Torres back in Spanish squad

http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11669_5982920,00.html

No doubt he'll come back injured

 

Think Rafa has been talking to del Bosque and they have a understanding that he wont be played unless he is fit and ready to play..

 

Baffled by this. Only last week Del Bosque said he hopes Liverpool rested Torres a good bit before the world cup and then when he has the perfect opportunity himself to ensure Torres gets a week of rest he calls him into the squad.

 

know doubt he will play ELINO

 

About 80% of his injuries have been coming back from Spain and you'd think for a friendly they'd blood a few of the less experienced forwards in case he doesn't make it to the World Cup

 

dont understand why rafa doesnt just pull a ferguson and make up a calf strain or something?? no doubt ill turn on ssn next week and nando will have pulled a strain some fcukin were!

 

FFS!!! Not again

 

here we go again

 

Injury on the way just as he comes fit, spain really need to revise their training program when it comes to Torres

 

Cant understand how the fcuk his allowed go on international duty when his just back from injury and not fully fit!! I say Rafa must be raging over it.

 

Ill prob get savage abuse for this but fck Torres if he comes back injured. Hes been out too long this season and the club has invested time and money in geting him fit. He should think long term and miss this meaningless friendly, its not as if he'll lose his place and concentrate on his fitness at Melwood and be fully fit for the eun in and then head off the Africa

 

I agree! Why should he play in a friendly when the team who pay his wages,and have already went far too many games without him over 3 seasons after spain duty,are gently ushering him back to first team action!!!

 

Rafa, tell Del Bosque to fcuk off. Nando's only had 15 minutes or so, & as usual he'd probably come back injured, AGAIN!

 

i tink he is afraid if he told the spain manager no he mite lose his place for the world cup

 

Agree with this but i our own training programme cant be over looked i mean look at the amount of Muscle injuries our players have suffered this season?

Dont think he will be played i think he will be jsut brought over for bonding and such.........................

 

Arrived in France ... nice top

 

his club comes first, who pays his fooking wages. and if he did come back from international duty injured, what will spain do for liverpool then? fook all

and it a friendly match aswell, for fook sake like.

**forgive my french**

 

Many other players in his position would have walked to City/Chelsea/Barca long ago for bigger wages and a better chance to challenge for silverware. I for one am thankful he's still with us and I don't forget his contribution when he goes playing for his national side

 

we shouldn't let players hold us to ransom and i know that Rafa wouldn't. he's with us now, which is marvellous because he's the best striker in the world.
but if he hadn't have got injured with his country before, he possibly would have played more with us and we possibly would have been further up the league.
as i said, Rafa wouldn't let anyone hold him to ransom, so the day a player is disruptive and/or doesn't want to be there - they know where the gate is.

Ok ok, he's torres and he's the best in the business, but he should be treated like all of the other players.

And besides, the other players you speak about - i would imagibe Adebay-moneygrabber is in that category. Certainly wouldn't put nando in the same bracket as many of the money grabbers at City.
