Fernando Torres is thrilled with life at Liverpool after scoring for the first time in front of the Kop in Saturday's 6-0 drubbing of Derby.

"I am learning quickly and my teammates have played an important role, along with everyone at the club who have all gone out of their way to help me," Torres told liverpoolfc.tv.

"I feel as if I have been at Liverpool for a long time. I intend to stay here for many years to come and I am really pleased with everything - my new teammates, the fans, the city, the stadium and, of course with my first goal at Anfield versus Chelsea.

"The experience is more fulfilling when things work out and if we can maintain our recent form, I am sure that everything will continue to move along nicely."
