Goodbye and good luck Fernando Torres!

Yes I believe he does deserve to benefit further from his own talents and skills.

As for the money that’s being spent on him and others during the British football transfer market – well I’m happy to say it’s not the public purse that’s paying for all of this.

Furthermore, Mr Torres is known as one of the good guys in football - Fernando is a family guy, devoted to his wife and their two kids.

After the success of Spain wining last year’s UEFA World Cup – he was a part of this team – Fernando was bound to wish for that same standard of success.

If it’s the ambition of Torres to leave, then like former Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo, he shouldn’t be held back from achieving his destiny.

I call this; the Wright reason - after retired footballer Ian Wright, when he left Crystal Palace for Arsenal FC.

It was his manager at Crystal who bitterly called Ian a hothead who wouldn’t last at this prestigious club.

Well Mr Wright did outlast the Arsenal manager who purchased him, George Grahame and even played during the early reign of current long-serving present manager Arsene Wenger.

This was despite Ian having a colourful life off the football pitch – his extra marital affairs when he was a professional player are well-known.

The same can be said for his public spat with another former Arsenal manager Bruce Rioch.

But up to this day, he remains one of Britain’s best loved and well-known retired football players.

The bottom line is; Mr Wright wanted to win things and Arsenal was the football club in London which matched his ambitions and was willing to open new pastures for him.

That’s why he too asked for a transfer from CP to the reds of London, despite being offered the same pay at both clubs.

It’s very sad to look back on your life and say: “it might have been.”

So I wish all the best for Fernando on joining Chelsea FC.

At the same time, I think it’s fair to say everyone in the UK will be watching this Sunday’s match between Chelsea and Liverpool, at Stamford Bridge – that’s Chelsea’s home turf.

Extra security will clearly be needed for that match!
