Kenny is a smart smart man. He is right to say that. It's not condescending. It's the attitude that a sports team should have, especially going up against a team like Chelsea (keywords: a team like Chelsea)
You focus on Torres, and Drogba picks you apart. And vice versa as well. You have to have a proper game plan against a squad like Chelsea.
As far as the "do you know who we are??"...I wouldn't be so pissed off about it on Monday if it weren't for Fernando Torres telling everyone what playing here meant to him, then going and spitting on it in one felt swoop. I understand he's in his late 20s now, and may feel he needs to accelerate his path to winning a league, and Europe. However, there are many top teams on the continent that he could go to. There are 3 teams that you just can't go to from Liverpool IMO. ManU, Chelsea, Everton. No particular order. They're all insulting. It is exactly like if he were to go from Atletico to Real Madrid when he was in Spain. Historically, Chelsea may have less significance, but today, it's not right to make that move with the animosity. It just isn't.
