Liverpool plan improved offers for Ashley Young and Charlie Adam as Fernando Torres departure looks increasingly likely - report
Liverpool are beginning to plan for life without Fernando Torres as they look to spend the money generated from the World Cup winner's departure.
Liverpools softening stance on Torres departure has alerted Chelsea, who look set to increase their bid of £35million on Monday.
The west London club are still not willing to pay the £50m that Liverpool seem to be after but they are hopeful of finding a resolution after the Reds indicated they would be favourable towards a cash plus Nicolas Anelka deal.
The Frenchman is not keen on the move to Liverpool, according to Sky Sports, but Chelsea have been encouraged by Liverpools supposed willingness to negotiate on Torres transfer.
According to the Guardian, Liverpool will increase their bid for Blackpools wantaway captain, Charlie Adam, on Monday. The Merseyside club have had a £4m bid rejected by the Lancashire club but are willing to bid up to £10m to get their man.
Blackpool boss Ian Holloway has indicated previously that an offer of £10m would be considered by the club who paid 20 times less than the proposed selling fee.
Liverpool are also looking into the possibility of signing Aston Villas England international Ashley Young. The wingers contract runs out at the end of next season and has thus far refused to sign a new deal which may force Villas hand if they receive a suitable offer.
The Reds are reportedly ready to offer £18m for the player to test the resolve of Gerard Houllier and Villa owner Randy Lerner.

Liverpool player describes Fernando Torres' efforts this season as laughable - report
A Liverpool player has labelled the Prozone stats of Chelsea target Fernando Torres as laughable and accused the want-away striker of playing for himself, according to the Daily Mail.
In a week in which Torres demanded the route be cleared for his Anfield exit, the un-named player also said the personality of the World Cup winner sometimes raised eyebrows at the training ground.
The source told the paper: His efforts for the team this season under Roy Hodgson made everyone notice.
His Prozone stats for some games were laughable for a Premier League striker.
Torres, who reached the 50 goal mark in just 72 games for Liverpool, was forgiven for his selfishness as a result of his undoubted ability, according to the source.
On the pitch he'd definitely play for himself rather than the team," the source said.
Even the real pros like Stevie Gerrard and Jamie Carragher noticed it but when Torres is on top form you'd forgive him anything.
The report goes on to say that Torres is self-absorbed and not loved by his team-mates in the same way compatriot Pepe Reina is.
He has always been a complex character," the unnamed player added. "He is so naturally gifted he's always been totally self-absorbed.
For the first year we'd put his quietness down to a lack of fluent English, but then he'd come out with something word perfect, which made you realise he understood what was going on all the time.
He has always been admired by his team-mates, but not loved. He hasn't endeared himself in the way that Pepe Reina has, for example.
The 26-year-old submitted a transfer request on Friday evening and is expected to complete a move away from Anfield by Monday if the Reds can thrash out a deal with Chelsea.

Liverpool have targeted Newcastle United striker Andrew Carroll as a possible replacement for Fernando Torres .
According to the Sun, the Reds will make £30-million move for the 22-year-old if Torres leaves for Chelsea.
The paper says Liverpool are prepared to triple Carroll's £30,000-a-week wages.
Torres has handed in a transfer request at Anfield, and although it was rejected by Liverpool, speculation is rife that the Reds will ultimately accept Chelsea's bid, said to be in the region of £50 million.
The Sun also claims Liverpool are planning to make a £15m bid for Aston Villa winger Ashley Young and an improved £8m offer for Blackpool midfielder Charlie Adam.
Torres could remain at Liverpool following agent miscommunication
Spaniard set to stay as Liverpool move in for Young
Fernando Torres is desperately trying to backtrack on his transfer request and may well stay at Liverpool after all.
Torres is said to be furious with his agent for putting in the transfer request AFTER Liverpool had done the deal to sign Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez from Ajax.
Now unless Liverpool are tempted by a near £60m bid for the Spanish World Cup winner's services, with Chelsea the only name in the frame at the moment, it is likely the two parties will get their heads together and work out a peace deal.
The prospect of Torres teaming up with Suarez is a mouth-watering one and he may be persuaded to stay, even though he is thought to be desperate to join a club where he can achieve his dream of winning trophies. That won't be helped by the fact that Liverpool are unlikely to be in the Champions League next season but with Suarez alongside him the trophy-winnig days might not be too far away if all parties can be patient.
Liverpool are also set to show another massive declaration of intent with an eleventh hour bid to land their number one target Ashley Young before today's deadline. But with Manchester United hovering in the wings and Villa set to offer Young a lucrative improved contract to stay, the final outcome is far from certain at the moment and anyone wanting Young will have to at least match Villa's £15m asking price to have any chance of landing him.

anything according to the Sun is fake and made-up.
they hate LFC and LFC hate them to the core.

Lol!
Actually I was already gonna post pics of before and after I put down Torres' banners, poster, pictures at my cubicle then replace with Stevie G gigantic poster. Guess I'll just wait till tomorrow to decide. :bsmilie:
King Kenny no nonsense guy, so if Torres heart is no longer with us, let him go ....... better than always having a half heart display....
Let's move on.......
Let's move on.......

His heart already change to blue color liao.
The report could well be true since Torres was away in Spain when Chelsea came in with the bid.
I do hope that Torres's heart is still with Liverpool. Now with Suarez a done deal and if Torres does indeed remain at Liverpool, a solid strike partnership can be formed.
Torres lack of form after his injury has spread to into the World Cup. If he is somebody who truly wanted to leave Liverpool, having such poor form is not going to do him any good. So I think he should be given the benefit of the doubt and fans should get behind him if indeed there is miscommunication with his agent.
