Fernando Torres: Liverpool owners lied to me

Fernando Torres says that he can't comprehend why Liverpool fans "hate" him following his departure to Chelsea in January.

Fernando Torres believes that the Liverpool supporters have a misconceived perception of their American owners.

The Chelsea striker has endured strong criticism from the Reds' fans since his shock departure from Merseyside in January, but the frontman believes that the supporters are unaware of the true story.

"The Liverpool fans don't know the truth about why I signed for Chelsea," Torres reportedly told Spanish television. "The fans don't even know half of what happened. They don't know what the people in charge at Liverpool are like - they have a completely different perception of what they are like.

"They made promises that they didn't keep and I left because I realised I didn't have time to be part of a project that would take years.

"I have nothing against the Liverpool fans. I didn't want to leave Liverpool the way I did but the club lied. I was let down and I don't understand why the fans hate me."

The Spain international joined Stamford Bridge for £50m but has only netted three goals in 25 appearances for the former Premier League champions.
