Spain coach Vicente del Bosque insists there's no problems with Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez over his selection of Fernando Torres for their friendly against England.
Although he has not said so publicly, there is a feeling Benitez would have preferred it if Torres had remained on Merseyside this week rather than fly home for his country's encounter with England in Seville.
However, Del Bosque has no intention of getting drawn into any war of words with Benitez, the club coach who supplies more of his players than anyone else.
"There has been no conflict with Rafa Benitez," he said.
"I have always had good contact with him and was in Villarreal earlier this season when Liverpool played a friendly there.
"There is a perfectly correct relationship with Liverpool. I spoke to him last Friday and of course we spoke about the players and their physical condition.
"It was a perfectly cordial discussion and I would rather base my decision on what Rafa has said to me, not what has appeared in the press."
