Scans confirm Torres fears
-
Fernando Torres is almost certain to miss Liverpool’s crunch clash with Manchester United after scans confirmed he has torn his hamstring.
The Spain superstar has been ruled out for ‘two to three weeks’, after he pulled up after 25 minutes of Sunday’s 0-0 draw with Aston Villa.
With United scheduled to visit Anfield on September 13, even a two-week absence would surely rule Torres out Liverpool’s first title showdown of the season.
A statement on The Reds’ official website announced: "A scan this afternoon has confirmed a hamstring tear in Fernando's right leg.
“He is expected to be out for between two and three weeks.”
Torres will now undergo intensive rehabilitation during the international period, but Liverpool will know they face the possibility of facing United without both he and Steven Gerrard.

Maybe they won't be out lah... Just another tactical move by Pool to keep United guessing so their game plan must change in the event that these 2 players take or don't take to the field...
