Surely this cant be serious - Im only a novice supporter from Australia but surely the marketability of Torres, especially with the exit of Ronaldo sets up Liverpool perfectly for next year and could never be priced in terms of money.
Surely this would be a trade that has no price.

Rafa could use it to his advantage, make very public derision of his offers and wait until whiskeynose gives up or offers a deal that gives us the advantage. They have sold a player for £80m, a player as influential to them as Torres is to us, so £80m would be a good point for whiskeynose to start the bidding from.......................................
Press : "What do you think of fergie's offer of £40m for Torres?"
Rafa : "Are you drunk as well? Torres has more than doubled his value since arriving here, 50 goals in 84 appearances should prove that - and some"
Press : "You're right, £40m seems laughable compared to what Ronaldo went for"
Rafa : "Ronaldo was important to them, as Gerrard and Torres are to us. They only sold their prize asset for £80m so I would think our players must be in that bracket too."
Press : "So what kind of bid would interest you?"
Rafa : "We ran them close last season, forced them into a phenomenal run in to stay ahead of us, so why would we hand them an advantage by selling one of our best players for anything other than a BIG offer? If we got what Torres is actually worth then what's the point us selling him to our rivals?!?!?!?"
Press : "Quote us a figure then, one might tempt you and have you reaching for the phone a few times, maybe even dialling 666"
Rafa : "How about Rooney, Vidic and £50m. We'd need to replace Torres, Rooney would go halfway to doing that, Vidic would be an incentive and £50m would be a bargain given the cash they have coming in for Ronaldo. But seriously, we're looking to strengthen OUR team not their's. You win games with players not £80m in your pocket, if we sold our key players we'd want key players to replace them and until they come back with an offer that leaves us able to buy three replacements they can go whistle. Thankyou gentlemen."
