If we had a top side and squad already I would sell Torres in heartbeat but at the moment we just cannot afford to lose him as despite his form hes still the leading light on our books. We are in no position to be flogging someone of his stature. Nando is surviving on reputation alone right now, on past glory, and nothing more. I think he knows it and can feel it but cannot claw it back. Whilst he remains at Liverpool his get out clause is ist the team, the club situation, thats hampering him, but deep down I think he knows thats rubbish and hes struggling, and even the injury card has gone now. Injury upon injury may have taken the edge off Torres but just like every Liverpool fan hes just praying that one day he can find that spark again but in football you can easily lose it, be top dog, then crest fallen and you just cant get it back.It can happen unfortunately.

50 million could get you luis suarez and luis fabiano youth and experience i cannot believe none of you would go for that pair over nando.

[maypaxvobiscum]

who could replace him and have the same impact?
until those questions are resolved, he should not be sold. ever.

nail on head.

You don't sell your best player unless you have a more than adequate replacement. bottom line.

you lot havent got a clue this is the last chance we have to get mega bucks for nando. you all know full well his injuries are gona get worse. citeh would pay over 50 million for him.

you dont sell your superstars

1) they help raise revenue through merchandise
2) their presence helps attract other top players to the club

[dundreamin]

When you sell a player you buy a better replacement,so whos better than Torres? And would he come here anyway? he will come good again.form is temporary, class is permant

I think everyone has to show a bit of commitment and support for Torres, what i mean is, he puts his commitment and affection in towards the club, the fans and the city and as soon as he has an "off spell", and believe me, this is his first off spell EVER in a red shirt, we turn our tail and shout sell sell sell. Its not right, he's shown commitment to us, lets show the same commitment in him

not if your getting injured every other month it isnt. i really hope im wrong and he never gets injured again and i will gladly eat humble pie if im wrong cos at his best there is no better.

That is true. people expect him when he is in his best years but liverpool dont win titles to commit his future to the club, what he already did. in the other hand, when he is not as his best, people start to ask him to be sold. that is ok, but dont ask then good players to commit their future to the club.

I hope Stevie's performance has inspired Nando to snap out of it, and start running again.

If we can get this kids head right, who knows what we could do?

I'm going to be controversial and say that I would honestly consider selling Torres.

Don't get me wrong, I love the guy and he is possibly the most talented striker we've seen in a red shirt.  We've had brilliant strikers in the past, but I'm not sure any of them were ever considered the absolute best in the world in their position, even Kenny and Rushie.  But at his absolute peak about two seasons ago, Torres was the best striker in world football, bar none.

However I fear injuries have taken their toll.  He looks like he's lost a yard of pace to me, which is very bad news considering the way he likes to play.  I also can't see him ever signing another contract with us because he just doesn't look like his heart's in it here any more.  These things considered I can only see his market value falling and given he's not contributing massively on the pitch these days, I'd be prepared to let him go for a ridiculous bid.
