Torres only eyeing team glory with Chelsea

Fernando Torres insists it doesn't matter who plays and who scores, as long as Chelsea are successful.

Ahead of tomorrow night's Champions League semi-final second leg against Barcelona, the Spaniard has made it clear that his individual output is nowhere near as important as team glory.

"For me the most important thing is to score goals ? that's what I practise every day ? but we all know that this season has been tough and the team is the most important thing," Torres told UEFA's official website.

"It would be a catastrophe to miss out on the Champions League [next season], and we must be prepared to do anything to achieve this.

"It doesn't matter who plays, who scores, who gives the assists and who stays out. The important thing is that we are successful."
