Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti has told Fernando Torres to forget about his goals drought.
The £50million striker has had only one shot on target in his eight Premier League games for Chelsea and is still searching for his first goal.
But as Torres prepares for Chelsea's battle against Manchester United in the Champions League on Wednesday, manager Ancelotti said: "Statistics are important in football - but not that important. It's important to have experience, to look at the players, to see their performance for the team.
"Statistics don't show how he is moving for the team. He had four chances against Copenhagen in the Champions League. In the last game he did not have a lot of chances to shoot or to score.
"He has to improve but it's the first two months here. He likes to receive the ball at a certain point, so we have to improve this. Sometimes he moves well on the wrong side of the centre-back and the ball does not arrive at the right time."
