B-Day: Fernando Torres
Happy 25th birthday, Fernando!
What a year it’s been. You’ve scored some seriously cracking goals, delighted and stimulated us with your pouty faces when subbed or left on the bench, raised the side-eye game to a level of mastery, created mass pandemonium when you decided to cut your hair, made some ridiculous advertisements, sunbathed to a healthy shade of back-slap pink, confirmed that you are capable of growing facial hair and even decided to make wedding plans and bring forth a baby Fernandette. Excellent stuff.
The only thing you weren’t able to achieve was a place on the Finest Five list. We know that causes you some pain. It also causes our inbox pain as it collapses under the weight of the gazillions of Fern-fans who spam us daily about the injustice of the situation. Perhaps you should have a word with Mr. Alonso, as he’s the one keeping you out of play and we’re not quite ready to say goodbye to him yet, though that ginger beard of his is helping your cause.
We digress. Congrats and here’s to another great year. We hope you and every one of your freckles have an amazing b-day!

We will get the double this year!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANDO!!! =)
¡Feliz Cumpleaños Nando! Abrazos y besos para ti! As much as I love Nando… Xabi should not be replaced by him… and I don’t think I’ll be able to convince you to shed the Cesc, much as I may want you to boot him off the list, Kickette.
Ok Kickette, I won't e-mail my thoughts and contribute to the clogging of your lovely ladies' inbox, but there is a serious injustice taking place with this Finest 5 drama. I love Xabi as much as the next Liverpool fan, but as far as looks go Fernando takes the cake. Please I am begging…add him. And happy birthday you beautiful beautiful man. And Olalla you are the luckiest woman on the planet. I wish them all the best with their obviously soon to be gorgeous baby!
Yay happy birthday dear Nando! May it be the best so far! And nooo, he should not replace Xabi under any circumstances…!
Congratulations Nando! Make a wish, blow out your candles and have some cake!
Felix Cumpleaños cariñito!
Awww Nando is 25… Happy bday bb! Hope it's will be a wonderful year for you, both on and off the pitch! And yes please, Nando on F5. I don't particularly like that it must be at Xabi's expence – I think there are others I'd rather take off the list… But, if it must be like that then it's Nando for me! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Happy B-day! Is that him in that pic?! He's so adorable.
feeeeeeern my baby hbday! loveyou!
Cumpleaños feliz, Nando.
Happy Birthday! And please shove Cesc off hte F5 as he isn’t playing AT ALL and Nando is playing well and looking hot whilst doing so. And is that picture Nando as a kid? *squee*
Wow 25 already!! Kickette as a B-day pressie for our gorgoeus Nando he should be included in F5…u Can boot cesc out but KEEP Alonso in!!
Congrats to the 25 year old!
OK, after merely catching up on Kickette goings-on I felt the need to register and say my piece on this blatently straightforward issue… OF COURSE Nando should be in the F5!
Freckles, hair, smile…. need I go on? I think I’ve said the “Happy Birthday” message in a few places now but even though it was yesterday, now, I’ll say it again: Happy birthday Nando! I saw the funniest thing on RAWK where one guy said: “Happy birthday Fernando, now get the bevvies in and I don’t want to hear any of this crap about playing in a footie game at the weekend” – Class.
?Felix Cumplea?os cari?ito!
Cumplea?os feliz, Nando.
happy birthday!
Happy Birthday.
Happy Late Birthday Nando! Lets hope that the baby will be as amazing as you. <img src="http://www.kickette.com/images/smileys/raspberry.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="raspberry" style="border:0;" /> hahah
Excuse me? Fernando for Xabi? Nando’s cute and all but he will never take Xabi’s place! In fact, no one will ever take Xabi’s place! NEVER!
Oh, and happy birthday Fernando! <img src="http://www.kickette.com/images/smileys/smile.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="smile" style="border:0;" />
He’s my b-day twin! (He and Lady GaGa) But too bad I’m not such a huge fan of his anymore. But anyway, happy birthday!
happy birthday to the prettiest footballer the world ever saw.. may you score every winning goal and smile that winsome smile of yours ever so often. you deserve the world… !
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANDO!!!! <img src="http://www.kickette.com/images/smileys/grin.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="grin" style="border:0;" />

IT’S CLOUDY HERE BUT I WISH YOU SUNNY N HAPPY DAYS!
It’s my birthday too; exact same day, exact same year as Torres. Too bad Cristiano’s prettier.
And ew, Lady GaGa. Just ew.

Happy Birthday Nando apparently he was the cutest bb in Spain.
Happy Birtday! Now, I can't wait to see the bubba of yours =)
Happy b-day to the hottest/best footballer ever!!! Hope you will finally get your well deserved spot on the finest five list.
Xabi must not be replaced by Torres! NO 19+6=25 easy maths, we`ll get a double this year! and Happy Birthday Fernando
Happy birthday xx
Happy Birthday =) Im all for cesc being booted of the F5 list ! Nando In !!
Happy Birthday Nando. I hope you have a fantastic year with your new wife and new baby. Just hold back on the goals against United.
Oh, I forgot. Xabi out, Nando in. Yes please, Kickette.
I actually like Xabi's ginger beard. I find it sexy and I think it's good luck. Maybe I'm alone in this… I've stated this more than once, but when I see this boy it's like I just drank a mug of sunshine. It's kind of the best way to describe how I feel about him. Each and everyone one of his freckles are precious to me. Feliz Compleaños Nando! *squishy hugs* I am totally down w/ Cesc being booted, but he's never done it for me. *shrugs*
Happy Birthday Nando, Sorry Im Late! xoxoxo
Happy birthday El Nino! Welcome to BA25!
Happy birthday Nino! just stay injury free from now on and may your baby be healthy and as cute as you. =) and I don't agree with Nando replacing Xabi, as much as I like our Nino, the F5 just doesn't seem to be right without Xabi there..
Happy Birthday El Niño! I bet his bubba will be just as cute as him. I'm in agreement on Cesc being dropped and Nando being added to the F5.
Happy Birthday Mr Torres!! Hope it's filled with lots of fun, sparkley things and jelly and ice cream!I can't believe he is 25, I think of him as being about 12 in my head.Oh and Xabi stay strong and clean shaven, don't let the freckled one take your F5 place.
Happy Birthday El Ni?o! I bet his bubba will be just as cute as him. I'm in agreement on Cesc being dropped and Nando being added to the F5.
feliz cumpleaños nando!
happy b’day nando but I have to say he does not look like he’s 25. Anyone with that many freckles can’t be 25. I’d rather see cesc off the f5 than xabi but nando has earned his place- he’s put so much effort in to it lately.
Feliz Compleaños Fernando!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANDO!! have a beautiful becoming-a-daddy year!! xoxo
Happy Birthday Mr Torres!! Hope it’s filled with lots of fun, sparkley things and jelly and ice cream!
I can’t believe he is 25, I think of him as being about 12 in my head.
Oh and Xabi stay strong and clean shaven, don’t let the freckled one take your F5 place.
Mmmmmm…that is one of my favorite Fernando pics. Love him! Delicious! Best striker in the world! Happy Birthday, Darling!
As for the F5….he shouldn’t replace Xabi, he should *join* Xabi. Get Cesc out of there, he’s creepy.
