9. Fernando Torres
Finally, a big signing for us. Fernando Torres, 27 million move from Atletico Madrid. After so many days of excitement throughout the football news, it's finally confirmed.
A record signing for the club as the last one was 14 million. I guess it's time to break many records instead of keeping them. The 22 year old Spanish striker shows from over the years that he is one of the best strikers around. A first team member in the Spanish international team says it all.
Still, people are still afraid of him becoming another Fernando Morienties. He was unable to impress during his short spell in Liverpool. However, I beg to differ. Torres is still young and I believe they are 2 different strikers. Torres has great pace and technique which is suitable for the English League. Morienties was already in his 30s.
Every transfer is a risk and there's no transfer is assured a success. I believe Liverpool have to start taking more risks but of course, safer and sensible risks which will benefit the club.
I can't wait for our new No 9 to be playing in our Red shirt. Still, I guess we have to be patient. He may need some time to adapt. All we can do now is to be patient and see the good football next season.
