Many young footballers love to see this man play, and they hope that one day they’ll be mentioned alongside of the man Fernando Torres. Really, there are not many people who can actually say that they do not enjoy watching El Nino do some amazing things with the ball, something that he has built up quite a name for himself doing. Fernando Torres is something that’s genuinely special, and he really has to be seen to be believed. Since his first professional game in 2001, there have been very few that can say that they can get the better of the man who leads this powerful Liverpool attack.
There have been more than a few debates as to who the best player in the world is, and no one will scoff if Torres is mentioned, more often than not. In less than 10 years, he has changed the way that we think about the sport, breaking the record of how many goals are scored in a season set by Fowler in the 1995-96 season. The most interesting point about the man would have to be his start as a goalkeeper, and how we would view Liverpool if he never started as a striker. It’s something that’s a little hard to imagine, considering his success as one of the best strikers in the entire world.
It also doesn’t help having someone like Steven Gerrard on your team, either.
