If Torres scores 8 goals tonight

[friedk]

He will set a new record for most goals by a Liverpool player in his first 50 games

Meanwhile, Fernando Torres could play his 50th game for the club against the Belgian champions.

In his 49 appearances so far, El Nino has netted 34 times – a record which is topped only by George Allan's haul of 41 more than a century ago.

Fingers crossed he'll reach 100 before God did.

166 games wasn't it? One quicker than Rushie. That would be some going if he did.

if he does or doesn't score 100 as fast as Robbie did he's still going down in our history as one of our greatest players if he can keep his current form up.

he would go down as one of the greatest players of all time!! 33 goals a year for 8 seasons can just squeeze past rushie as well

Torres, Torres, Torres

just shows the gulf in difference between the 2!
having said that, Kuyt is not a right winger buthas sacrificed himself for the greater good of the team.

Wasn't that stat based on league goals only? Im sure it was 100 league goals in 165 appearances?

Rafa will pull him after 7, just you watch

I bet he would!

Torres has been fantastic, no doubt about that. But a great player does it year in, year out. He's got a long way to go before he makes the squad of our greatest ever XI.

He's on the right track though.
