Chelsea No2 Newton pleased for Torres after Cup goal

Chelsea No2 Eddie Newton was delighted to see Fernando Torres score in their 6-0 Capital One Cup win over Wolves.

Newton was pleased with Tuesday night's display from a much-changed side - even Torres scored, probably to the striker's relief.

But Newton said: "Relief isn't the word, to be honest. Nando's positive. We're always talking with him and he's very positive. He's feeling a lot sharper.

"The goals will come. We all believe that. You can't expect it to be a flood all of a sudden."
