From
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernando_Torres. He's actually prolific at A. Madrid as well.
Torres started his career with Atlético Madrid, progressing through their youth system to the first team squad. He made his first team debut in 2001 and finished his time at the club having scored 75 goals in 174 La Liga appearances.
As you mentioned, we unearthed these gems. That's the sweet part. When they become men of substance, they leave us for another team. To me, that's the bitter part. I'm sure you will agree that we will welcome them back with open arms anytime right? Even Mascherano won the Champions League with Barcelona 2 seasons back after leaving us. Not too good for us that when a player leaves us, he wins silverware. That plays into the minds of existing players.
On a separate note, this is brilliant stuff. Do check it out.
