Why mate? As an opposing fan, I know you won't agree, but I still fear Torres more than any other striker in the premier league.

That has made my day.

And?

By that logic, Rooney's not worthy of worrying about as you rate Torres more highly.

Why would a United fan worry about Rooney scoring against them?

The Blackburn pen was a cast iron pen. And you got lucky that the keeper didn't get a red. He was far more deserving of a red than Turnbull was last night. TBH I'm not sure about your shout for a pen. It was one of them that aren't given most of the time. And Ba was giving a shove when both players were chasing the long ball. The pen that you were given was a little on the soft side as well. Can't comment on the handballs as the BBC didn't include them on the highlights.

I hope for your sake that you're joking.

I don't really like Tony Pulis but it's hard to disagree with him here, "Suarez, Aguero and Silva are the three world class players in the PL. They would all grace any team in the world. He (Suarez) is something special."

A year ago, you'd have had Torres over any other striker, now he doesn't play for you Suarez is better. I get it.

How anyone can call Suarez world class is beyond me. The other 2 yes, Silva is technically the best player in the league.
