Chelsea striker Torres: Benitez style suits me best

Fernando Torres admits he's already recognising changes under new Chelsea manager Rafa Benitez. Torres feels he is benefiting from a more direct approach under Benitez.

He said: "We are playing a bit differently. We don't pass the ball as much as we did before in the final third of the pitch and we try to play more direct and explode the players forward with Victor Moses or me or Eden Hazard on the left.

"We are using the quality of Oscar or Mata in the middle and we are attacking more and making more chances.

"We are working as a team, as we did in the beginning of the season with Robbie [Di Matteo], but normally it takes some time when a new manager arrives and changes things like this, but the results last Wednesday and on Saturday are going to give us more confidence, the only thing we need now."
