Liverpool ace Torres: Chelsea right time to break Anfield duck

Liverpool ace Fernando Torres is desperate to end his Anfield scoring drought today against Chelsea.

Torres told liverpoolfc.tv: "It was my first game at Anfield in front of the Liverpool fans so it is a very special memory for me. I also scored my first goal in that game so it was the beginning of everything.

"Because of this there would be no game that would be better for me to score again at Anfield.

"I know there will be so many people watching the game and our fans will be really wanting us to win so hopefully I can play at my best and score a goal.

"The record is something I want to change - for me, for my team and for the fans.

"Like I said, this has been a strange season for me and I have not been able to play in as many games or score as many goals as I would have liked but hopefully this will change."

Torres added: "But more than anything I want to win a trophy with Liverpool and for this to happen we have to start winning more games.

"It's not just in the league either, we also have the FA Cup and the Champions League to aim for, so there are a lot of big games coming up.

"But we are in a good position in all of these competitions and we have to be positive. I hope that this season will turn out to be a good one for Liverpool and for me."
