Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva has hailed Reds striker Fernando Torres as the best in the world. The Brazilian told Liverpool's official website: "It's great to see Fernando playing so well and scoring a lot of goals. He has so much power, he's quick, he works so hard and he's a very good finisher. We are really happy that he is on our team because when he is playing like this it's really difficult to stop him.
"His goals are very important for us. When he gets the ball we always know he will create something. If he has a chance he will usually take it.
"I don't think there is a better striker than him in the world at the moment. Hopefully he will stay at this level for the whole season."
