The club have also stuck by Torres despite his injury problems and have done everything to keep him happy. I am not sure why any club would give assurances about players that are coming in, and if Torres bought into that hes clearly been nieve because no footballer controls transfers. I think Hodgson is right to come and say he cant, or more likely wont, do anymore talking with Torres and it looks like hes running out of patience with the player now. Like I said in a previous post, his mucking about is holding up our rebuilding plans and we really cannot move on recruting forwards until hes made his mind up. Trouble is for Torres hes in a corner because he wont go to Real Madrid who would take him tomorrow, and Barcelona have Villa who he always plays second fiddle too so he wont care for that either. No one in Italy can afford him and their best team has taken on his former manager who hes not keen on either. If he goes I assume it will be City or Chelsea but his problem then is dealing with the heat that will come his way from the adoring Liverpool public who have backed him to the hilt and he knows it too.
