Reina: It hurts that we are no longer the “Spanish Reds”

|

Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina has spoken of the disappointment of the departure of his Spanish team-mates from Merseyside:

“Now Liverpool are no longer the Spanish Reds. It hurts a little, but life can be like this. I signed a deal and now my only desire is to be focused on the team and improving our situation.”

Spaniards Rafa Benitez, Xabi Alonso and now Fernando Torres have all left Liverpool in the last year and a half.

This week it is even more of Liverpool WAG Carly Zucker!

    Liverpool FC is not about race, creed or nationality. It’s about Liverpool FC, the greatest football club in the world.

    • Eric says:

      He never said Liverpool FC is about race, creed or nationality. He’s just simply expressing his disappointment in seeing his Spanish teammates leave. What’s wrong with you?

  • Eric says:

    Alvaro Arbeloa and Albert Riera as well but we’ve still got many Spanish-speaking players at the club: Suarez, Pacheco, Maxi, Ayala. Lucas and Aurelio also speak Spanish.

  • Lyandra says:

    Just hope that this isn’t a sign that he wants to leave. I think I’ll take it even harder than Torres leaving.

  • Hugh Jass says:

    Pepe is just looking for something to do. He was bored put of his head yesterday.

  • Anonymous says:

    Eric how do you know Lucas and aurelio speak Spanish?

    • Eric says:

      Lucas said in an interview when he came to Liverpool that he can speak Spanish. Aurelio spent 6 years with Valencia in Spain where he learnt Spanish. Portuguese and Spanish are quite similar and if you’re a fluent speaker in either one you would most likely be able to understand the other.

    lucas no habla español, pero aurelio jugo en valencia, asique sabe español

    wiuldn’t mind a statement from our skipper after the week we,ve had, maybe a touch paranoid but i heard a rumour that one of the reasons torres left is because SG has stated if real madrid come in for him he will go!
    i truly believe, under kenny and FSG, we will see number 19 within 3 seasons, sincerely hope stevie and pepe are around to lift it

      @Steve Mcauley,

      If Gerrard like Torres wants to go let him go.
      To be honest with you, I’d rather cash in on him if he wants to go.
      Gerrard cannot question Kenny or he will be out the Door like Torres.
      No player is bigger than the club.
      The most important person in the team is not the player but the Manager.
      Torres exit should is an example to ALL the players that they Kenny is in charge and what he says goes.

  • rosli zainul says:
