Liverpool's Torres: Chelsea the match I want

Liverpool striker Fernando Torres admits he's jumping out of his skin to face Chelsea tomorrow.

The Spanish ace said: "The match against Chelsea at Anfield is the game that I've been most excited about playing in since I signed for Liverpool.

"It looks like the Champions League matches at Anfield and the big ones in the league like facing Chelsea will be indescribable.

"I've been told I have to be there in person to live and feel the moment when the fans at Anfield sing 'You'll never walk alone'.

"I haven't heard the Liverpool fans singing a song for me yet but I hope to play well enough to convince them to dedicate a song for me."

Torres has been inundated with requests from Spain for tickets for the Chelsea cruncher - and he is hunting a mansion so he can accommodate the flood of visitors hoping to fly over.

He said: "Lots of people have asked me about coming to watch and so many of my Spanish friends support Liverpool now. I'm still in an apartment as I've seen various houses but I haven't decided yet. I'm looking for something big so a lot of people can come and visit."
