Man City and Torres

[Tee]

I'd quite like some of them

You are one sick sicko.

[RedReet]

Arggh I'm half a sleep and click yes by mistake, MrM can you change it for me please?

I wouldn't sell Torres for any less than £100m

£20m less than Casillas?

No chance!

[Craig_H]

I dont see the point.

Our objective is to win things, not to make money.

Sure you could spend the £70m on other players, but there's no guarantee they'd succeed. Torres is proven and solves any striker problem for potentially 8 years. Why sell him?

No thanks. You dont sell your best players. We're not Spurs.

get to ****

[danwms]

the poll should not be would you sell them but do you think the owners would sell him.

Completely different.

Completely different.

A poll can be for anything you want. They are flexible that way.

[Imy]

They can have Robbie Keane if they like for £70m

[Vermilion]

According to BBC gossip column:

"Manchester City are determined to spend £70m to sign a "world superstar" in the January transfer window with Kaka, Lionel Messi, Fernando Torres, Carlos Tevez, Cristiano Ronaldo and Samuel Eto'o all in the frame. (Independent)"

With Torres' hamstring injuries this season, and the school of thought that they will affect him to the extent that he will no longer be the player he once was, would you go for it??

I'm not as sure as I would have been before the injuries.. but wouldn't. But 70m could buy a lot of player..

It would'nt imo go on players, nowhere near all of it anyway, not a chance. But i wouldn't put it past our two ****tin Bandits at the helm to sell him.

[Craig_H]

the poll should not be would you sell them but do you think the owners would sell him.

Completely different.

Maybe it should be 'would torres sign for city (after he stopped laughing at the prospect)' because that's the only important factor.

I woulden't he is a world-class striker and still very young with potential to develp even further. He might have a few injury problems this season, but I am not worried, more or less every player goes through one such spell in his career. If he was closing in on 30 or his name was redknapp it would be another matter.

Selling out the best player material shows a lack of ambition and not a path to be taken unless the player really wants to leave.

Torres

cant believe people are even suggesting Torres is injury prone and we should be looking to get rid. One time we get a World Class player in.........

[Bari]

£70m my arse

Just e-mailed the Skiekh, said he could have Shaggy's arse for £70m an offer is being prepared.

[Trippendicular]

Even within the current McClub climate, Torres is still priceless. He's one of those players that no amount of money could ever truly reflect his brilliance. I can't think of any player in the world I'd trade him for, as he's proven himself at Liverpool and is (in)arguably without peer in his position. As Craig says, we're here to win things, not make profits, and I'd put Torres in the World's top three players in terms of title-winning players (ironically enough, the other two would be Ronaldo and Messi. Perhaps the Balloon D'or isn't too far off).

Erm, it's a public poll - you can see who voted for what yourself.
