Romeu hails Torres influence for Chelsea victory
Oriol Romeu was pleased for Fernando Torres after his performance in Chelsea's win over Sunderland.
It was Torres' wonder strike which led to Frank Lampard knocking home the winner.
"The people used to say that if he [Torres] doesn't score then he is not playing good, but that is not true," insisted Romeu to chelseafc.com.
"He is playing good and he helped us to get the goals. He was playing very good in the game at Wolves and now he played another big game for us. Every ball he fights and he is big player for us.
"If he is happy, if he is enjoying it on the pitch then he is going to play better and he helps us much more than if he is not enjoying it on the pitch. He is playing very good in the two last games and that is good news for us."

I guess it was even quieter in the away-supporters section of Liberty Stadium, Swansea.
At least Spurs got a point than put them 10 points ahead of Arsenal
