Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has revealed he was left "heartbroken'' by Fernando Torres' decision to quit the club for Chelsea, but believes the Reds are finally on an upward curve.

England midfielder Gerrard has led the Anfield club through a long period of drama both on and off the field, but he now believes under the ownership of John W Henry and Tom Werner, and the caretaker management of Kenny Dalglish, that good times are not too far away from returning. That did not stop him mourning the departure of Torres, though.

"I was heartbroken. Absolutely gutted. But I also called him after he left,'' Gerrard told the Daily Mail. "There are no hard feelings. I built up a relationship with Fernando and became his friend. He scored some fantastic goals and I have fantastic memories. I enjoyed playing with him. So you can't go from one extreme to another and fall out with him, start criticising him. But he will also understand how I feel. Fernando is a bright person and he will understand that the Liverpool fans are upset as well.''

Liverpool continue life without Torres on Saturday when they meet Wigan, and the decision whether to play Gerrard, who is recovering from a groin injury that kept him out of England's friendly with Denmark in midweek, will be left until the last moment.

Torres' Chelsea debut was a 1-0 defeat to Liverpool, the latest in a string of impressive results they have put together since Dalglish returned to the club to replace Roy Hodgson last month. And added to the signings of Luis Suarez and Andy Carroll - the £60million replacements for Carroll - Gerrard can finally see happier times returning to his club.

He said: "The football club is much happier now. It's in a better place than it has been for a few years. We've got new owners, who I've spoken to quite a lot, who are passionate about what they want to do.

"I trust them, I trust them even more after what's happened in the last week or so. And the way they've acted, coming towards the end of the transfer window, has impressed me. I was a bit wary at first because I was maybe a bit guilty of trusting the previous owners too much.

"This time I've taken a bit more time in judging them. But they've been brilliant so far. They have put the club back in a good place already and the last three or four weeks have been really positive. We've had some good results. The lads are smiling again. I've actually enjoyed going to work again.''

I feel a bit of a cu'nt for him to be honest.
You could tell he was upset the way hes been playing.
He needs to man up and stop being such a tart

Erm yeah

[metalhead]

err... why?

he has done well against Chelsea and Stoke.

[Thommo's perm]

err... why?

he has done well against Chelsea and Stoke.

He has had a lacklustre season by his standards and now we know why.
He needs to stop being so emotional and let things get to him.
He is our captain and needs to toughen up

[metalhead]

lackluster season? 

He has been one of our best players this season.... forgot how he came in and scored a hattrick against Napoli? or trying to get us back in the game against the Mancs, or getting a vital equalizer against Sunderland, getting a goal against Blackburn, then getting the penalty which he missed, he was the only player who was @rsed to work his socks off for the team. Even chipping in few assists and working his socks off.

don't know what your watching mate, but Gerrard is not ''sulking'' up

Spot on Metalhead.

Gerrard is no sulk. Although he may not have been at his best this season he has still been one of our top players.

He might have looked a little disappointed at times this season but who wouldn't be when we had such a bad run. Unlike sulking though he has always, and always will, give nothing but 100% on the park!!

[Alex88]

of course.

Who said he sulked?
You and Metalhead should read my post again before you go on one

[metalhead]

err ....toughen up, man up... stop letting emotional get to him... categories that can lead to sulking.

You need to stop trying to put words into my mouth. If I had meant sulking I would have said sulking
I said what I said because he has a habit of letting his emotions get the better of him and it shows in his performances.
He is a great player, maybe the greatest LFC has had. But its his achilles heel and I wish he could push it to the side and not let it affect him so much
As for sulking, just look at Torres and you will see the difference

[metalhead]

oh tes tois

and I agree...on Torres ofcourse

[Igor Zidane]

I agree with the perm on this one .
