Liverpool legend Dalglish tribute to Torres

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Sun, 07/05/2009 - 04:36

Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish has paid tribute to Fernando Torres.

Dalglish is returning to the club as part of the Academy staff and told liverpoolfc.tv: "Fernando has been invaluable to Liverpool Football Club in the two years he's been here and he has made a massive contribution, both in terms of the number of goals he's scored and his sheer presence on the pitch.

"A lot of people stood up and took notice when he scored his first goal for the club against Chelsea at Anfield because he took it so brilliantly.

"If people hadn't already taken him seriously, they certainly did from that moment on.

"He's since scored some spectacular goals, but it is his clinicalness that I like - his goal against Blackburn earlier this year was fantastic.

"Torres is a real threat that opponents don't like coming up against and Fernando can be more than delighted with what he's achieved since he came here because he's certainly made a profuse contribution."

torres is the best in the world right now, maybe villa is better but with the number of years torres has left on the pitch he's the best.

real madrid didn't get him because they only buy established talent, and fail. not to say torres wasn't good when he was at atletico, but bringing him to liverpool, we put him on the map throughout the world.

Torres is definitely one of the best strikers in the world...i wonder why Real Madrid didn't come for him...
