Fernando Torres has announced his retirement. In full flow, he was wondrous: fast, furious, strong, so technically gifted, nightmarish for markers. He'd have you shouting 'WHAT A [insert expletive] GOAL!' seemingly on repeat.

Watching El Niño at his best was magic. He was magic.

Wishing Fernando Torres a very happy retirement.

Congratulations on a long & decorated career. 🏆

Despite a rocky start at Stamford Bridge, he still won so much more with Chelsea than he ever did at Liverpool. 😉#CFC pic.twitter.com/Kz3fSwEZV3

Fernando Torres taught me the meaning of real heartbreak and he was one of the first players I genuinely fell in love with.

Farewell, El Niño. https://t.co/SdGefwaceK
