Former Liverpool star Robbie Fowler has dispayed his anger with Fernando Torres for leaving the club by mockingly wearing one of the Spaniard's No. 9 jerseys.

Fowler, who plays for the Perth Glory in Australia's A-League, donned the shirt Friday as part of a fundraiser for Queensland state flood victims, saying "there is nothing wrong with the front of the shirt, it is the name on the back."

Fowler, who scored 183 goals in 367 games for Liverpool, added: "it is quite apt to wear it for a worthy cause as it is something myself or any other Liverpool fan wouldn't be seen in."

Torres is set to make his Chelsea debut Sunday against his former teammates at Stamford Bridge.
