Liverpool boss Dalglish delighted for 2-goal Torres: So much more to come

Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish is excited by the prospects of a return to top form for Fernando Torres.

Torres struck twice in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Wolves at Molineux to take his tally for the season so far to nine in the Barclays Premier League and leave the boss delighted with his contribution.

"Certainly since I have come in here he has been nothing short of fantastic for us in the way he has applied himself in training and on the pitch," Dalglish told liverpoolfc.tv.

"Apart from his goals, he's worked tirelessly upfront to try and help us. I can only - and will only - assess what he's done since we've come in, and we've been absolutely delighted with him and the other players as well."

Dalglish believes Torres's form is indicative of the current mood amongst the squad.

And the manager is pleased with the determination and unity his players have displayed in attempting to raise their performances.

He added: "I hope his (Torres's) best is yet to come.

"We've done training the way we think training should be done. There has never been any doubt about many of the player's abilities here and there wasn't any doubt that they weren't doing as well as they were capable of doing.
