Liverpool boss Benitez: Torres will continue to improve

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez says there's so much more to come from last night's matchwinner Fernando Torres.

The Spain international took his scoring tally to 26 for the season with a typically stylish goal to see off Inter Milan in the San Siro and secure a 3-0 aggregate success, and the Reds boss is convinced more is to come from El Nino.

"We have a lot of confidence in him (Torres)," Benitez told liverpoolfc.tv. "He is a threat for defenders that is clear.

"We are really pleased with how he has adapted to the Premier League and we are waiting for more goals. 26 is good but he can get more. He is a player with a good mentality and wants to improve every day."
