We are getting better under Kenny Dalglish: Fernando Torres
Liverpool’s Spanish ace, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Torres-c13707 believes that the team is working better under the guidance of Kenny Dalglish and is desperate to get back to winning ways.
He said that he is disappointed with the draw against Everton like everyone else, especially after dominating the game, however, the star striker was adamant that an elusive win is not that far.
The former Atletico Madrid star looked in great touch particularly in the first half. He once shrugged off http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Heitinga-c18862 but his shot hit the post. Torres then smashed another thunderbolt which was brilliantly saved
by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tim-Howard-c35095.
Although disappointed with the result, Torres was satisfied with the performance of the team. “We are disappointed with the result but we are improving and moving in the right direction,” said the Spaniard.
“We will see what happens in the next game. We need to start picking up three points in every game. If we had taken the chances we had, particularly in the first half, we would have been winning by two or three at half-time. But that's football,” he said.
Torres believes that his team had a lapse in concentration at the start of the second half which could have cost the Reds all three points. However, Liverpool responded well and came back into the game through a http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dirk-Kuyt-c11348 penalty.
“In the second half they started well and scored two goals. After that we had a good reaction and got level at 2-2. We had chances at the end but you don't always get the reward you deserve when you play well. We are disappointed by that,” said Torres.
Liverpool’s next game is against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the third week of January 2011. It was Liverpool’s home defeat at the hands of the same team towards the end of 2010 which sparked the sacking of Roy Hodgson as manager of the team.
Liverpool will be hoping to take the revenge against a team who has done brilliantly against good oppositions of late. They have beaten http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 since beating the Reds and recently they almost came from behind to earn a point at Eastlands. Mick McCarthy’s
men were down 4-1 but showed great team spirit to make it 4-3 at the final whistle.
Torres acknowledges that fact that a victory against Wolves will put Liverpool in great stead for the rest of the season. A maiden win for Dalglish will give everyone at the club a huge lift.
Wolves’ game is the last game before http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wolves-c40952. Torres believes that it is important the Liverpool return to winning ways as it is the results the
breed confidence but the recent performances have been encouraging.
He said, “Our target is to win games. We will see what happens at the end of the season but it's a long time since our last win. We are playing better. The most important thing is getting results but if we keep playing like that they will come soon.”
Torres made his 100th league appearance for the Reds in their 2-2 draw against city rivals, Everton. Even though he failed to mark his 100th league appearance with a goal, his tally of 63 in 100 is sure to make any striker in the world
proud.
Considering that, Torres has had a disappointing 2010-11 season so far, scoring only 7 times from 21 attempts. He will have to improve that record massively if http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 are to return to winning ways.
