Fernando Torres was next to Maxi and Petrov this morning because they had operated them of their respective injuries in the cross ligament of their knees. The red and white captain talked with his teammates after the operation. “They were doze, but the visit of their family and friends are going to support them. We have cheered them up. We know that this is the worst part of football when you are seriously injured. Maybe in these moments it is when we realized how important is not to have this kind of ailment. I have seen them very good. We come sad to the hospital and they are the ones who cheer us up. They are players that have a lot of illusion”.

Regarding if some new player will come instead of the two players; basic pieces in the line of Javier Aguirre, Torres indicate that “until December everything about talking on signing new players doesn’t solve anything, because they can’t help us until they come. If players come to strengthen the team, whoever he is, it will be perfect, but it is not necessary talking and talking. We have to look after the team and try not to miss the two sick leaves of Martin Petrov and Maxi Rodriguez”.
