Message: [QUOTE="Black Philip, post: 2353087, member: 8780"] I think if this transfer window has taught/reminded us anything it's that the vast majority of footballers are nothing but mercenaries. Darren Bent lied his **** off in front of the camera, talks about how he wants to be part of what Quinn/Bruce are building, kisses the badge in front of thousands of our fans, tweets about how much he loves the club.... then it's all over in a flash. Less than a week after the transfer he is kissing the Villa badge. Torres is much the same, all signs pointed to him being a committed Liverpool player, to bring them back from mid table to challenge for the title... but then Chelsea come along with their sickening amounts of money and he pisses off as fast as it can be arranged. At the end of the day you have to love the club more than the players and remember to do so. It's very rare to get a player who loves the club as much as the fans, someone who will turn down the lure of more money and the increased chance of trophies so they can represent the team that means so much to them. The Gerrards, the Shearers, the Le Tissiers... they are a dying breed unfortunately. [/QUOTE]
