Fernando Torres received the Liverpool Post’s player of the year award for the second year running, the last player to do it was Kenny Dalglish back in our glory days of the Eighties.
Torres, speaking via video-link, expressed his delight at winning the trophy again and seems very happy at life on Merseyside: “The people have been very kind to me since the first day. I feel here like I do at home. I can go to any part of the city and receive kind words.
I get on well with Evertonians too, it is a big surprise that I can talk with Everton fans about everything. They respect me and I respect them.”
No, he is not joining Everton next season.
On the contrary, he is determined to do his utmost to help Liverpool qualify for the Champion’s League:
“I’ve only played 20 games and I’m desperate to help the team. I hope to score as many goals as possible until the end of the season.”
So, despite all the rumours in the press, El Nino is fully committed to helping the Liverpool cause, well done young man.
