Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone is happy with the form of Fernando Torres.
Simeone insists Torres has a place in his plans.
"He's in really good shape. He came in really well prepared from the pre-season where he worked really well," said the coach.
"He needs to have a lot demanded of him and we're demanding a lot of him, in line with his quality. Last year he did well. He's competing really well and giving us options up front which is what we need."
