87 tweets with Luis Garcia
Former Kop favourite Luis Garcia last night spent one hour online interacting with Liverpool fans in our first ever 'Twitter Tuesday' on @LFC.
Supporters from all over the world logged online to ask one of our Istanbul heroes questions on topics ranging from his Anfield playing days, to his life off the field and his new career now with Puebla FC in Mexico.
If you missed the fascinating question and answer session - which was tweeted live on our official twitter feed - then you can read the full transcript below right now.
Please remember that Luis was getting through as many questions as he possibly could before he had to leave for training - and he managed an impressive 87 in just 60 minutes - so we can excuse any spelling errors from a man who, after all, doesn't speak English as his first language. The transcript below is presented exactly as it was displayed on @LFC during the live chat.
Everybody at @LFC would like to thank Luis for giving up an hour of his time on Tuesday night and we wish him the very best for the rest of the season and beyond.
