Popular Post! tmessy 139 Posted August 15, 2012 Popular Post! Share Posted August 15, 2012 I don't agree. Very good interview, you often hear about how Torres isn't the typical footballer. He comes across as articulate, considerate and honest, generally a good guy, it's no wonder do many want him to succeed.being in a individual sport myself, such as swimming, you always hear people who individually critique you or praise you, no matter what you do; and the best part is, i can see the real person inside nando and that is what strikes me so much and why i can relate to him...what people dont understand is these athletes are real people, they have to go home to their families, they have their own problems and issues off the pitch (or the pool in my case ha) and to be honest, its the writers and the people who never were "athletes" who do not understand...watching him score is different than anybody, when he celebrates you can just read his expressions of him saying "finally!" and there is just so much emotion poured into it than just a "fuck yeah im the best"... and i appreciate that...he is a REAL guy, with a family and problems... shoot he even married his high school sweetheart hahahacheers el nino... im ready for a great season for you and an even better one for the blues!!chelsea chelsea chelsea! underdrog, Nando, Muzchap and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kojo 4,676 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I can't believe some of you people are getting mad because he's getting abused, well if you want to call it abuse anyway...If it getting on Torres's back i would rather have it. Instead of us having high expectations of him, like we have always done after one good game he has had, like Stoke away last season. It usually back fires on us, yes, yes now we have a new team with creativity at least. But still, Torres doesn't seem the most confident of strikers, it's best that he hasn't got too much pressure on him and let him do his thing. I would much rather us be 'well he still has to prove himself and this doesn't mean anything yet' rather than 'OMG EL NINO IS BACK, WERE GONNA WIN THE LEAGUE'... okay slight exaggeration there I'll admit, but you know what I'm getting at.

Fulham Broadway 17,313 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Torres quote"They’ve helped me so much, so so much. And honestly, sometimes I can’t understand why. I’m a foreigner, a foreigner who’s played well at another English club at that. Going by the typical Spanish mentality, the first people who’d have turned against me would’ve been them, the fans. Turns out I wasn’t meeting any of the expectations they had for me whatsoever, but they were there for me, they supported me. This people are different. Sometimes I thought to myself “I’ll just stay here on the bench, be quiet and make no noise, I don’t even want to play”, but then they asked me to play, they wanted me out there. They’ve lifted my spirits so many times, sometimes more than my own teammates did. Whatever I do here from now on, I’ll do it for them. That’s why I want to win another Champions League. I want to win it for the fans." :yes: :blue scalf: :blue scalf: :blue scalf: :yes: :blue scalf: :blue scalf: BlueLion. and daBlackMamba7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has he spoken about the Liverpool fans?Yup, he said theyre smelly bastards.Youre right there are probably a handful of loyal players in the Prem league -but us Chels fans are a right special bunch and it's becoming apparent he loves us at games now for the faith we've kept. headhunter23 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
