Tests for Torres

Thu, 05 Nov 20:01:58 2009

Fernando Torres underwent tests at a Liverpool hospital on Thurdsay on the serious groin injury which is threatening to ruin his season.

The Spain striker played 87 minutes of Liverpool's 1-1 Champions League draw with Lyon on Wednesday, a result which virtually ends their hopes of progress from Group E into the last 16.

Torres played with pain throughout the match, before flying back with the Liverpool party on Thursday morning.

Later on Thursday he attended a Liverpool hospital where more tests were carried out on his injury.

Manager Rafael Benitez fears that Torres will eventually need an operation on what he describes as a "poor man's hernia."

However, Liverpool are loathe to go down that route until every other avenue has been explored.

  2. The more you folks think it is just a­ ''crisis'' that will pass, the more I­ realise you are not watching with both eyes and you are­ not thinking with both halves of your brain. Liverpool­ manager spent loads of money on buying average (or­ below average) players and you really don't have a­ squad that will come out of the so-called­ ''crisis''. In other terms, only­ another great performance (including diving­ performance) from Captain Criminal Gerrard, combined­ with a quick and full return to form from Torress, can­ take you out of your misery. The other players would­ not even start in Hull. Your problem is having a bad­ coach, no money to fix his wrong doings, and his­ continious refusal to use the club's youngsters.­ This means you are simply doomed... Therefore it is not­ a ''crisis'', it is a tragedy, a­ genocide..

  7. john g: seriously look at your facts, liverpool has­ already spent loads of money (top three) supplied from­ their owners and other sources while, it's just­ Rafa's choices of what he does with the money, who­ he buys that makes it seem like he hasn't gotten­ enough money from the manager to build a good team. If­ he had spent the actual money he got on a succesful­ team then no one would be crying about not getting­ enough money. Stop blaming your frailties on yanks and­ money and look at the talent on the field, or lack of.

  11. These 2 bloody yanks need to make the money they­ promised available in January so Rafa can buy another­ decent striker Villa or Silva perhaps.
