From day dot he professed his love of Perennial strugglers Liverpool. Atletico and LFC were, as far as he was concerned, the only clubs he's ever cared about. He's continually (the last time, 3 weeks ago) declared he was committed to the club with no intentions of leaving. He's also said he would never LFC for another english club. Hence why all of this has come as such a shock to fans, no one ever dreamed he would leave and especially not to a top 4 rival in england.

His comments show a complete lack of respect and also more importantly, that his professed love of the club was just a facade. Either that or he's trying to justify to himself a reason for leaving.

Also I think The Right Track Sports Bar too, on Fort St.

Fair enough. 



Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Torres watch 2k11: After 7 minutes without getting within 10 metres of the football he gets one touch before the ball is cleared.

Also, is anyone else up to watch this or is it just me?

Torres watch 2k11: Picks up the ball and runs at Agger, who proceeds to step into the tackle and elbow him in the face

Well done fellas. We got the tactics all wrong really. Not a good formation. Agree that I don't think Torres was Ancelotti's signing. Pressure from higher places there. Anyway, close game, kinda dull for most part but you had the clear cut chances and deserved it. Congrats. Interesting to see how Carlo manages Torres in later games. One positive is that Luiz looks quality.

Was this the 'official' formation (or whatever was shown in the pregame section) or just your reading of it? Because in the game I definitely thought it was Aurelio at LWB, Johnson further up the pitch and Meireles closer to the midfield.

Weird system though and I can't help but think it may have been a dry run for the Chelski game on the weekend, considering how we can match their overlapping fullbacks with ours. Although you might think that Suarez will be starting if he's considered match fit which will change it yet again.

hopefully zonal marking does and article about the game and I can see what he thinks.


Did you see this?

In the later stages of the game you were definitely playing a line of five at the back and a line of four through the middle (after Meireles came off).

Well done, the second time this season I have found myself supporting you guys against Europa League side Chelsea. Pub went off when you scored, east London seemed to be behind you.
