Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez wants Fernando Torres to regain his focus. Benitez insists he is unconcerned by Torres' occasional displays of irritation on the pitch but has asked him to channel his energies more productively, for the good of both himself and the team.
"Fernando knows he has to focus a little bit more," Benitez said. "We were talking about this at half-time (against United) so that is something that will be better for him and better for the team. He can score more goals by concentrating on football.
"All strikers, especially top-class strikers, they are marked a little bit more closely than others and that is normal. It is not easy every game. People don't understand when you are a player on the pitch and you are fighting and sometimes you cannot understand these things."
