Check out this stud! Liverpool have finally signed an A-list striker, for a club-record 26.5 million pounds. That's, like... $476 million dollars. Roughly. His name is Fernando Torres, he's Spanish, and until now he scored goals for Atletico Madrid and Spain. A YouTube search of his name will yield a few highlight reels, and more than a few photo montages of his abs. Dreamy.
I won't lie: I'm glad to finally have some glamour at Anfield (sorry Crouch and Bellamy, but... yeah), but this dude had better unleash a flood of goals to justify the loss of my current favorite Spaniard, the Five-foot-Seven Slice-of-Heaven, Luis Garcia. My little buddy went back to Madrid to help ease the pain of a $476 million-dollar bill. Roughly.
While on the soccer tip, the next reported target for Liverpool is Man United defender Gabriel Heinze. I'm not particularly optimistic about it, as Premiership rivals aren't in the habit of selling each other quality players.
Also, Arsenal snagged a new striker out of the blue yesterday: The Brazilian by-way-of Croatia, Eduardo Da Silva. I don't know much about him, as he was playing in the nether-regions of Eastern Europe, but I think it's safe to say that he'll have a hard time filling the stylish shoes of Thierry Henry.
