shouldnt even be a debate, the lad is the only world class striker we have end of.

Who give Leiva the black eye someone in the Newz Bar?
I see all of them are regulars there might make sense in the way Hobbs didnt play, that other fella was shipped off back to Spain?
You can see them there every thursday , friday and saturday night, enough time for clubbin when your older like me But Im not a footballer.

[LittleHobo]

what do you guys make of leto?

i think once hes settled he could be a gamst pederson type winger for us, strong yet skillfull, lacks a bit of pace but can handle himself and has a great left foot

much better than gonzalez

No that's not true at all.

1. He made a mistake against Portsmouth for example. I've said that before.
2. The team against Birmingham was more than good enough to win. In fact, it should had beaten Birmingham. The Torres decision was a tactical decision not a resting decision.
3. I didn't say that Torres wasn't our best attacking threat.
4. Couldn't be arsed for all of this again
