Fernando Torres Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Fernando Torres:

No one has given me anything for free.

The Premier League is tough because, as soon as you lose a couple of games, you're out of the race for the league.

Fernando Torres

At Liverpool, winning is customary.

Fernando Torres

When I played against Chelsea, there was always a big motivation because it was a special game; it was always one of the biggest games of the season. This is one of the reasons why I wanted to join Chelsea: because I want to be part of this kind of team.

Fernando Torres

I'm a quiet guy, but on the pitch, it's different. You have to do everything you can to win and help your teammates.

Fernando Torres

You have to win with the team and for the team.

Fernando Torres

Liverpool gave me a second home. I was 24, I left my team, my town, and I went there. My memories there are just amazing. I have no words to thank them enough, and that's why I will always be a fan.

Fernando Torres

As a kid, I never once dreamt of playing for Liverpool.

Fernando Torres

Liverpool had a lot of success under Rafa Benitez, and that is difficult for anyone to follow.

Fernando Torres

The worst part about not playing is when you think that you are ready to do it. You try to get more minutes, taking the chances, but you end up in a situation where things have not gone well for you for weeks - or for years. That is like swimming wet clothes.

Fernando Torres

I left in Liverpool a lot of friends. I have a very good relationship with all of them.

Fernando Torres

I was not a Liverpool fan or a Chelsea fan in Madrid. I was an Atletico fan. I still am. Maybe they're the only badge I will kiss.

Fernando Torres

No one has given me anything for free.

Fernando Torres

You have to know what club you are playing for, or you just play for yourself. Every time I put on a Liverpool shirt, I know it is more than just a football game.

Fernando Torres

I was always fighting with everyone when I was a kid. I was playing with people two or three years older than me, and I had to survive. So I love the physical game, the contact. And I don't know why, but I think football is like this. It is not just touching the ball and stringing together 50 pretty passes consecutively.

Fernando Torres

I want to say thanks to the Chelsea fans because I have seen them very, very happy with me for joining Chelsea.

Fernando Torres

Football is a team sport and not an individual sport. We win as a team, and every individual is better if we are part of the team.

Fernando Torres

I am a big fan of the Gallagher brothers. At Liverpool, they came a few times; they are friends of Steven Gerrard. It was nice to meet them. When I was in Spain, I couldn't speak English, so I couldn't understand the lyrics. When I came to England, I started studying music and trying to understand what my favourite songs said.

Fernando Torres

Everything I have done in my career I have done from my values and doing things the way I like to do. So winning doesn't matter the world for me.

Fernando Torres

The Champions League is a big ambition, and all the footballers want to play in it; it is a very important competition.

Fernando Torres

I had the best three years of my career at Liverpool.

Fernando Torres

Big clubs in Europe always go through difficult spells where it appears as though there is no light at the end of the tunnel. But because they are big clubs, they always come back, and they do so with a vengeance.

Fernando Torres

You have to prove yourself every day. You have to live for today.

Fernando Torres

I always live in the present. I never dream about what might happen. Why? It might not.

Fernando Torres

Liverpool was a special city that took to me; I will always remember how special that place was. I obviously don't miss the rain.

Fernando Torres

Winning the European Championship was a great thing for me, and I understood what it was to win a major trophy and what I had been missing.

Fernando Torres

Liverpool is a massive club in reputation, but as soon as I came here, it felt like Atletico to me. It is a working city, an honest city. The people work all week, and on Saturday they want to go to Anfield and watch the best team in the world.

Fernando Torres

I just do not see myself playing for Madrid. They do not attract me, especially because of my past with Atletico.

Fernando Torres

For me, Real Madrid are just like any other club, like Barcelona, Milan, Bayern Munich, or Inter. Just another big club.

Fernando Torres

At Liverpool, I had almost everything but titles. I felt like a king, but the team was falling apart.

Fernando Torres

Fitness is important, but the most important thing is how you adapt and the way you feel physically. To adapt to a new position. To try to change your game.

Fernando Torres

If we win the Champions League, everyone is a better, more recognised player, but if you win an individual award and nothing with your team, it means nothing.

Fernando Torres

The Premier League is very difficult football and very different to when you play in Europe, but the player has to have experience to adapt, and this is the key point.

Fernando Torres

In your life, you go through a difficult situation or a very good situation, and you have different moods, but you learn things from your experiences.

Fernando Torres

I am a professional, and I always fulfil my deals.

Fernando Torres

My father worked every day; my brother and sister had to travel many hours to study, so Atletico were for people like us.
