Liverpool fans vent anger at Fernando Torres
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Torres-c13707 left Liverpool where he enjoyed a cult status, in favor of a move to English Champions Chelsea. His controversial decision to pursue his career beyond his present club. was perceived as a betrayal. He set his sights at a certain club in West London where he believed he had a better scope to do justice to his potential.
However, the updates on his persuasion by the Londoners during the last week of the transfer window were headline news through out the world. The fact that so many people ‘started to know’ the inside stories. coerced the NESV men to reject the bid on multiple occasions no matter how lucrative it was.
The apparent indecision helped Henry to come clean in this transfer saga. He would never have expected, as the Russian sitting at the other end of the phone was pretty much sure of what he wanted. This resulted in shockingly an extravagant price. For the player was agreed upon to smash the previous record of the highest transfer fee among the English club football.
There were wide spread protests in Liverpool against Torres’ transfer terming him a traitor. The rebellion act by the Reds’ fans only established a message, that they feared to conceive the idea of their club beyond their hero; the respectable way of handling the situation would have been to respect both the player’s and the club’s decision to part company.
The Liverpool fans were so much embroiled in the Torres transfer saga that they failed to regard their owner did not waste any moment in investing the cash on an immediate replacement on the very same day.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 added fresh blood into their line up with addition of two new faces and it will help them change their fortunes. Instead, the fans chose to rant at the exit of Torres and how their West Londoner counterparts prized away their idol. This was not for the first time that Chelsea is being accused of buying their way to the top. Another English side Manchester City is employing the same tactics.
Some pundits are of the view that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786’s gleaming success has been attributed a certain Roman Abramovic, and his power to spend at will. His millions have helped transform a team of under achievers, into a team winning trophies and challenging for major honors. The success too did not come overnight. It took two good years to build a side before winning back-to-back league titles – the first of the two coming to the Bridge after a void of fifty long years.
But the fact that Roman has stood by the club in the toughest of times says lot about his long term plans at London. Roman has gained experience from his earlier decision regarding Jose Mourinho, and his perspective towards the game has improved. He has matured his own decision making. Since Chelsea’s slump in form he has stood by Carlo Ancelotti whereas earlier he would have dismissed his manager as was the case with Scolari, this speaks for Roman’s improvised vision for the club, and makes a statement of intent that Chelsea is much more to him than a mere commercial venture.
