Agree it work both ways , Apart from the owner did the players and the staff gave him any respect when he joined us ? look for the interviews he gave after joining us , that will clear everything . Refusing to take a penalty during a match is another thing , not naming your 50M striker in your 5 penalty takers in a final is another thing . He's a fucking 50M striker , what do you expect ? Bench Zlatan or Ronaldo in a match , they will eat you up . And to all the people , who say he's not the same guy , has never seen him play in his liverpool days .Even against Villa , after scoring that thumping header , he constandly made runs , but no one picked them , Lampard tried to play some balls , but he's not Alonso . Play Messi Behind a striker , mark my words , messi won't even score half of the goals he scored in his record breaking season . ( not comparing Messi with Torres ) But Barca did that to unlock his potential , the point is you help your signings to adapt (both mentally and tactically), which we never did in the Torres case . Even take Man U for example , to help RVP they moved Rooney in the midfield .
