Torres tightrope! Striker feeling blue again ahead of Juve clash
Posted Tuesday, September 18, 2012 by Dailymail
Andre Villas-Boas, sacked during the barren run, even moved Juan Mata's peg in the Chelsea dressing room to help the Spanish pair settle in.
Nothing appeared to click. At Liverpool, Comolli considered whether to put forward the unthinkable when he flew to
Florida to discuss the summer transfer targets with Liverpool's owners John W Henry and Tom Werner.
Liverpool's players were used to Torres' ways, ducking out of social nights and rounds of golf with his team-mates and
Torres had been a cult figure at Anfield, scoring 65 goals in 102 appearances in the Barclays Premier League.
It was a mouth-watering prospect for Comolli as he sifted through the statistics.
The 28-year-old scored 81 goals on Merseyside, with 56 of them resulting from a defence-splitting pass.
The Liverpool way suited the Spain striker and at least one player in that dressing room said Luis Suarez would benefit if they could be paired together.
The Uruguayan had been signed in January 2011 as a second striker and Comolli knew he would not be able to match his incredible goalscoring ratio in the Dutch Eredivisie with Ajax.
